Great stay in beautiful surroundings!
Lovely one night stay and a beautiful setting. Super cosy! We would have loved a later check out rather than 10am as we felt quite rushed to leave. We didn’t have anything to put our dirty linen in but everything else was just perfect!!

Super short stay!
Fantastic location, really comfy bed, we would definitely stay again! We had a few questions and they got back to us in an instant. Most importantly is that it’s one of the most beautiful parts of the marsh and you’re right in the middle of it! You can almost smell the smugglers groaning as they carry their loot through the soggy channels.

Satisfaction as expected
Shepherds Huts seem all the rage at the moment and it was partly to satisfy our curiosity that we booked. The two huts are closer to one another that they really need to be resulting in being able to see into our shower room from the neighbouring patio; a good curtain would help. But we had no noise from our neighbours. The hut is well equipped for the couple of nights we stayed but honestly we were glad not to have booked longer and that the weather was good. Space, we appreciate, is at a premium here and the use of it was very good. However cushions for inside folding chairs would have been an added bonus. There is the matter of one person having to sleep next to the wall and thus climb over the other person to get out of bed that presents an additional problem. But as I say it was only two nights. A full size shower was appreciated as well as a very well-equipped kitchen. I suppose the real question is ‘What is the difference between a shepherds hut and a caravan?’ The answer has to be ‘Marketing’ They are on trend at the moment so maybe worth a try if, like us, you want to satisfy your curiosity.

Lovely Shepherd's Hut, in a beautiful location, quiet with stunning views. Very much enjoyed our couple of days walking in the local area, spotting wildlife and eating at the local pub, The Shepherd and Crook, which we would thoroughly recommend, great food and friendly staff. Thank you! Gill and Pete Gallon

Lovely weekend stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed our two night stay in the Lookerer hut last weekend. The hut was equipped with everything you could need and it was immaculate! The location was great, with the beach just a short drive away. It was also lovely having friendly sheep neighbours! We would definitely visit again :)

Absolutely fabulous
Such a fantastic break, the Shepherds Hut is perfect, very comfortable and so much attention to detail, it is the perfect place to unwind and relax. Kristina was a fabulous host and I was privileged to be able to feed the baby lambs - such an incredible experience. We will definitely be booking again.
