Frederick
A wonderful week for 50th anniversary the flowers and Prosecco was much appreciated and a a rarity the weather was fantastic. All in all a rather place to stay .
Andrea
Absolutely perfect! Such a comfortable shepherds hut, with a touch of luxury, in beautiful peaceful surroundings. The hot tub adds to the relaxing experience. Great views of mountains and sea. The hosts are welcoming and helpful. Already planning our next visit!
WOW!!! The view from this property is to die for and if you like peace and quite this is the place for you. We have just spent 5 nights here and did not want to leave. After we booked it we wondered if it was going to be big enough but it is bigger than it looks in the pictures and ideal for two people. The Magpies nest is so well designed with a large double bed, comfortable armchairs, extending table, kitchen area and a good size showertoilet. The doors open onto a good size decking with chairs and table. When you come down the steps onto the patio there is another table and chairs, bbq and a great hot tub, unfortunately we only used it twice because of the Welsh weather. Thankyou so much Owen and lola, we thoroughly enjoyed staying here and the property and the views, are beautiful
Michelle
Beautiful shepherds hut, clear instructions for arrival and departure and good communication from the host. Really enjoyed the stay.
Fantastic hut in a beautiful location. The hut was fantastic, and really appreciated the flowers and cozy vibe to the place.
Elliot
Superb getaway from the hustle and bustle, property is clean and tidy and with all you need for a break. Hot tub was a dream, looking out to the hills and sea, beautiful place to stay. Will definitely be back.
Lawrence
Fantastic little getaway . Perfect to escape the daily chaos and just simply relax .
Perfect Sheppard's Hut Getaway for two. We spent our anniversary weekend at this amazing Sheppard's Hut in North Wales, and it was amazing. The Hut itself was beautifully decorated and had everything you could need for a cozy and comfortable stay, plus the owners were so lovely and helpful they really made us feel welcome. The welcome bottle of Prosseco was a nice touch. The outdoor space was completely private and we had incredibly views perfect for enjoying morning cuppa surrounded by nature. We spent ages in the evening in the hot tub or just sat outside as the weather was lovely. Overall it was the perfect romantic escape for our anniversary, we can't wait to come back again
Stuart
Lovely quiet location with superb views of the sea and mountains. Good sized hut with all you need for a comfortable stay. Really enjoyed sitting outside on the raised decking area. BBQ and hot tub were also great!
We had a very nice experience. Very nice and quiet place where you can enjoy quality time. We had the honor to be the first clients of the cottage, so everything inside was new and clean. Hot tub is amazing and and the wiew is absolutely unique. We will definitely be back when we get the chance. Thank you Owen for your help and I wish you have a good business. Thank you.
