    A bit too dark in the yard & outside the Shepherd’s Hut at night - would suggest a permanent bollard light in the parking area, and festoon lights around the banister around the Shepherd’s Hut’s seating area. Just so you can see where you’re walking.

    Very clean - very comfortable - fully equipped - peaceful - safe - amazing views. Equestrian Centre on site so horse rides/pony trekking available. Horses beautiful & very well taken care of, managed by the lovely daughter, Isabelle. Fascinating collections of vintage metal signs throughout.

    On arrival we didn't really know very well where to go, and the staff of the equestrian centre didn't really know either. In the end, we figured we should go up to the main house and try and find someone. Not a big issue, but we didn't receive an email where to go for check-in. And a heads-up for people staying here: we couldn't find any plates or cutlery in the communal kitchen or our hut, so not sure where to get them from. Best bring them along 😊

    Wonderful little hut with amazing view. We had a very relaxing time. Also close to a number of wonderful walks right out the door, and close to the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley. Chepstow is recommended. We also loved the dogs, chicken and horses around the farm. Great value for money. We arrived very early after doing a run and were allowed to shower before check-in, which was very much appreciated.

    Superb location, surrounded by the pure nature, horses, birds. Unique accommodation far away from civilization, where you can sleep in the Shepherd's hut with an open wide door looking at horses roaming on the field with sun set in the background.

    Incredible location, so peaceful and relaxing watching the swallows flying around with an open fire outside. Short walk to May Hill where you can see views of our beloved Welsh mountains. Hosts were very friendly & accommodating, particularly their little dog Margot who ‘helped’ me cook porridge in the mornings! Beautiful part of the world, would highly recommend the Shepherd’s Hut to anyone.

    Cooking facilities were a little limited, although when the weather is decent there are a number of barbecues dotted around which could be used.

    The cabin was on a working farm, an equestrian centre to be specific, and being people that like to be amongst animals this was perfect. The views were spectacular. The cabin, where you sleep, is about 10m from the communal facilities, which were quirky and fun. The "glamping" shower (hot, decent pressure) and toilet were luxurious.

    Nothing! it was exactly as we'd hoped and expected. a perfect little getaway.

    such a lovely set-up in a beautiful location. we loved the cosiness of the hut, and the, rustic, highly convivial facilities area, with kitchen, dining area, woodburner and outside seats. Just so lovely and friendly. Our hosts were really delightful, and so welcoming. Don't go there expecting city-style luxury though: this place is extremely well-kept and manager but all about living next to nature and connecting with the quiet.

    My husband is 5 ' 10" and the bed was only just long enough. May have been a struggle for anyone taller.

    This was just what we needed for a child free weekend away. Absolute heaven! The mattress was comfortable, the decor was lovely and the facilities were thoughtful and clean. You are not confined to the shepard hut. There is a communal bar and facilities area with comfortable sofas and a lovely decking. The hosts are lovely and encourage you to enjoy the grounds including thier forest. We are hoping to return for our anniversary. I came here just for the views but it is so much more.

    What a view! The hut was just what we wanted, it was warm and cosy. The hidden gem is the kitchen/dining area. A wood burner, comfy chairs and fairy lights made it feel absolutely magical. I can't recommend this place enough. We will be back!!!

    Exactly as advertised.

    Being really picky but the hob took an age to heat up and didn't get that hot so cooking took a while. The bed while warm and comfy was a standard double (as advertised) but myself and the wife not being exactly svelte were a little hemmed in. We still slept well though. I'd advise guests to make sure they have all of the food and drink they need before arrival as it's a bit of a trek to the nearest shop.

    Location is beautiful, and as horsey folk we were right at home. The communal areas were a blokes man shed heaven. Loads of interesting stuff to look at. The shepherd's hut was very warm / well insulated. No heating required even though our stay was mid April. Shower was lovely and hot! Our puppy was made very welcome.

    Beautiful location overlooking the valley. I love walking, and there are major walkways on the doorstep. The hosts were fantastic and recommended places to go. The Farmers Boy pub at the bottom of the valley served great food. I would love to go back there again. I really re-charged my batteries and felt more relaxed for sure
