The property is very dog friendly with a dog walk opposite, the hosy is very friendly and welcoming, there is a small co-op and pub with nice food about half a mile away , the property was very clean warm and well equipped with everything you could want
Absolutely beautiful Shepherds Hut in a great area of the New Forest.The accommodation is set in a beautiful landscape and it’s ideal for exploring the New Forest. Close to a shop and pub too.The hosts were lovely and nothing was too much trouble.
Lovely cabin in a really nice location. The hosts were very friendly, and made the process easy and welcoming. They checked on us Atleast once a day to ensure that everything was okay. Could not recommend this place enough.
Had a very nice 3 night stay, and will certainly be looking to return in the future (perhaps to one of the larger properties, as we found the Shepherds Hut a bit on the small side with our large German Shepherd !!).
Such an adorable shepherds hut. It had everything you needed for a relaxing stay. Clean and cosy.
The hosts were lovely and friendly. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to friends.
We had 3 wonderful days in this tiny house. The owners are very friendly.
The house has everything you need except WiFi inside the cabin but perfect on the porch.
Great shepherd hut in quiet location right next to the New Forest. It has everything you need and very stylish. Lovely and warm when the heating was on. Big car park and nice garden to look out to. We loved it and would stay again.
The moment I walked in I fell in love with the decor, the hut was spotlessly clean and smelt wonderful, close to a gorgeous wood you can walk to, also a great pub to visit, only downside wifi and dryers, we had loads of washing to do and the dryer wasn’t working properly so cost a fortune
The Shepherd’s Hut was lovely, we really enjoyed our short stay. Did some lovely walks in the forest nearby. Bed was comfortable, and the shower was good. The Kitchen quite small but no problem if you want to do something basic like pizza.
Loved our shepherd’s hut, small but perfect, comfortable and quirky. So peaceful, surrounded by the beautiful New Forest. Very dog friendly, dog walking area outside of hut, and endless forest walks. Welcoming pub within walking distance serving good beers and food. Thank you Dennis and Heather, we have had a very relaxing weekend.
Both of us enjoyed our stay immensly. It was a lovely peaceful setting right on tge edge of the New Forest. The Shepherds Hut was beautiful and clean. We couldn't have wished for a more relaxing couple of days. John & Tanya
Lovely accomodation. Everything you could want for a couple nights and nice and clean.
Wifi is bit patchy inside guess because of metal sidings but outside its very good. Cant fault the accomodation though. Lovely and peaceful and nice outside area if you get the good weather
