The single shepherd's hut sits in its own paddock – handy for guests arriving with horses – and comes thoughtfully equipped with a wetroom, woodburner, fridge, air fryer and a breakfast hamper including porridge, flapjack and croissants. There's a utility room with washers and dryers, plus secure bike storage and repair facilities for cyclists tackling the surrounding trails. The moorland setting is made for stargazing after sunset, and the hut's little arbour provides a cosy spot to settle with coffee or wine.

The ladies inside were so friendly and the pie and fruit scones were delicious. An absolute hidden treasure. So glad the road we took ended there. 5 months ago Β· via Google Chris Fletcher β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Wonderful find. Quality meals with local ingredients. Cakes are homemade and excellent. Card payments and cash. Wifi. 4 months ago Β· via Google Emma M-D β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Really remote, back of beyond, down single track roads, but so worth it. Hospitality was 10/10, such a selection of tasty cakes all served with a sliced piece of strawberry and orange, really thoughtfully presented. The decor is beautiful, as is the attention to detail in the garden too. The views are to die for and this is the perfect stop on a walk round the valley or starting point, especially for visiting the nearby kilns and remains of the iron mines, which are also spectacular. This place is also dog friendly. 2 years ago Β· via Google Saskia Newid β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Fantastic place, beautiful garden with flowers and fantastic view, gorgeous homemade food. I had mackerel pate which had a lovely lemony taste, and the courting cake with fresh strawberries and homemade jam was delicious.
