The property was clean and well maintained. The cottage is out of the way but only 6 miles from town. The owner was lovely.

Not so much "what I didn't like" as this section asks me to report, but things to be aware of. The sink in the bathroom is very small, and overhung by a shelf. If you are a wet shaver like me, a face flannel is useful due to the ergonomics. The shelf itself slopes forward a bit, and I found a full cup of tea or water on top of it tended to slide forward - there is a very handy shelf just above to toilet you can use instead. If you are a dry shaver or have an electric toothbrush to charge, I didn't spot a shaving socket, so an adaptor plug would be handy (I didn't burrow in every cupboard so there may be one hidden away) As expected with a Shepard's hut, there is not a lot of spare space and no cupboards for clothes, so perhaps not the place for posh frocks and DJs, as its easiest to keep stuff in your case. That said, there is a gap at the bottom of the bed that was the perfect width for my reasonably large suitcase, so I wasn't tripping over it. It was on the pricey side for what it was, but I was staying over the period of the National Eisteddfod, when all local accommodation seems to have gone up in price, so although I can't say the price I paid was good value for money, it was the cheapest I could find. I'd look at what others say for value for money, as I suspect my experience was out of the ordinary.

A very comfortable and well appointed Shepherd's Hut situated in the corner of a field a few yards for a sizable gravel parking area in front of the main house. The hut is shielded by a hedge and faces away from the house overlooking fields. There is a fenced off area in front of the hut with table and chairs, ideal for sitting out on a nice day. It feels nice and secluded. The hut itself is fairly small, as you would expect, but with double bed, plenty of electrical sockets (including integrated USB ports so no need to bring a charger), 2 comfy chairs, a kitchen area with kettle, microwave, plenty of cutlery, a decent sharp knife, and I think I spied a George Foreman grill in a cupboard. The shower is a good size, with decent water pressure (albeit not a power shower) and plenty of hot water, although I don't have long showers. Washing up liquid, soap, shower gel and shampoo were provided, along with a decent stock of tea bags and coffee, although not enough tea to feed my habit so you may be advised to bring extra if you like 3 cups a day. Milk was provided (local dairy in a glass bottle). Having been contacted by the owner before arrival, it was a particularly nice touch to have skimmed milk. The hut was open and unlocked when I arrived with the key having inside, but the very friendly host did come out to great me. I spotted a keysafe just outside the hut.

Beautiful location, welcoming thoughtful hosts. Lovely to have milk in the fridge and the log burner lit. Amazing little touches of having cling film, foil, and washing up liquid available. Like home from home

Only complaint was roads around cottage were full of potholes!! Hardly the hosts fault!

Kate was a lovely host, there to greet us when we arrived, not to forget Digger & Figgy. Made us feel very welcome. We were very surprised at the size of the accommodation, 2 large rooms and also given a sitting room, and a conservatory/diner, basically half of the cottage! Very, very rural quiet location. I would highly recommend this B & B to any friends or family or indeed would happily use again. Many, many thanks Kate, for contributing to make our weekend an unforgettable one!

Honestly nothing - we loved our stay.

It was a beautiful property and so homely! The rooms were a lovely size, clean, comfy and was in the perfect location from the wedding we were attending and only a short drive away from a little village with some lovely pubs. We loved the garden and all the sheep out in the field, was such a treat. The host was amazing and she ensured that our stay was perfect. I couldn’t recommend enough!!!

Would have preferred a shower rather than a bath

Relaxed atmosphere

We didn't always have cups or milk provided in the room, which could also have done with a couple of comfortable chairs.

The location was rather remote, but very beautiful, setting in a lovely garden. The host was very kind and friendly, and managed to put together a lovely evening meal for us at short notice. The beds were comfortable and the breakfast was excellent.

That we were only able to spend a couple of nights!

Idyllically situated in the Cheshire countryside. The property was immaculate with beautifully presented rooms and an attentive host who could not do enough to make our stay memorable and a place we would want to return to. For those who want a peaceful few days away to wind down in quiet surroundings with everything in place that you would want. This is the place.

Very hot in this recent weather, did not cool inside until late in the night, even with everything open. Could do with a external shaded area to sit under as sun field all day.

Beautiful hut, stunning quiet location, everything we needed for a relaxing break. Lovely host, on hand if we needed anything but allowed us to have our privacy. Safe secure garden for our dogs to run in.Loved the resident sheep and dog .

Nothing, it was great!

Lovely rural location. The shepherd's hut was adorable, set in a field, but with its own dedicated garden area with a table and bench. The shepherd's hut is private and absolutely lovely, just perfect for a couple! Clean and well equipped too. There is a great shower, and bathroom facilities, fridge, microwave, kettle and cutlery and crockery, and drink making items. A TV and little table and X2 chairs, but we ate outside as we had glorious weather. The bed is sumptuous, lovely and comfortable. We took our two dogs with us, and it was the perfect size for us all to stay in. The owner was lovely and we met Digger the family dog who is just adorable! The field does have some elderly sheep in, but our two puppers quickly adapted to them wandering around so it worked out perfectly! Wonderful stay and we will be back again! Good location too, we went to Chirk castle, into Whitchurch for fabulous fish and chips at Gardiners chippy and into Wrexham for a lovely meal at the fat boar!
