Shepherd's hut
Liked: It was an amazing experience in the middle of the forest. Private, pretty and well organized hut with all that you need, including hammocks if you want to chill or plenty beautiful and full of blackberries walks around. Maddie the dog's owner it's also a huge cute, well behaved and funny company. A perfect city break to enjoy our first wedding anniversary ❤️

Shepherd's hut
Liked: We absolutely loved staying at Bluebell! I'll be honest, I was unsure at first as my husband had booked it so we could recharge our batteries and escape for a few days !! It was brilliant, we loved Bluebell and all the extra touches and goodies when we got there. The bed was super comfortable and so cozy ! The shower area was amazing, we loved showering outside and the addes bonus of bathrobes supplied. Even the compost loo was brilliant! Maddy the spaniel was a huge hit with us and we loved her visits throughout the day and evening, she especially liked the fire we lit in the evenings!! All the extra touches that Jane had thought of were amazing. We will definitely be returning for a 2nd visit.

Shepherd's hut
Liked: I was looking for accommodation for two nights so i could attend the Goodwood festival of speed event which is only 25 Mins drive from the Blue bell Shepherds hut.
Lovely location with everything you need.
The Shepherds hut is very nicely done with great attention to detail.
The Shower/toilet was also nicely done.
A great place to stay overall thanks Jane and Maddy the Cocker spaniel what a lovely dog 🐕.

Shepherd's hut
Liked: This was the most RELAXING weekend we have ever had. No one around apart from the beautiful dog Maddy. Everything that you needed , no frills needed. We sat and relaxed and chatted. We enjoyed the space and nature.
The hut was everything you could want. Again no need for anything extra. The bed was comfy. It was clean and inviting. It packed so much in but still had enough room.
The fire pit area was decked out. Tables and chair blending into nature. The pit was perfect to cook on , that was my husbands favourite part. You can sit and chat and watch the birds and stars with no interruptions.
The shower and loo were a short walk away. Hot water and a lovely space to wake up in. The loo was perfect and it all just blended in.
Jane and her family were welcoming and they would have done anything to make sure our stay was perfect. Little card and treats were a lovely touch. Maddy the spaniel is the secret weapon I think. With little visits that make you smile.
We will be back. It was a space to stop and be in. No wifi (but some signal) , no people and just beautiful surroundings was perfection

From the manager: Thank you for this wonderful review, Sarah. We are delighted you enjoyed your relaxing weekend immersed in nature. It was a pleasure to host you and we look forward to seeing you again soon. With kind regards Jane

Shepherd's hut
Liked: From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome by the host, we were left some treats in the hut which was a nice touch. Such a beautiful shepards hut perfectly decorated, every little detail had been thought of. Bluebell shepards hut was very comfortable and cosy, we enjoyed the evenings sitting next to the firepit listening to the owls and taking in the surroundings. The outside shower was amazing and a lovely experience, the area was very private, clean, and well equipped for cooking and relaxation. Plenty of nice walks nearby, we also met some beautiful horses, Maddy the dog was an added bonus, she popped over to see us throughout the day which we loved. I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone who loves nature, relaxation, and natural beauty, we hope to be back very soon.

From the manager: We are so glad you felt so welcome and enjoyed the treats and the owls! And of course, the outdoor shower and the spaniel. You are always welcome, With kind regards Jane
