Betty shepherd's hut
Liked: This is our 3rd year running staying at Foxwold and it was fantastic as usual. We love getting 'off grid' to relax, unwind and reset. Foxwold is set in a beautiful part of the country and it is always peaceful and tranquil. Kat and Andy are fantastic hosts, they keep the site in great condition, the huts are alway clean and comfortable and nothing is too much for them. We will certainly be back next year and for many more years to come.

Ruby shepherd's hut
Liked: Peaceful location, great hosts who were friendly, helpful with advice on where to go in local area, loved the outdoor shower and compost loos. Everything needed for a break away from it all. Great skies for star gazing around the campfire.
Disliked: A little muddy in places due to the heavy rainfall, so glad I took my wellies!

Liked: It's a wonderful place to relax. Marshmallows were prepared in the hut and I was able to roast them on the wood stove and enjoy them. I would have liked to stay a few more days if possible. I also recommend enjoying it with your dog. Outdoor shower time is also fan. It was a little difficult on a rainy day, but interesting!
