    Nothing at all.

    It was like riding a green lane to get there, the place was beautiful and remote, amazing facilities and zero phone service. Perfect. Warm comfy bed and beautiful yurt.

    The only thing that was a little bit off putting was the place was tidy but could have been cleaner (in the least rude sounding way possible) it was a bit dusty, had stuff in the bin from previous people, and a sucked sweet in a wrapper etc.. We aren't fussy and just cleaned around as we would at home. But it could have been a little cleaner in all honesty. It's busy and I'm sure it's hard to keep every cottage perfect all the time. Also the hoover wasn't great which made it hard to clean ready for leaving, and we would have liked a mop as well as a hoover as it's dog friendly and we took our furry babies along.. But this is just an honest review. No hate, we loved it here!!

    We loved everything about it. So much so we booked an extra night and still didn't want to go home. Its perfect. We will definitely be back again, in the same cottage as it was truly beautiful.

    Absolutely beautiful! Lovely, remote location. Perfect place to take our dog, he’s very nervous so a more private location was great, we barely saw anyone but those we did were really friendly. Easy to locate, self check-in was really straight forward and more than we could have asked for after a horrid drive!

    The bed is made by taking the table down and using as a platform which you then put the provided mattress topper onto. This is fine and reasonably comfortable but if you struggle with back issues you may find it difficult although I can't see how they could do it any other way so not a complaint, rather a watchout for anyone with back problems.

    What an incredible place!!!! Miles from noise and pollution and situated in a beautiful valley, the shepherd's hut we stayed in was nestled in the tree canopy. We had a huge enclosed deck to sit on and our dog loved the space it provided. We were also a good distance away from the next huts. John and Fiona were brilliant too, very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The hut itself was beautiful inside with a little kitchen and separate bathroom with a full power shower which was a welcome surprise given the location of the hut. Be advised though that there is no TV or Internet access except for in the community area and Internet cafe, which was perfect for us as it meant we had no distractions of modern life. The walks and scenery on your doorstep are spectacular and a must while your here. Make sure you bring some essentials with you though as there is only a small honesty shop on site and the nearest town is about 10 miles away back down the rather bumpy track.( If you drive a low car you'll struggle on it as its heavily rutted but it is a working farm after all) but wow its worth it once you get there! I looked at dozens of shepherd's huts to stay in for a few days and I can honestly say that I don't think there's better out there that offer what this place offers. Will 100% be back again soon so thankyou guys, we had a truly fantastic time and we honestly can't find fault with any of our stay.

    late check in time and no warning that we arrived early but couldn’t check in. No pub in walking distance, it’s a 15-20 minute drive away. But still had the best time and loved being so remote in such a wonderful farm house.

    beautiful peaceful location and surrounded by nature. we booked the Farmhouse as a surprise trip for our friends 50th birthday. we are a group of 4 adults with 4 very small dogs. we did ask to check in early so could arrange some balloons and surprise our friend but sadly we arrived at the earlier time but the Farmhouse wasn’t ready. As the owner had decided to stay there and didn’t check out until the last minute, which apparently does happen quite often, so bare this in mind if you wanted to ask to check in there before 4pm. The staff did get it cleaned super quickly though, which we really appreciated. kitchen is traditional with everything you could need, lounge is very cosy and perfect for a night around the fire. we enjoyed the outside terrace area and seating on a freak sunny day. The beds are so incredibly comfortable we all slept like logs. Such a great place to stay we would love to return. Also, to note, I left a few bits behind accidentally and the amazing team got them back to me in the post, going above and beyond.

    Not a negative, but just pointing it out... It's a very remote location a few miles away from anything else, I like to get away from everything, and fine for me. I image some might not realise how remote it is though.

    Absolutely fantastic location, the accommodation has character, is well proportioned and furnished, including cooking utensils, some condiments and plenty of torches. It's great to see the stars without light pollution too. Details are well considered everywhere, well constructed paths and steps, well lit, instructions and notes left for you to be self sufficient in communal areas. Free to roam around the farmland and forest. Very relaxing and great to get away from things!
