Skirrid View Shepherd Hut Reviews

Alex
Really enjoyed our stay, comfy bed, super clean, friendly hosts. Thanks a lot for the warm welcome!
Oliver
Really enjoyed it, definitely worth a visit.
Clara
We had a lovely stay and a warm welcome from Mike! The pictures really don't do this place justice, especially the lovely terrace above the hot tub which is perfect for stargazing. With great facilities and plenty of walks nearby, it made for a really relaxing stay.
James
This is an excellent place to stay! You get total seclusion while knowing your hosts are there whenever you need assistance. They were so inviting and friendly. Everything, from the quality of workmanship in the buildings and facilities to the cleanliness, is absolutely first-rate. I defy anyone not to feel relaxed in the sec surroundings with fantastic views all around. We highly recommend this accommodation to anyone.
Emily
What a fantastic discovery! It's even better than the pictures online. The hot tub is actually undercover, giving us way more privacy than we expected. We had such a lovely, relaxing break, exactly what we needed. The owners are so kind! We'll definitely be back!
Emma
We really enjoyed our couple of days in the hut. The hot tub was just amazing! The owners treated us so well with a lovely pot of tea on arrival. We will definitely be going back again!
Michael
This is a really beautiful place! The owners are so amazing, super nice and really helpful. Everything was clean and cozyand we felt truly welcome. We would definitely reccomend taking a walk up Skirrid View. It's a bit of a tough trek but the views are absolutely worth it.
