Shepherd's hut
Liked: Everything. Have booked again for next month. Stayed in the shepherd's hut and it had everything we needed for our stay, the shower was lovely with plenty of hot water, the bed was so comfortable, the outside patio area was lovely to sit out expecially as it was nice weather. Brampton village a few miles away had places to eat and shop. Ruth and her family made us feel welcome on our stay. My new favourite place for glamping
Disliked: Nothing

Camping pod
Liked: Location excellent to explore areas nearby, really beautiful and tranquil setting. Camping pod right for four and dog but came with all sorts of extras to make the stay more than comfortable. We rarely visit places twice but this is on the list to do so. Ruth and family really lovely people and made us feel more than welcome even though me tipped up three hours late on the Friday due to late work finish. Great value for money and absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a few nights away. Like I said there were four of us plus small dog and children now 15 and 11 but we all had a great time and hope to return! 😊
Disliked: The only slight thing if being really really picky was the mattresses but this is being picky as myself and my wife have back issues. For lost this won’t be a problem though.

From the manager: Darren, thank you for such an in depth, complementary and informative review! Always a sign you've done something right when guests want to return! Thank you also for the fab photos! Ruth

Shepherd's hut
Liked: Tranquility, seclusion and space - the Shepherd's Hut was like our own little Apollo 11. The Hut was cosy but not in any derogatory way. It was a lovely experience and the owner (+ team) were tremendous. ...And we got really lucky with the weather...breakfast outside and evenings chilled on the terrace
Disliked: Leaving after only three nights. Funny how quickly you can get attached to somewhere.

Shepherd's hut
Liked: Such a beautiful Shepherd's Hut in lovely surrounds. Everything was made up and ready for us, the hut has everything for a very relaxing stay. The location is great, on the first day, we went over the top of the Pennines to Barnard Castle, the scenery is stunning and on the second day we turned the other way and visited the lakes. The pub in Castle Carrock (Duke of Cumberland) is two minutes away and was a great find, very welcoming and the food was lovely. Highly recommend Ruth's place, one of the best places I've booked on Pitch Up!

From the manager: Moyra, thank you for such a glowing and in depth review, comments like yours make it all worth while! You were a pleasure to host and I really appreciate how clean and tidy you left the shepherds hut!
