Had a really lovely stay at Christine’s. Breakfast was provided and the place was exactly as it seems in the pictures. The location and instructions provided were very accurate and clear.

We had an amazing stay at Elm Retreat over NYE, plenty of amenities provided and the fold down bed was very comfortable. Christine was very contactable and provided very clear directions to the lodge. We will most definitely be returning in the warmer months to make use of the great outdoor space provided!

Lovely place! Very relaxing.

A cute little place. Ideal for a quiet secluded visit especially when it’s good weather. The welcome pack was indeed very welcome. We enjoyed partaking of that. The owner was most helpful returning things left behind

Outstanding location and accommodation, every detail taken care of and all the information required for a hassle free break

Absolutely amazing stay. We did Monday -Wednesday and we couldn’t fault it! Really good price for what it is. Everything we needed was in the lodge and the hosts were more than happy to help with any questions or queries, communication was fab! 10000% recommend!!!

Had a lovely stay at Elm Retreat! Such a dreamy place and great location as well. The hut was really well equipped, the bed so comfortable, and we loved the special touch of the welcome hamper. Would love to stay there again.

A wonderful stay at Elm Retreat! A beautiful shepherd’s hut in a remote location. The welcome package made all the difference too. Thank you! I have no doubt we’ll be back again.

We loved staying in this luxiurious shepherd’s hut, which was kitted out with everything we needed and had such a comfortable bed. We loved the total privacy of Elm Retreat, set back from the road with only pheasants as our immediate neighbours. We had a couple of days of sunshine during our stay so seized the opportunity to use the Weber barbeque and firepit down by the river. Although it rained towards the end of our stay we didn’t mind hunkering down with our books in this cosy shepherd’s hut.

We stayed in the Elm Retreat Sheppards hut for a weeks break in October and it was the perfect cozy get away!

The host had layed out a welcome breakfast hamper of all local produce and a thankyou card on the breakfast table which was super cute. There was a binder full of all the information you needed from how to get the folding bed down to using the gas cooker to local walks and information for places to eat, see and explore!

The area the hut is in is very secluded, peaceful and quiet tucked away across a field into the woods next to a river. The host provides a little pull along carrier to help you transport your belongings to the hut.

Inside the hut is everything you would need. All the utensils to cook, cleaning products, towels and bedding, hand wash, shampoo and conditioner (no shower wash), even milk butter and eggs in the fridge. There is a bbq outside as well as a fire pit and the host has wood, coal and fire lighters for you too. I dont think there was anything we needed, the hosts have really thought of everything.

We found the hut on air bnb and the process of payment , directions , access and communication were all smooth and easy. Christine (the host) has thought of everything. I would recommend to a friend. We had a great time. Thanks Christine
