Liked: Towels and bedding are provided. The hottub on a cool night looking up at the star's and the moon is lovely. There was a well equipped kitchen with cooker, kettle and toaster. The covered social /eating area was a relief when it rained, with the addition of a DAB radio. The wood for the fire was free and plentiful. The welcome breakfast pack was delicious. Great recycling facilities.
Disliked: There was no bin for non-recyclables. A mop would have been useful to clean the floors with when they got wet and muddy. There were no toilet brushes.

Liked: Outside dining room with woodburner was excellent. Lovely and quiet. Great hot tub. Breakfast a thoughtful touch.
Disliked: Left an expensive headlight torch behing and tried to contact them via text and email but to no avail. Bit of a shame. Was happy to pay postage.

Shepherd's hut (four person)
Liked: We had an absolutely wonderful weekend break here, Charlotte had been in contact with us a day or so before our arrival to check what time we were due to arrive which meant that we arrived to the fire already going AND a nice warm hot tub! The kitchen area is small but had everything we needed from pots, pans, cutlery, mugs and even the odd wine glass. The breakfast pack was a lovely addition and also meant we didn't have to dash to the shops after a long drive down. The showers and toilets were spotless too. The only suggestion we had was that some solar/fairy lights around the hot tub area would be a lovely addition. Location wise it's a great base for exploring the surrounding areas, we visited Wells, Cheddar and Bath which are all within 40/50 minute drive. The site itself is very quiet (i'd recommend having a little look at google street view before you head off as it's very much a "blink and you'll miss it" turning off the main road. Thanks for a great stay, we will definitely be back!

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely feedback, unfortunately because its an Area of outstanding natural beauty we can add any additional lighting only what we have planning for, but I do like the idea of some fairy lights! Hope to see you again

Liked: Communal dining area with wood stove, wood fired hot tub and seating. Great hot showers, clean loos . Set in a lovely field full of nature and 3 lovely shepherd's huts. Small enough to retreat from the world yet mix with the other families/couples .

Liked: Everything! Such a lovely place to stay. Very peaceful and beautiful scenery. Loved the hot tub and communal firepit too as it provided a chance to get to know fellow campers.
