One night in Half Term

Two teachers enjoyed a night away during half term. Cannot fault the communication from the host. Clear instructions upon arrival. We loved the opportunity to feed the lambs. Breakfast items was waiting for us in the fridge already. We completed the jigsaw puzzle - a few pieces were missing. A knob came off the handle of the the cupboard with fridge and a slat on the put up table was broken. Everything else was faultless. We enjoyed our time and would return. A lovely pub just up the road served us dinner and drinks.

Hut with a view!!

My daughter and I had the most relaxing peaceful stay in the beautifully decorated Rumwolds hut. We were lucky enough to enjoy lamb cuddles on arrival before walking across the field to our home for the night. We spent the whole afternoon until dusk just sitting outside on the picnic bench drinking tea, chatting, sheep-watching, admiring the view & listening to the birds ! After dark we lit the log burner and kept it on low to see us through the chilly night, with lambs huddled against the fencing while their mums grazed nearby. The breakfast hamper produce was wonderful & after getting up early to help bottle feed the lambs, we still had time to cook up delicious sandwiches to eat outside with our last cuppa, then all too soon it was time to wave good bye. until next time .......there definitely will be a next time & we have promised ourselves to stay two nights! one word "PERFECTION"

First experience in a shepherd's hut.

What an adventure!! Not only visiting more of East Sussex and Kent but staying in a Shepherd's Hut on a working farm. It was everything I expected and more. Total comfort with everything, almost, at arms length. Forget sleeping under canvas or in a caravan, this is the way to go!

Perfect escape - we'll be baaaa-ck!

Rumwold was a perfect escape and getaway from the heat of the city during summer – we’ll definitely be back! We stayed in Rumwold during one of the July heatwaves and found it to be a brilliant antidote to London’s heat and intensity. The farm is such a peaceful place to spend time, and waking up and spending time around the friendly sheep was a wonderfully relaxing experience. We loved being able to buy Romney wool, and were exceptionally grateful to Kristina who allowed us to spend time with some of the bottle feeding lambs too! The hut was beautifully appointed and really well equipped. We found a brilliant range of products ready for our use, and loved the range of things that were available – we could easily have stayed for much longer and still had all we needed. Perhaps the only thing that we’d benefit from is figuring out some way to get a little shade to the outdoor space – just so we could make the most of the views all day. The west-facing field allowed us to capture some wonderful sunsets, and the peace and quiet was just what we needed. And what a wonderful location! With Dymchurch only a 5-10 mins drive down the road, a nearby Tesco Express and plenty of good food options including fabulous take away fish & chips and the Ocean Inn, this was a perfect base for us to explore bits of the Kent Coast. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and can’t wait to return in different seasons!

A wonderful shirt get away

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Rumwold shepherds hut. Perfect location for seeing the local area, we spent a day at Port Lympne and had a Sunday roast at The Woolpack Inn not far away. The communication and services have been brilliant, the little touches and aesthetic were wonderful. We are planning to come back with our little one and stay at the family hut in the spring.

Short late summer stay

We returned to Rumwold for a 3 night mid week break. It's a lovely location for a relaxing retreat or to visit local attractions. We will keep going back!

Birthday/Anniversary Getaway

My wife and I wanted to find somewhere really nice and quiet away from our busy lives, to spend our anniversary and birthdays just after the 6 weeks holiday. On arrival, we found the parking and shepherds hut very easy to find. When we opened the doors to the hut we were both in amazement of what the inside looked like. It was better than the pictures. The bed and pillows were incredibly soft, the hut was warm and cozy, the outside area was perfect to sit and chat. The views were beautiful especially being able to lay in bed and watch the sun set perfectly. We purchased a breakfast box which was really tasty. It was the most getaway for us to recharge and celebrate. We will be booking again. :)

An absolutely stunning get away!

From the moment of booking, the experience of interacting with Bloom Stays was lush. From the detailed preparation information to the welcome text, they have considered every part of your journey. The hut itself was stunning and had everything you could need for a comfy stay. Not to mention the stunning views and of course, all of the sheep. I would absolutely stay again and recommend to everyone.

Such a lovely stay

We had a lovely time staying in the Shepherds hut. It was peaceful being amongst the animals. The arrival process was super easy and Kristina was super helpful and communicative. We loved being able to cuddle and feed the lambs too. We will be back next year!

