    It was hard to find development opportunities but 2 things I found was lack of evening sun in the garden but I understand that it’s no fault of the property 😂 and if the hot tub had jets it would be a great addition however I’m digging deep to find something I didn’t like.

    The location was perfect to get away from everyday life. Beautiful views and quiet peaceful setting. With a great pizza oven and hot tub to soak your muscles after walking. Was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The owners have done a great job at making it feel home from home with all the little additions of cute touches throughout. Excellent stay, highly recommended and we will definitely be going back.

    The cabin was so welcoming, with a sweet personalised sign and so many thoughtful and luxurious touches like the mini shampoo laid out on the plush towels, and the robes. We loved the wood fired pizza oven and it was great to have a generous amount of firewood already included. The location is so peaceful, we loved sitting out listening to the birds and it felt very private.

    We don't there was anything

    We were wowed from the get go.- well done Elephant View Shepherds Hut. We hadn't realised until seeing their website that this is an award winning gem so we are.very lucky to have had the opportunity to stay here. We without a shadow of a doubt think this is worth every award. Our stay was for 2 nights (we wish it was for longer) for our base camp hiking trip up Mt.Snowdon. It was glamping with every little detail thought about and it made it feel extra homely and cosy...guest basket, fresh milk, all the essentials for a stay. The instructions were detailed and super helpful although we are gutted our day trekking was so long.we didn't even use the hot tub or pizza fire. it was super clean (as a business owner of a cleaning company myself.and cleaning my own Airbnb's - I should know). And how could we forget to mention the absolutely stunning views of the sky at night, down to the friendly neighbors (sheep) greeting you in the mornings and the gorgeous kitted-out outdoor space. Absolutely dreamy stay - thank you X Nat.& Tom,.soon to be regular visitors .

    Nothing - we loved it!

    Everything was perfect! The location is easy to reach, the hut is just too cute and nothing is missing, meaning you can arrive and really enjoy the time there without thinking about anything else.

    There is nothing to fault about the property we loved it

    Attention to detail was very thoughtful, location and views were stunning, very private and secluded, well equipped with everything we needed. Pizza oven was fun to experiment with, we cooked breakfast, burgers and steaks over our stay. Bed was super comfy.

    The hut was perfect and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend break. The robes and the welcome pack were a lovely thought and the hot tub was brilliant. The additional outdoor area with Pizza oven, lights and seating were ideal for sitting outside and enjoying the views. Would 100% recommend.
