Sarah-jayne

Beautiful and with lovely, far reaching views. Farmland on all sides and you can even see ships making their way down the Trent from the back of the hut. Everything we needed for a weekend stay the fire warmed the hut up so quickly although remember to bring your own fuel! Bed was huge and super comfy, great views while I had my morning cuppa. Friendly alpacas and sheep in the field behind always having a nosey at what we were doing. Lots of wild life around and easy location to get to the Humber and the various nature reserves along the Humber banks many not dog friendly though so do check!. We had a day out in Lincoln which was an easy hours drive. Would love to come back in the summer to try out the decking and the BBQ!

Would recommend amending WiFi description and mentioning good 5G. Incredibly comfortable bed great high powered, hot shower. Two gas hob burners and little oven perfect for making meals. Lovely little wood burner to take away the morning and evening chill. Enjoyed waking up to Guinea fowl, alpacas, sheep, hares, deer and a peregrine falcon hovering overhead. Super sunrises and super peaceful. Spotlessly clean. Will goes above and beyond in helping his guests. Highly recommend.

Brenda

Fabulous stay. Super quiet. Just what I needed. Very comfy bed and amazing power shower. Perfect for my dog too. WiFi a bit erratic but as I was there to completely shut down, that didn't matter. Really hope to be able to visit again. Will was very friendly and helpful. Thanks so much.

John T

Hello, Another holiday at this great location and the excellent Shepherd's Hut, this is my second time within a month. Nice to see Will again. Plenty of birds both on the farm and at Blacktoft Sands close by. Enjoyed watching the combines getting the wheat in and the wildlife. Glad to see the Alpaca's again. Looking forward to next visit.

Amanda

Its perfect place for rest and relaxation Lovely little hut with everything you need

Kathryn

A lovely place to stay we have booked to go back in January for two weeks. Only one thing really there is a smell of cigarette smoke in the cottage especially in the cupboard in the bedroom but this still hasn't put us off staying again. Owner has thought of everything lovely property .

Matthew

The hut was beautiful and just what we were looking for. It's finished to a high standard with a very comfy bed and really good shower. The owner was very friendly and helpful. It was genuinely dog friendly. It was so peaceful and relaxing, and the view over the alpacas field was an extra treat!

Shepherds hut in garthorpe where we stayed for 3 nights was a really nice place, so peaceful and quiet, it was the perfect get away. Very clean and comfortable. It was a great place for the dog aswell. The owner Will was a such a lovely guy and very helpful. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend

Norman

Brilliant it was as advertised. Warmly welcomed lovely friendly host very caring and helpful.

Sandra

Wow! So many words describe this wonderful place. Beautiful, peaceful, luxurious bed, bedding and towels, warm and cosy, clean and comfortable. So lovely to see sheep , alpacas, geese and squirrels in the field surrounding the Hut and to overlook the countryside. Will is a lovely host making sure everything is ok and nothing was too much trouble for him. What an amazing achievement, building the Shepherds Hut to such a high specification with so many lovely details. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend a stay.

Top quality Shepherd's hut in a quiet rural location. The hut is fitted out to a high specification. Will the owner of the hut is a perfect host and really friendly. This shepherd's hut is one of a kind.

This is was my first experience in such a a location and we never regretted it. The reception and hospitality of the manager was top notch, the experience is still very fresh. Thank you so much team

Halkons Hut is an absolutely stunning little place to stay, wether youre just wanting to get out of the city or needing a relaxing couple of days out of sight. It was very clean, well equipped with small attention to detail. Not forgetting the beautiful farm life animals in the gated off area around the hut. The host is very accommodating and friendly, overall we enjoyed our little stay and would highly recommend it!
