Hawthorn Retreat

Somehow even better than the pictures! We have stayed in a lot of shepherds hut and I think this is the best one… amazing location in a very private area where you feel in the middle of the woods!
Very clean.
The shepherds hut has 3 different outside areas – outside the hut table and chairs, a fire pit area and a separate area close to a stream you can hear and relax.
Fantastic for anytime of year.
The hut had everything you need, I would definitely return if in the area again.

Absolutely amazing, only wished we had booked longer. Will 100% be coming back – really peaceful and quiet but only a short drive from any villages/shops etc. Came with all the amenities you could need, was really happy thank you!

We absolutely loved staying here for the four nights we booked and wished we’d stayed longer. The place was spick and span. Absolutely stunning surrounding scenery, with every detail thought of to accommadate us during our holiday. We will definitely be back.

A hundred percent worth every penny!!!

We had a wonderful and peaceful 4 night escape here. We were treated with some homemade plum jam, bread, muesli and other lovely supplies that meant breakfast was sorted for our entire stay. Eve try thing in the hut was so thought-out and there was plenty of space for the two of us. Outdoor area was amazing and offered 3 more spaces to unwind listening yo the sound of the river. We can’t wait to visit again!

This place was absolutely wonderful. The hut was cosy and nothing short of what it was described as, with a peaceful surrounding next to a lovely river. The outdoor space was perfect. Upon arrival we had a tiny issue with the door to the hut, but Christine was so helpful and sent someone out in 5 minutes, who fixed the problem straight away. Such a lovely time and friendly host, would 100% recommend and revisit in the future.
