Betty shepherd's hut
Liked: This is our 3rd year running staying at Foxwold and it was fantastic as usual. We love getting 'off grid' to relax, unwind and reset. Foxwold is set in a beautiful part of the country and it is always peaceful and tranquil. Kat and Andy are fantastic hosts, they keep the site in great condition, the huts are alway clean and comfortable and nothing is too much for them. We will certainly be back next year and for many more years to come.

Ruby shepherd's hut
Liked: Peaceful location, great hosts who were friendly, helpful with advice on where to go in local area, loved the outdoor shower and compost loos. Everything needed for a break away from it all. Great skies for star gazing around the campfire.
Disliked: A little muddy in places due to the heavy rainfall, so glad I took my wellies!

George shepherd's hut
Liked: It's a wonderful place to relax. Marshmallows were prepared in the hut and I was able to roast them on the wood stove and enjoy them. I would have liked to stay a few more days if possible. I also recommend enjoying it with your dog. Outdoor shower time is also fan. It was a little difficult on a rainy day, but interesting!

Betty shepherd's hut
Liked: The whole site is really pretty and well thought out with some useful extras like a communal fridge and charge point. Our hut (Betty) was beautiful and the camp kitchen had everything we needed, even things we weren’t expecting like wooden chopping boards, sharp knives and nice crockery and glass wear. The hosts were so kind and welcoming and set a fire pit and bbq up for us, making sure we knew how to get them both going! They were also really helpful in giving us directions and recommending local attractions (I.e the pub and cafe!)
Disliked: The compost loos - sorry!
