    Very comfortable and as self catering we managed well. The owners had really put some thought into the design and were very informative of how things worked. We stayed for 4 nights to get away from the rat race and re-charge our batteries and that's exactly what we did. Spent 90% of our time at the hut and the hot tub. Loved it. Thank you.

    Thank you for your kind words. Property Owner

    Everything was perfect - the property was well looked after and had everything I needed, the welcome book was very helpful, the hot tub was clean and ready to jump straight into and the view was beautiful. The welcome basket of goodies and the golf buggy were lovely touches too! I will definitely be back again!

    If you are having a day staying at the hut then there is nothing better than popping into the hot tub multiple times to relax, unwind and take in that gorgeous view. So glad you had a nice time with us and we will look forward to welcoming you (and possibly your friends and family) back to Little Silver. Property Owner

    Everything has been thought through to provide all comforts in a compact space. The surroundings and that view make this a truly special place to stay if you are looking for somewhere to relax, recharge and spend quiet time with a loved one.

  • "The perfect place for pure relaxation!"

    I've honestly never stayed anywhere before that is so quiet. There is next to no road noise and one tiny train that goes past deep down in the valley every half hour, that's it. Other than that it's just nature and it's beautiful! Completely secluded, the privacy is great - you can just throw open the hut doors in the morning and there's not a soul in sight. Great hot tub, great dark skies, great bed, great waterfall shower with a surprisingly huge cubicle for the size of the hut. Buggies are fantastic fun - I wish more places followed suit! Can't recommend it enough.

    Thank you so much for your glowing review, very much appreciated. We are glad your stay with us met your expectations and you enjoyed all that the hut and grounds had to offer. Property Owner

    Shepards hut has everything you need, Peter and Lisa thought of everything. Amazing welcome hamper to get you started, the homemade apple juice was incredible. There are other shepards huts nearby, however the location and surroundings always means you are given your privacy. Very peaceful and quiet. Only 30-40 minutes drive to nearby beaches which were fantastic, we dipped in the hot tub in the morning, afternoon and night time which was great to relax. Me and my husband had a wonderful stay and will definitely returning and will be recommending to our family and friends. And finally the golf buggy was a lovely added treat to get to and from the hut.

  • "This place is wonderful and one of our absolute favourite places in the world, especially after staying here after our wedding then again for our 1st wedding anniversary."

    The only main feedback I have to give (as everything is so perfect) is the check out time is extremely early. Considering check in is quite late in the day (4pm) a later check out of 11:00am, for example, would at least allow guests to have their last breakfast coffee or dip in the hot tub before having to leave. At the moment, the whole morning is taken up by packing, washing up and getting ready to leave, that it doesn’t leave you much time to take in the most amazing morning views last minute. Appreciate this was introduced for covid but it maybe a good time to relax these measures a little more to allow guests a chance to soak in all the time they have here.

    We were greeted by Peter the owner who is friendly & welcoming. The golf buggy is such a good idea and such fun to take your luggage down to your shepherds hut. On arrival was a generous welcome pack which included homemade baked fresh bread their own honey & eggs. Such a lovely touch as well as wine, fresh milk, butter, the list goes on. The shepherds hut is lovely & spacious with a comfortable king size bed with an Alexa to listen to your favourite music, a Smart Tv and has an oven for cooking if you don’t want to eat out. Everything has been thought of. The hot tub is amazing to relax unwind and take in the lovely surroundings and views whilst listening to the birds tweeting to one another. We had a nice meal at the Bell at Chittlehampton which is only a couple of miles away but you will need to drive their. We defiantly would consider returning again one day.

    We booked to stay at the Little Silver Owl for our 10 year anniversary (and to get away from the madness that is 2020) and we couldn’t have picked a more perfect place. The hut itself is immaculate and has everything you could possibly need...and more! The quality of everything is insane, from the Eve mattress, to the comfiest pillows I’ve ever slept on (I really need to find out what brand they were) the Nespresso machine and the shower!!! We couldn’t understand how a little hut in the middle of Devon has better heat and water pressure than our flat in London. The views, I haven’t seen anything quite like it, even on a rainy November day they were beautiful. The highlight of our trip was certainly sitting in the hot tub, looking at the stars and hearing the owls hoot to each other, there’s nothing quite like it. Peter and Lisa and the most amazing hosts, even before we arrived we had arranged a little celebration package to be waiting for us. When we arrived Peter told us “we like to leave you alone and give you your space, but if you need anything please give us a text or call”, which is just what we wanted. Peter and Lisa are so welcoming and friendly and as we were leaving we stopped to chat to a woman who worked there (sorry we didn’t manage to catch he name) and she was also so lovely, friendly and wished us a safe journey home. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left it was honestly perfection, I couldn’t fault a single thing. Thank you so much for our incredible stay, we can’t recommend the Little Silver Owl enough and we can’t wait to return!
