Shepherd's hut
Liked: It was absolutely amazing! We stayed in the Sheperds Hut, which was quirky, very clean and had an extremely comfortable bed, with stunning views of the tor in the distance! The toilets and shower were very clean and tidy and well maintained. Most definitely going to book again. A lovely lady who even sent a curtesy message the day before with instructions on how to get to the site and offered me to call if I got lost!
