Pros

The donkeys come to the gate and can be fed and groomed, providing a unique experience.

The hut is described as clean, cosy, and peaceful.

Free private parking is available on site.

A friendly farm dog often visits and enjoys playing fetch.

“The peace here is palpable, centred around the engaging presence of the donkeys - an interaction that forms the heart of any stay. While the description might undersell the facilities, the shepherd's hut is surprisingly well-equipped, even with a small freezer, and the views from it are simply fantastic. It's a place where genuine connection, whether with the friendly farm dog or the amenable donkeys, truly defines the experience.”
