Shepherd Hut at Aston Reviews

Louise
More wood for the hot tub and fire would have been great and it kept dry somewhere and smaller pieces at the big ones took ages to burn or didn't burn at all. The site and hut was lovely, helpful staff and a lovely clean and comfortable hut. Loved the break and would come again.
Little but more privacy around the hot tub would be great but everything else was perfect.
Sarah-jane
Lovely little shepherd's hut. Comfortable bed. Nice touches like milk in the fridge and extra towels for the hot tub. Lovely views. Bar area on site is a pleasant addition. Friendly service and nice simple food. Good value for our 3 night stay. Negatives were the hot water was only lukewarm. There are shower blocks on site to use instead of the onsuite though. Not very private. This might be an issue when the site is busier and I think should be clearer on the description and pictures. Chemical toilet. I think this should be clear in the description. It was all very clean but I would like to know .
