  • "We had an absolutely delightful stay here, the shepherds hut was truly beautiful, set in tranquil surroundings and filled with everything you could possibly need."

    The attention to detail, both inside the hut and the grounds it was nestled in were exceptional. The owners have really thought of everything to make the stay enjoyable and unforgettable. The shepherds hut and grounds were absolutely spotless and so well maintained. The log fired hot tub was a lovely relaxing addition at the end of the day and if your a stargazer then there are plenty of shooting stars to be seen from here. We loved being surrounded by nature, watching the wild rabbits in the field opposite while listening to the birds. It felt like we were staying at a wellness retreat and we really didnt want to come home. Massive thankyou to the super friendly owners for our amazing stay here, this truly is a magical place.

  • "We absolutely loved the shepherd's hut and gardens."

    .. beautiful. We had all we needed thank you. The only thing we thought would help anyone else staying was that the coffee cafatiere was tiny and only for one person and there was two of us. This meant a lot of emptying and refilling which meant we didn't get to sit down together for our coffee at the same time. Easily fixed..needs a two person cafatiere. Apart from that.. brilliant

  • "Absolutely amazing!"

    We booked for 7 nights for a relaxing week and that's exactly what we got! The shepherds hut was well equipped, the log burner was lovely. The hot tub was brilliant and we used it every day, We even had robes for when we got out which was a lovely touch as was the bottle of wine which was waiting for us in the fridge! The post code provided takes you to the exact place which was handy. It's a very remote location and phone signal was very poor but this worked in our favour as we were able to completely switch off and relax. Thanks so much for a wonderful experience.

    Everything was perfect, Hot tub takes 1.30 hrs to heat and it is easy to deal with. Mattress a bit soft but ok for a couple of days. Highly recommended.

  • "Wonderful peaceful location just outside Penzance."

    The Shepherds hut was so cozy especially with the stormy weather we were having in January. We spent 7 nights here and we didn’t want it to end. There was a wooden shelter outside with lovely lights around which we would sit during the evening. The location was so good for touring a lovely part of Cornwall.The Shepherds hut was very clean with a very comfortable bed.We hope to return again in the near future.

  • "On Arrival to Penzance the weather was terrible, we followed instructions to the destination but overshot the gated entrance and ended up getting lost."

    Very remote but once we got our bearings was a delight. Being without phone signal and WiFi was great, no pressures from home, very quite, private and secluded, if this is what you want you're in for a treat. The Shepard's hut was very clean, well thought out with everything you need. Comfy and compact. Lovely option of a fire fuelled hot tub and in dry sunny weather outside seating. We have a lovely few days away visiting all the sights of Penzance, St Ives and all the little villages tucked away, Marazion and St Michaels Mount being our main focus. 4 nights weren't really long enough but really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

  • "Such a beautiful secluded location."

    The way the site has been set out, nestled in a little opening in the trees and surrounded by huge bolders and fox gloves is really special. Everything was very clean and looks very new still. Only a few miles from penzance and quite close to St Ives. We will definitely go back again.

    Perfect location away in the middle of countryside and internet signal was limited which meant we enjoyed each others company rather than playing on our phones. The bed was super comfy and the view from The little window view was gorgeous and relaxing. You could even make tea from your bed!!

    The one thing I would say is the stones walking up to the hut can be slippery and uneven, so be careful. The other thing is signage could be better from the road. Otherwise beautiful location and certainly very peaceful

PENZANCE

St Ives 8 miles. Helicopter to Isles of Scilly - 30 minutes

Penzance hosts Golowan, the Midsummer Carnival, and The Literary Festival. There are also The Exchange, Newlyn and Penlee Art Galleries. One of Cornwall’s most popular holiday areas is the spectacular sweep of Mount’s Bay, from the cliffside fishing village of Mousehole through Penzance and around to beautiful Marazion, the coastline hides a wealth of sandy beaches, rocky coves as well as winding village streets and other places to visit and explore. Connected by a causeway to the shore at Marazion is the National Trust’s stunningly beautiful St Michael’s Mount with its hilltop castle and Mediterranean gardens. Walk across at low water and take one of the ferry boats back when the tide is up. Penzance with its winding streets, shops, clubs, restaurants and harbour is a must as it is the jumping-off point for day trips to the Isles of Scilly as well as being the harbor. The South West Coast Path passing through Penzance winds its way along the clifftops towards Land’s End. On the way, stop off for a coffee and a rest at beautiful Lamorna Cove, explore the open air Minack Theatre and marvel at the cliffs as you approach Gwennap Head. A stunning walk for those seeking solitude, exercise and some of the UK’s best coastal scenery. Penzance is the perfect holiday base. Ideally placed for exploring this land of Celtic myth and legend and with enough to do and see in the immediate area to keep all the family occupied.
