1 bedroom shepherd's hut
Liked: The location, the views, the accommodation. It was all fantastic and we had a great weekend! The shepherds hut was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. We had a BBQ on Friday night which was easy with the coals and fire pit type BBQ. We jumped on the train to Clitheroe early on the Saturday and had a walk around the town and market etc. which was great, before heading to the castle where there is a great park for the kids. On the Saturday evening we gathered around the communal fire pit and had a great time with some of the other ‘campers’ for a time that we won’t be forgetting quickly. Thoroughly recommend.
Disliked: I would have liked 1 nights supply of wood/BBQ coal to be included in the price, but everything was at an additional expense. Next time I would likely bring my own.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a positive and informative review. We will be happy to gift you some wood and coal on your next visit as a thank you for returning :0) Emma & Peter
