An amazing stay! The hut is spacious, but also cosy. It’s in a fantastic spot, with beautiful views and easy to get around to lots of lovely walks. It is... read more fully kitted out and using the fire to cook was such a treat. We especially loved the outdoor shower! We absolutely loved it and will definitely come back in the Summer!

Lovely stay out in the country. Hut/shower kitchen area very clean.. I am a light sleeper so could hear traffic initially but once I put earplugs in it... read more was fine and it wasn’t a busy road. Would suggest you need a car if you want to get about as there are no paths on the side of the road so not safe to walk. Just a note that you need to bring towels for showering as the literature said towels provided but it’s tea and hand towels only. Jessica was very kind though and loaned us a couple. Lovely brewery a short drive away and of course the alpacas, sheep and chickens were entertaining. It just felt very relaxing and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.

The hosts have thought of everything to make the stay comfortable, romantic & enjoyable. We were lucky enough to have pleasant evenings making & cooking pizzas outside, & later enjoy... read more the warmth & comfort of the fire pit indoors. The accommodation is very well equipped & the 'pre-arrival' information is very informative & useful. The owners were very obliging although they have covered everything so there was very little need to disturb them. Feeding the animals was an added treasure. We would certainly love to return again, & recommend to anyone xx

A truly lovely place for a quiet getaway. Everything about the hut is lovely and the Alpacas are adorable! The hut was clean, and so cozy. We... read more loved that the ceiling was painted as the night sky, and the fairy lights twinkling with the fire in the evening. Great shower and bathroom/kitchen facilities with hot running water and flushing toilet. We had an amazing weekend.
The location is beautiful and the countryside view is stunning. Definitely make time to visit the local Ice Cream Parlour, which has a cafe as well as takeaway. If you are looking for shopping, maybe give Blackpool a go, we drove to Lancaster and the drive was lovely but the city centre was disappointing. We also tried to get a taxi to the pub recommended by Jessica, but we’re too far out for them to pick us up, so make sure you have a designated driver.

Wow, just home from this magical little place. Everything is considered and there is not one thing we would change about the experience. Such a great location for exploring, we... read more managed to fit in a farm trip (Greenland’s Farm Village - where you can feed pigs, goats and ponies) a coastal walk (Silverdale - untouched beauty) and the local brewery (Farmyard Ales), not to mention feeding the alpacas (on-site!) but the highlight really is the hut itself. In here you could be anywhere in the world, such a perfect escape. We are already planning our next visit!

Thank you for letting us stay with you, I was amazed when I first seen it, so cute! The place is amazing So quaint and close to lovely places.... read more
The complimentary beers and marshmallows were a lovely touch and tasted good, plus was nice knowing the beer was locally made.
Good amenities and I loved the fact the wc and shower were outside. A good shower to which I didn’t expect.
The best part, even though the hut was amazing was the animals. Especially when my partner got spat at by a alpaca, I’ve seen it all now lol

We absolutely loved our stay, a gorgeous little spot for a break. The hut looked just as good as it did in the listing photos and was the perfect size... read more for the two of us and we loved using the grill to make s'mores! Highlight recommended if you need a break from the world right now! A lovely and peaceful location, we visited Wallings Ice Cream, The Flower Bowl Entertainment Centre to watch a film and to The Cartford Inn for a delicious dinner- all within a short half hour drive.

when we arrived the grill hut was open and ready for us to make ourselves at home. the grill hut is super cosy and even given the "lovely" British weather... read more (rain and wind) it didn't disrupt our stay at all. if anything it made it better. snuggled up by the fire pit.
the animals are super friendly and very characteristic. hope the lil brown alpaca gets well soon though x
making pizzas was a lovely little touch and really fun to do together.
we enjoyed a lovely local walk with beautiful scenery.
and probably one of the best nights sleep we had.
thank you so much for a lovely, memorable night away x

The BBQ hut is amazing and beautiful little space, well I say little it has apple room for 2 people to sleep and we have six people in there sat... read more round the fire eating and drinking it was simply lovely and beautiful space. Again everything has been thought of all you need is food, towels and clothes and you wouldn’t need to leave the hut. It’s beautiful and warm relaxing and beautiful furnished highly recommend for a romantic couple get away or like us if your family is staying in the Belle tent brilliant family getaway. We went for a lovely walk at the local nature reserve aswell which was nice but there’s plenty to do local otherwise relax and just enjoy the animals feeding the alpacas was one of the highlights of our stay thanks again for a great visit we will be back for sure x

We had a lovely stay in the Hut and all the little touches were greatly appreciated.
It was a first for myself and my partner when it came to feeding... read more animals but we really enjoyed ourselves.
Unfortunately the weather wasn't on our side the night we arrived as it would have been nice to chill outside a bit more than what we got chance to... But that's the UK for you!
Overall, we had a really comfortable and enjoyable stay away for a couple of nights. The hut had everything that we needed and the stay was as advertised/expected.
Only slight negative, for me, was the road noise as it wasn't as remote as what I had imagined and I'm a light sleeper. However, my partner slept brilliantly and didn't hear a thing!
The place is really lovely and I would definitely recommend it if you are looking for a sweet little staycation for a night or so.

You might want to get back to nature in our Scandinavian style grill hut, which hosts an indoor fire pit for cooking and entertaining.
Or for a little bit more luxury book into one of our 2 pods and enjoy an outdoor hot bath looking out at the alpacas.
