The Shepherd's Loft

Liked Only 8 pitches so nice and quiet. Owners mum greeted everyone that came in, very welcoming.

Disliked Only one shower/toilet block but sufficient for the 8 pitches, no queues.

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review! We’re so pleased you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere—having just 8 pitches really does help keep things nice and quiet. It’s great to hear you received a warm welcome on arrival; we’ll be sure to pass that on 😊

We’re glad the facilities worked well for you during your stay, and it’s wonderful to hear how much your son enjoyed meeting the animals—especially the donkeys! They do have a way of winning people over, no matter their age 🤣

We’d love to welcome you back again for another relaxing visit soon!

Liked Good quiet sight, and small site so not over crowded,

Disliked In a busy time the toilet facilities will be a problem, as the only toilet is in with the shower

From the manager: Thank you for your review. We’re really pleased you enjoyed the quiet, small nature of the site—it’s something many of our guests value.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the facilities. As a small site, we do have limited amenities, and we understand that having the toilet and shower combined may be less convenient during busier times. We’ll certainly keep this in mind as we look at ways to improve the experience for our guests.

Thanks again for your stay, and we hope to welcome you back in the future!

Liked The site is a wonderful, secluded getaway that offers a truly quiet and intimate atmosphere away from the crowds. One of the standout features was the local farm animals, including the donkeys and chickens, which wandered right up to the site and provided great entertainment for our daughter. It is a charming, peaceful spot for anyone looking for a small, out-of-the-way retreat in the heart of the countryside.

Disliked The entrance would benefit from much clearer signage, as it is easy to miss and results in some difficult maneuvering in the narrow surrounding lanes. Additionally, the infrastructure feels quite limited with only a single toilet and shower unit available for guests. The washing-up facilities could also be improved by the addition of warm water, as the current setup is a bit too basic for a fully comfortable stay.

We’re delighted you enjoyed the peaceful, secluded atmosphere of the site—it’s exactly what we aim to offer for those looking to escape the crowds. It’s lovely to hear your daughter enjoyed the donkeys and chickens too; they certainly like to make themselves part of the experience!

We really appreciate your constructive feedback as well. We understand the entrance can be easy to miss, and we’re already looking at ways to improve the signage to make arrivals smoother. Regarding the facilities, we aim to keep things simple in keeping with the small, off-grid feel of the site, but we do take your comments on board—especially around the washing-up area—and will consider how we can improve comfort while maintaining that charm.

Thanks again for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back in the future.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. We’re really glad you enjoyed the pitches and the convenience of electric and water hookups.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the facilities and location. As a small, rural site, we aim to offer a peaceful and more secluded experience, though we understand this may feel a little isolated for some. We also recognise that having a single shower and toilet may not suit everyone, and we’ll keep your comments in mind as we continue to improve.

Thanks again for your stay!

Liked Quiet
Flat pitch with reasonable space
Friendly greeting
Donkeys were nice

Disliked Only 1 shower and toilet for the whole site and both together so if shower occupied, meant waiting for bathroom, not ideal with young children
Shower was small and not very warm
No hot water available in the washing up area
