"Simply the most wonderful venue for a family/friend gathering - can't recommend this magical place enough. Glamping in the most gorgeous shepherds huts, hanging out around the campfire, tons of room, all the little details taken care of: woodburning stoves in every hut and in the bales, lots of blankets, chairs, kitchen equipment, the solar lamps, and fairy lights, the hammocks, the clean and bright showers... each hut decorated differently and beautifully and a great area for walking. Top top marks!"
