Couldnt recommend this place more. The location was be more perfect, its lovely and private but close enough to Looe (25 mins away) and other local places. The shepherds hut is spacious and well equipped, clean and comfy! Its sat in a beautiful spot right in front of the river and the hot tub is the perfect way to end the day. Lovely owners too! :)Read more Hide

Honestly the most relaxed holiday weve had in a long while. Sitting in the hot tub or around the fire whilst listening to the river flowing and watching the dragonflies dancing. Everything cooked on the bbq, although there is a hob you can use. It was a real sensory experience. Thank you for choosing such a picturesque setting so close to the riverRead more. We didnt choose to venture very far as it was lovely not feeling the need to drive anywhere however we did find it was an easy walk to the pub through the countryside. A beautiful shepherds hut topped it all off. Will definitely be back . Hide
