"The whole experience was amazing from start to finish."
The shepherds pie and wine was a lovely touch. Everything you needed was in the hut. The hot tub was amazing and warm enough to use throughout the whole stay. Very private. I would definitely recommend for a relaxing stay

"A lovely little gem in a beautiful setting!"
Comfy, cosy, peaceful, well equipped, great explanation of directions on your welcome email. Recommendations would be to add a corkscrew, as we had some wine we brought with us that we couldn't open in the end, that's all we missed though, as everything else was thought of, even a torch and lighter!

"Absolutely loved our stay here!"
The hut was so peaceful and relaxing. It had all the standard ammenities in the property so you only need to pack some food. It backed onto a field of cows so if you take your dog I'd keep that in mind as they do come close to the fence. Really enjoyed the shepherd's pie too, was a lovely touch.

Travel light clothes wise as there is not much space inside for hanging clotges etc! But the cabin has all the home comforts required. Wood burning stove is an asset and kept it very cosy.

The surprise of Shepheards pie and a bottle of fizz upon arrival was a thoughtful and welcoming touch, setting the tone for a memorable getaway.

"Only giving 5 stars as there is no 6 stars."
Had the best time, totally relaxed vibe, fantastic pub within walking distance and lots of places to explore. Met the lovely owner just as we were leaving after 3 days which made us feel very welcome and trusted with their property and our privacy respected. We knew they were only a few feet away if we required any help but didn’t as everything had instructions and was well thought through. Can’t wait to go back and although all the accommodations are In beautiful settings, I think ‘Sunset’ offers the best views and privacy. Congratulations on your vision.

"Generally we loved the cabin."
It was so peaceful away from it all . Hot tub was brilliant & relaxing
A few minor observations which didn’t spoil our stay & are intended to be constructive
1 A welcome letter from owner with a few simple instructions for heater, cooker etc would be good
2 There were some cobwebs above the chimney over the fire
3 Some form of clothes hanging/ storage would help
As I say we enjoyed it but these would have made it even better

"We had a lovely relaxing stay at High Rigg last weekend."
The accommodation was beautiful and as described. The owners had thought of everything that you might need, including a filling meal and fizz for your first night. Shepherd's Sunset is located towards the back of the property, down a little walkway so there are no passing cars, if it wasn't for the cows and the cats you wouldn't see another soul. The views were stunning and would change with the seasons. The hot tub is under cover so can be enjoyed whatever the weather. Lastly, the owner is a lovely friendly and helpful chap. I have already recommended this little gem to friends and colleagues, it's perfect!

"Outstanding Mini-moon break @ High Rigg Shepherds Sunset."
Beautifully done & all facilities required to make your stay so comfortable. Very private & the hot tub was such a great relax after a day out.We did struggle to find it at first, but just gave the owner a quick call & he kindly gave us further instructions. A lovely touch was the shepherds pie waiting in the oven and a chilled bottle of fizz.
We popped up to Gretna Outlet for some shopping therapy, took a drive to Penrith & then into Pooley Bridge, which is beautiful with easy access to Ullswater.
Do not hesitate, if you want a relaxing few days away in beautiful surroundings then please choose this accommodation. Thank you for a wonderful break.

"The owners were on holiday when we went to the lodge."
However, the son made us feel welcomed and made sure any issues were rectified. The only issue was the fire alarm kept sounding, but this was fixed immediately. The lodge itself was very comfortable with everything you need, from pots and pans to utensils. The hot tub was serviced everyday and was needed after a long day of walking. We did meet the owner on the last day and he was very friendly. The nights were silent and relaxing which made the stay even better.