Perfect country getaway!

We loved staying during lambing season and getting to feed and cuddle the little lambs. It was so peaceful and there is plenty to do around the area if you have a car such as the white cliffs of Dover walk, visit Folkestone, visit Canterbury, etc. Kristina was a very friendly and communicative host!

Cosy staycation in Kent

We stayed for 1 night in the Rumwold hut at the beginning of May. It was the perfect setting for a quiet countryside retreat and we were able to relax amongst the sheep on the farm The hut was self catering with all the equipment we needed for cooking, ensuite bathroom, robes and a soft comfy bed. Outside we had a terrace and a BBQ with a dining area As it was lambing season, we were able to help feed the new lambs which was such a lovely experience We loved our time here and would definitely come back for another relaxing time away from London

Amazing, best birthday celebration ever!

We stayed at this amazing shepherds hut and had the perfect night away. The hut itself was so cosy, with all the amenities and cute little touches we could have asked for. The location was picturesque , relaxing and calming. The amazing night was topped off with the best birthday surprise of bottle feeding the baby lambs , which made it all the more exciting. The host was absolutely lovely and so kind. We will without a doubt be coming back!

Relaxing!

This is a great place to get away to. Wide open skies, sheep in the field and hens around the door all make it a great place to unwind. The huts are well kitted out, with many details thought of.

Mud!

Hi. Everything was brilliant apart from the lethal mud getter no to the hut. I appreciate it is a working farm but there needs to be some sort of path to the huts as the mud made it treacherous A small point on an otherwise great experience Thx S

Birthday/ Valentines weekend getaway!

I booked this lovely hut for my boyfriends birthday/ valentines weekend. The booking process was simple and easy. I was offered a breakfast box for an additional cost - which I would highly recommend! I also arranged for a valentines hamper to be in the hut on arrival, which didn't disappoint! The scones were amazing! On arrival the lovely host, Kristina, I believe her name was welcomed us to their home/ farm. She gave us our key and left us to make our way over to the hut and settle in. The hut was lovely, clean and spacious- everything we needed for our weekend away. The hut was decorated with red heart balloons and rose petals which was a lovely touch. Our breakfast box - consisted of bacon, eggs, sausages, bread , butter and milk was already in the fridge ready for the next morning. We enjoyed our cosy indoor log fire which kept our hut nice and toasty. The bed was very comfy and clean. The next morning, we made full use of our kitchen area which had everything equipped. It was lovely to cook, sit and enjoy breakfast with a beautiful view of the marshes and watching the sheep and farm dog roaming around nearby. We was able to check in 1 hours earlier and check out at 12 which gave us a nice slow start to our Sunday morning. The shower was lovely and warm with shampoo, conditioner, body wash and moisturiser all provided by the farm from their own sheep- which smelt lovely. We had a very relaxing, quiet and chilled weekend and will most definitely be returning! Everything is thought about perfectly designed to make your weekend and relaxing and stress free. Thank you again for a fabulous stay x

Perfect retreat in picturesque settings

The owners have thought very carefully about how your visit can be enhanced. Everything from the surroundings, to the hut itself is just perfect! Well equipped, cosy and I cannot wait to return. I especially loved the easy app guide detailing information you may need from local pubs to hiking trails. Booking is a must!

Perfect for a short break

Lovely quiet location in middle of sheep. Compact but beautifully appointed accommodation. Good quality welcome pack . Very handy to visit the Marshes ( we wanted to re-visit a lot of the stunning old Churches of the Romney Marsh) and about 30 mins from Dungeness. Kristina very friendly and helpful. The only niggle I would have was the arrival instructions said NOT to use the postcode but to use the road name. Our satnav didn't allow for that so we had to use the postcode and spent a lot of the journey quite anxious we would not end up in the right place. The postcode brought us to the property perfectly so I don't know why we were told not to use. Would be delighted to return again .

Unique property in great location.

Rumwold is so characterful and a brilliant use of a small space. Comfortable bed, very well equipped with incredible views over the marsh. Beautiful sunsets. It is a great location for walking/cycling/great restaurants. Very peaceful at night with visits from the sheep and chickens during the day which was entertaining! A visit to the wool shop is essential.
