Enjoyed every minute of our stay
Anonymous Shepherd's hut (four person, hot tub, private bathroom amenities)
Liked Tidy, clean, lovely location, quiet and respectful guests. No one was bothering anyone. Communal showers and toilets are clean, big, freshly redecorated. Bed linen tidy. The local shop is just the best. You can get anything there and it has some kind of magic to it
Disliked Communal entertainment area needs refreshing and furniture replacement due to tear and wear. However everything kept tidy, so really nothing major.
