lovely little shepherd hut
one of two shepherds hut situated at the top of field/garden with a two person hot tub which was lovely in the evening watching the stars above on the clear night, the hut itself is lovely and cosy with a small woodburner (lighter, kindle and logs supplied) and everything you needed was supplied. There are sheep fenced off in the middle of the field with surrounding apple trees and a stream at the bottom and chickens to the side. Had a great stay with our two small dogs -thank you

Plum hut Paignton superb
We had a great time at the Plumhut, great hosts met us and went through everything, very welcoming. Hut was as advertised, all you need plus a little bit more. Very quiet as required to have a relaxing break. Hot tub all ready to use, topped the break off. Totally recommend to everyone.
