Had a great stay at the hut, everything you could possibly need, very clean, cosy, fabulous views and piece & quiet. Host came to say hello, lovely & friendly .. will definitely be back
Would definitely recommend.
We had a great stay in Croft Head, the views are amazing, and it was lovely to see the lambs every morning! The hut had everything we needed for our short stay and we probably would have used the fire pit on an evening if the weather had been kinder.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Shepherds hut. A fantastic location, so peaceful and beautiful. Watching the sun set over the water each evening was fantastic. The shepherds hut was really clean and had everything we needed and the bed was very comfy. We would love to come back again!
We were lucky to spend the bank holiday weekend in this little gem of a find - amazing views down to bassenwaithe, so quiet and peaceful - and the hut was so lovely. Would absolutely recommend and will be back!
All very good ,
Huts were exceptional and host was very friendly and welcoming.
It was a great base for peace quiet and relaxation exploring the area.
Would thoroughly recommend
Just returned from couple of nights in Matthew's Shepherd Hut.
Stunning location, breathtaking views, immaculate accomodation, first class host.
What's not to love.
Cant wait to return
We had an amazing stay! Everything was perfect.. beautiful area and the Shepard's hut had everything we needed, sadly there was another shepherds hut next to us and we was under the impression we would be totally alone BUT overall gorgeous place to stay!
A beautiful and unique stay in a first class shepherd's hut
This shepherd's hut is a delightful place to stay. Every detail was perfect and everything that you could possibly need was available inside the hut. The view to the lake was delightful with a bench outside to sit on and relax. Good facilities, hot water, heaters if you need them, and a very comfortable bed. Really enjoyed my stay, thank you!
The hut is as described on the website - no nasty surprises. Views are stunning even in the rain. Plenty of space to bbq / camp fire outside. It is quite remote spot which is what we were looking for and if there had been no cloud Iâm sure the star show wouldâve been spectacular.
We were looking for a quiet and relaxing couple of days and the Shepherds hut gave us just that. It was small and very cozy. It was warm on arrival which was very welcoming. If i were to give some feedback i would say that a couple of side lamps would be helpful. Overall an excellent stay.
We really enjoyed this property. For a cozy space itâs very well equipped and is so well designed it felt spacious. It was so peaceful we loved waking up next to the sheep and enjoying morning coffee outside with views of the lake. Our host was very helpful with showing us a short cut through his property to start a walk. Check in and out very easy. Would stay again.
