Just returned from a wonderful 3 night stay at this gorgeous sheperds hut , from start to finish eve
Just returned from a wonderful 3 night stay at this gorgeous sheperds hut , from start to finish everything was perfect , Sue and Alan are amazing hosts , very quick to answer any enquires, The finish on this hut is spectacular, the lovely treats left were such a pleasant touch , the wine and chocolates were just the cherry on the cake, the hot tub well … amazing a lovely way to relax after a day’s sightseeing , the hut itself is max 5 min drive to a quaint little town where there’s a Sainsbury’s and Aldi so no need to cart too much food / drink there . We spent a day in York approx 30 min drive and a second day at a beach at Hornsbea 45 min drive . Overall perfect we loved every minute of it Pros … everything Cons .. none other than we only had 3 nights would love to return thank you 😊
This gorgeous hut was amazing to stay in, so relaxing, clean, cosy and a perfect little get away. The hot tub was brilliant, great temperature and clean, they heating inside the hut was great and the shower was a great size, would definitely stay again here

We had a lovely 3 night stay in the Bluebell shepherds hut.
We had a lovely 3 night stay in the Bluebell shepherds hut. The accommodation was well equipped, and beautifully decorated. We couldn't have asked for a comfier bed! The hot was an added treat and just as lovely in the drizzle!Only thing that could be improved is better Wi-Fi connection, it is there, just intermittent. Sue was a delight to be welcomed by and had we needed anything, I have no doubt we would have received it quickly.

We had a fabulous two-night stay at Blue Bell.
We had a fabulous two-night stay at Blue Bell. Sue gave us a very warm welcome and showed us around when we arrived. The kitchen was well-equipped and the bed very comfortable. It was great to have the hot tub just outside - nice and secluded with some fairy lights to guide the way. A lovely peaceful retreat - we've already booked in a return visit in the summer.
