This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on all reviews.

Response from the owner Thank you for your lovely review and we are pleased to hear that you enjoyed our location and found the Shepherds Hut comfortable - especially the bed. Our apologies regarding the torch - we do leave one in the hut, hung up behind the door. They regularly go missing but we do replace and we're sorry if this was not the case during your stay. We did try an electric kettle but it was left on top of the hot plate and had the bottom burnt out, so we thought it safer to stick with the whistling kettle. There is an electric kettle in the Utility Barn/Games Room, for guests to use. It is the first time we have had a toaster suggested, as there is a grill in the mini oven,but it is a good idea and we will look to provide one. Thank you again for your feedback, it is appreciated.
