The Four Sevens shepherd's hut
Liked: The owner Maggie was lovely, nothing was too much. The site is beautiful and a real escape from normality. My little girl loved the horses and rides in the buggy.

The Four Sevens shepherd's hut
Liked: We all had a fabulous time staying at Capledrae Farm, the accommodation was spotless with everything we needed, including the spacious barbecue hut. Maggie and her sister Roberta could not have made us more welcome, so much so that my children and I were very sad to leave. The view is beautiful from the huts, even in grey weather. There was a large grassed area at the side that we used for kicking a ball around and a horse and pony in the field in front of us. We took the train from Lochgelly into Edinburgh which took about 50 minutes and visited St. Andrews by car. Capledrae Farm is a wonderful place to rest and relax. We definitely hope to return, we loved it! 💕

From the manager: We were also sad to see you leave. Both the children were great at helping poo pick the field, brush out the stable, and look after the horses. The dog also had a wonderful time having someone to throw his toys for him. Both huts were left immaculate, and the huge plus was the covers were taken off the duvets and pillowcases. Haste ye back
Loved everything about it!

The Four Sevens shepherd's hut
Liked: The shepherds hut was immaculate,the host(maggie) went above & beyond to make sure we all enjoyed our break,you can tell she enjoys meeting new people & making sure they enjoy themselves while staying there. The surroundings are so peaceful, a great break had by all.
Disliked: We can't fault anything about our break. The only dislike is that we didn't book for longer. We will definitely be back.

From the manager: Lovely family and a pleasure to host. I was also lucky to be presented with a drawing of the sun and a rainbow, very special. Both huts left immaculate and I did not even have to clean the BBQ. Thank you

The Four Sevens shepherd's hut
