The Romney -  a Shepherds Hut by Bloom Stays that sleeps 4 guests  in 1 bedroom

The Romney - a Shepherds Hut by Bloom Stays that sleeps 4 guests in 1 bedroom

10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely magical! We were blessed with the most amazing skies during our stay and had the most wonderful time. The Romney was a dream. A cosy and beautiful shepherds hut with everything included to make our visit one to remember. The beds were comfy and included gorgeous wool throw blankets, cushions and hot water bottle. There were fairy lights and the little kitchen had everything we needed to prepare a delicious cooked breakfast and bbq feast. The cookies, marshmallows, tea, coffee and milk were a lovely touch. The real magic was being sat outside around the fire pit cooking our dinner and watching the sunset. Equally, the outdoor bath was a real luxury combined with the sumptuous toiletries and bath robes. We came with our sons who are 7 and 2 and they both had the time of their lives. I loved that we had the field all to ourselves apart from the odd visiting chicken. The location is ideal for exploring the local area; we had a fantastic time wandering the cobbled streets of Rye and then collecting pebbles at Dungeness. Highly recommend and fully intend to return again in the future."

The Lookerer by Bloom Stays - a rural shepherds hut with amazing views!

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful location very peaceful, slept soundly very relaxing place to stay. On the website it states we would be getting a welcoming bottle of wine from local company, we got a bottle of Apple juice instead, we were looking forward to sitting outside with a glass of wine the Apple juice though very nice not quite the same. All other items listed as little extras were there yummy marsh mellows and delicious granola, tea and coffee. We paid for a breakfast the bacon, sausage and eggs were very good quality good value for money. The only other comments are the shower mat needs replacing as grubby, the large rainfall shower head needs a good descale as water going in all different directions, we had one towelling bath robe the other one was a worn fleece robe that had seen better days. There were some lovely fairy lights above the inside window sadly they didn’t work, the outside fence was weathered and needs propping up did add to the charm of the place. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend as very good value. The check in information though online was all very welcoming and efficient."

Romney Marsh Huts by Bloom Stays - beautiful shepherds hut that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent
"The sunsets directly in front of the cabins were stunning, with the landscape constantly changing throughout the evening. There was a wonderful sense of calm as the world slowly darkened and it was time to settle in for the night. The children loved being outdoors, relaxing, exploring nature and playing freely. Feeding the lambs was an added treat and a lovely seasonal experience. The location is perfect for enjoying the countryside, with beautiful walks on the doorstep, BBQs over open wood fires, and the beach less than ten minutes away for scenic coastal strolls. The huts petit yet perfectly formed, with thoughtful touches and attention to detail that made the stay feel comfortable and unique. We left feeling refreshed and would happily return."
