Park Farm

Me gustó: The location, scenery, friendliness of host, views, ease to find, dog friendly, basic necessities included, log burner was super warm in the windy evenings, shower and loo attached. Sun from dawn to dusk so perfect placement, lots to do and see within an hours drive.

No me gustó: Quite small and has a lean so feels like you're going to roll out of bed, maybe sunk into the ground a little over time. The bed is also no more than 5 ft 5/6 so if you're tall you'll struggle to lay properly.

Me gustó: Lovely original shepherds hut, cosy, comfortable bed. Idyllic setting, with great vista, owls, night jar, etc. Everything provided for a wonderful, peaceful, back-to-nature break. Friendly, helpful hosts who couldn't do enough to make this a perfect holiday retreat.

No me gustó: Having to go home!

Me gustó: Beautiful view, peaceful setting, everything you need provided. Affordable price compared to other shepherd's huts, so those wanting 5 star luxury glamping might be disappointed but certainly a more comfortable, private treat than our usual tent experience! Warm welcome from owner who was very helpful.

Me gustó: The shepherds hut is idyllic; in the middle of nowhere with fantastic views down on fields with grazing sheep and horses. You can walk straight from the hut right down into acres of forest. We very much enjoyed the barbecue on the deck and the kitchen was well equipped with tools. We also slept very well, found the mattress very comfortable and as it is so quiet we slept very soundly indeed. The shower had good pressure and was lovely and hot. The eco toilet was certainly an experience but was part of the adventure.

No me gustó: Unfortunately there was construction work taking place on the farm during the majority of our stay and we were not advised at time of booking or check-in. It appeared that a new dwelling was being constructed and the road leading up to the main road was dug up in order from early in the morning to access pipes. This road was only wide enough for a single vehicle to pass. Therefore, when we attempted to leave the farm on at least two of the days, we had to politely ask the builders whether we could be let out. The builder who was operating the digger was quite rude and only begrudgingly moved it, saying that we should have parked our vehicle past the road works. Unfortunately, given that we had no knowledge that the building work was taking place and the shepherds hut is so far down the track that we didn’t have visibility of the road, we wouldn’t have known to do this. This spoilt what would have been an absolutely lovely stay. It made us feel quite awkward coming and going and meant that we spent more time away from the lovely shepherds hut so that we didn’t have to deal with the builders. On our last day we even made the decision to leave at 7:30 so that we would be able to get out before any builders had arrived. A friendly text from the host advising us of building works or suggesting we move our vehicle when he/his family did, would have been much appreciated.
