"Welcoming pack includes Devon cream tea, two small bottled juice drinks in the fridge."
This property is very quiet, also dark at night an Ideal place to chill and pet friendly. Very warm with very comfortable bed, pillows and quilt. What an ideal beusette property. An open invitation offered to join owners to local pub on quiz night. Extremely polite, pleasant helpful owners.

"We were very impressed with how the Shepherds hut was fitted out ."
The Owners went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable .. even providing extras ( cream tea . Apple juice milk etc . They had lovely garden which they were happy for us to walk through ,with stream nearby and lambs to watch in field nearby . Directions etc good but need care coming out onto Shaldon road
All positive but I would say that to stay there it helps if you are used to spending time in accommodation with limited space .. and we are as we have recently sold a small motorhome so this Shepherd’s hut suited us nicely. !! Lovely rural situation with some attractive villages and three good pubs nearby for eating out . Would definitely recommend it !

"Beauty nature all round, we we're lucky enough to see a deer in the garden, whiles enjoying our morning cuppa."
Made to feel home, with a welcome of scones, milk, apple juice and bottled water. Hot water on tap for the outdoor bath!
Walking distance to Coombe Celler pub, highly recommend, dogs welcome and views across the water, with a beautifully sunset. Only a 15min drive was a great all weather walk Stover country park, located in the car park is a little van with refreshments. Lakes, wildlife and difficult routes to walk. Sheldon "The Clipper Cafe" absolutely gorgeous food and drink, located on the beach, with a ferry to take you across to Teignmouth (cash only). The Shepherd's Hut is a perfect location!

"Lovely accommodation providing all that you need, including your own private garden space."
Great location for trips out around Devon. Some narrow country lanes to get to the Shepherd's Hut, but it's Devon. What do you expect? Easy access to a couple of pubs in walking distance, both serving food. And a surprise gift of scones, jam and cream from the owners for a welcome Devon cream tea. Owners on hand but not obtrusively so.

"Lovely quiet time in the shepherd's hut."
The weather was awful (January) but I was warm and safe in the hut. It is small, which I got used to, but I'm glad it was just me, particularly as I couldn't sit outside in that weather. I had a lovely hot bath outside under the stars, even in January. The owners have put a lot of care into all the amenities in the cabin. Great kitchenware! I was on a little retreat, and it was perfect for that. Walks down by the river and in the country lanes.

"I had a lovely 2 nights in November with my young dog."
I was concerned at first about how tiny it was and the long evening but it was lovely. Some lovely touches - orange juice, milk, scones and cream were there on arrival. Super comfy bed. I really enjoyed exploring the area, particularly the estuary and a coffee at the Woodshed, the tunnel to Ness Beach at Shaldon and the back beach at Teignmouth.

"Really enjoyed our time in the shepherd’s hut - such a beautiful setting and much to do in the area (can recommend the Wild Goose pub for great food and drinks, and the local beaches and walks are fantastic)."
The hut is small but perfectly formed and equipped. The outside facilities are of real benefit in good weather - including the firepit, bbq and rolltop bath. And a very warm welcome too from the hosts Marc and Sarah.

"We had a lovely few days staying in this very attractive shepherd's hut, set in a delightful garden and beautiful area."
It has perfect views, a gorgeous flower boarder just outside and feels very private. We really appreciated the sitting out area where we ate our meals and were luckily blessed by good weather. We had everything we needed inside and outside the hut. The availability of the croquet set was an unexpected bonus! The hut has all the cooking facilities we needed, a really comfortable bed, excellent shower and the outdoor bath with hot water on tap is an amazing luxury! The hut is located conveniently close to the village, wonderful walks and easy access to several very good beaches. Many thanks to Marc and Sarah for making this such a wonderful holiday venue.

"Marc and Sarah are wonderful hosts and their little dog Ted is a real cutie."
On arrival we were pleasantly surprised with our cream teas and milk, orange juice and water in the fridge. The location of the shepherds hut is beautiful and peaceful and you really do feel like you are getting away from it all. It is also ideally situated near to some very scenic views, in particular the small walk to the Coombe Cellars restaurant and pub offers beautiful views along the river Teign.
During our stay we were mostly blessed with ok weather but one day we did have a downpour. This was the most challenging day for us as I’m a fairly big guy and struggled with having to stay in the hut during the evening. If I could offer one small suggestion for improvement it would be perhaps an awning or a small area that the outside seats could be put under so they could be kept dry and we could have still sat outside during the downpour. As it was we had to open the doors of the shepherds hut which attracted the insect wildlife. This really was a minor thing though and we certainly cannot blame Marc and Sarah for the British Summer.
Overall we loved our stay here and we feel like we’ve had a great, relaxing holiday. Thanks Marc and Sarah, you have done a wonderful job with the shepherds hut and thought of pretty much everything that people would need in their stay.

"The weather is always the factor to consider and not one that is the gift of the owners."
This is a beautiful, peaceful place with lovely hosts. Just note that a shepherd's hut is dimensionally challenging if its pouring with rain. Otherwise this is perfect.

"Book it now!"
I went with my little dog and we had the best little get away ever. Arrival instructions were very clear, the hut was immaculate with absolutely everything I needed. Incredibly comfortable stay, the bed is a 10/10 and the linen felt really high quality.
The hosts are lush and made me feel incredibly welcome, gave fab recommendations for local walks and food. The hut feels very private, like your own little world with so many luxurious touches throughout. A lot of thought and effort has clearly gone into this holiday let and it shows.
If I could give you 10 stars I would! Great stay, couldn’t have been better ❤️

"We had the most wonderful stay here!"
When we arrived the whole process was so easy and we was able to park up and check in with ease. The location is brilliant with lots to do in the village and a little beach/river a short 5/10 mins down the road. We took our dog with us for his first mini break and it was brilliant for him, he had the whole garden area to run around in and was no restricted at all. The owners were fantastic with contacting us to make sure everything was ok and putting us at ease about our dog and how he can venture anywhere. The Shepards hut itself was fantastic, so beautiful!! the pictures do not do it justice. The bed was so comfortable and cosy and we even had some welcome scones waiting for us. Couldn’t have been happier with our first mini break with the dog and definitely planning to return here in the near future!

"Sarah and Marc were fantastic hosts."
The hut is sited at the end of a wonderful garden, which is very private and peaceful. The hut is beautifully furnished and has everything you would ever need for a self catering holiday. We loved the many outdoor seating areas, fun outdoor bath, firepit and hammocks under the trees by the small stream. Perfectly located for walks to local pubs and an easy walk to Shaldon. We would love to return as there is so much to do in this quiet part of Devon.
Thank you so much, we are really glad you enjoyed your stay and we also hope you can return :)
