  • "A lovely Shepherds Hut in a beautiful location."

    A very relaxing break and we had everything we needed, we slept very well and enjoyed the peace and quiet. Our host was very welcoming and helpful with information on the local area.

    Justine, thank you so much for your positive comments. Lovely having you both here to visit at Spring House Farm. Hope to see you again in the future. Kind regards, Maeve. Property Owner
