Don't take our word for it...
Thank you Emma, we had a beautiful quiet stay and loved the location!
We had the pleasure of being the first guests at the garden den and we would 100% recommend to anyone, such a lovely outlook from the shepherds hut really peaceful and even a few hares hopping about which was nice to see. The hut was finished to a high standard and had everything you could think of! Emma was really helpful and sent over all the info needed before we arrived, 10/10
A gorgeous place to stop in. The furnishing of the den couldn’t have been to a higher quality and the surrounding fields were incredibly peaceful
Cosy little shepherd’s hut with lovely surroundings and nearby village with home of Stilton creamery and local butchers.
Bottle of Prosecco on arrival was the perfect finishing touch to make our trip feel that little bit more extra special,
Me and Tanya had lovely evenings break at Emma's hut. We cooked steaks on the BBQ and fully appreciated the surroundings and peacefulness of the hut. The place is made to a pristine manor, the bed was so comfortable. The air con was an absolute delight to help with the heat.
Perfect night away, would have stayed longer if we could have because it was a beautiful location!
