Shepherd's hut
Liked: The site was so peaceful, perfect place to relax but not too far from Aberystwyth and New Quay. The site was clean and well kept. We loved the little honesty shop. The hut itself was perfect, cozy. It felt like every little thing had been thought of.

Shepherd's hut
Liked: Just wow! Everything was fantastic and so well thought out, most luxurious glamping I’ve seen. We loved every minute. Stayed in one of the dog friendly huts and the Dog now has a new favourite place. All enclosed so the Pup could run free and two very large secure fields for a good run around. Small site but the owners were lovely and even though you are close to a major town, we always felt like we were in the middle of no where with a lot of animals, it was brill!!!
Disliked: Nothing

Shepherd's hut
Liked: Incredible stay - the huts are luxurious and dog friendly, which is usually an impossible find!!! They really have thought of everything, from treats and bowls for the dog through to fresh milk and towel dressing-gowns for us, we cannot fault the facilities at all. They also left a birthday cake for my partner and a banner, which was such a lovely thoughtful extra! I would highly recommend staying at Silver Fern, it really is luxury glamping at its finest. Thankyou so much for such a relaxing and enjoyable stay!

Shepherd's hut
Liked: What a lovely place with exceptional attention to detail and really welcoming hosts! As someone who has camped and glamped for a number of years, I'm really bad at leaving reviews, but Silver Fern was just brilliant! The little touches, like the mulled wine and doggy treats, were a lovely welcome. It is just a brilliant little luxury glamping hut that is really cosy and quite beautifully done! Despite the weather, we did get an outdoor bubble bath, which was fantastic touch! We would definitely stay again! Thank you!

Shepherd's hut (no pets)
Liked: We had a great stay at Silver fern glamping, we wished we had booked for longer! Everything about the site is incredible, the attention to detail is perfect and you can really tell the owners have taken the time to think of everything. The site is beautiful, fantastic views, peaceful, surrounded by animals and lots of places to walk. The accommodation was perfect! modern and spotless, all the equipment you need and more! Teabags, milk, coffee, sugar, hot chocolate, marshmallows, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, salt, pepper, cooking oil, firewood, tv with Netflix ect, bbq and fire pit all provided. We loved the outside bath and the bed was sooo comfy! If you do forget anything there is a honesty shop on-site that has a great variety of produce, the owners are also very helpful and only a text away if you need assistance. Would highly recommend this destination to anyone, thank you so much for a lovely break Silver Fern!x

Liked: Very well maintained site, the facilities in and out of the Shepard hut, the on site honesty shop was full with all the best foods, drinks and general items. Everything was well thought out, even with the wheel barrows to help with transporting your luggage to the hut.
Disliked: Couldn't find anything to dislike.

Liked: A very enjoyable stay in an extremely well equipped and high quality shepherd hut accommodation. Wonderful view of the surrounding countryside. We loved watching the red kites flying over the fields outside our hut. Friendly owners made us feel welcome. We would highly recommend Silver Fern Glamping to others looking to take a peaceful break in this attractive coastal region in Wales. Many thanks.

Liked: If I could give this site 20/10 I would! Everything is absolutely perfect. From the wonderful Coronation welcome cakes and bunting that were laid out, to the stunning (and incredibly tasty) breakfast hamper, to the tasteful interior design, the little touches, the huge outside roll top bath with Silver Fern’s own toiletries and super soft towels. The hosts are super friendly and welcoming, whilst allowing you to have privacy and peace and quiet.. They’ve really thought of EVERYTHING! I cannot big this site up enough. We will most definitely be back. It’s a little slice of paradise.
Disliked: Nothing, everything was perfect.
