Herdwick Shepherd Hut

Location was beautiful. Huts fairly close together so possibly not so peaceful in the summer but still only a handful of huts. Really is a beautiful location.

Close proximity to other huts but that’s a personal thing.

Private and it was surrounded by nature.

Blankets were too thin for my liking and the pillows were too hard. Side note try not to use all of your log wood before bed as it gets cold this time of year!👀 We struggled sleeping due to the temperature dropping🙈

Some towels would of been nice.

Everything you could ask for, perfect! Second visit this time and will Defo be back.

Nothing

Being welcomed to check in early when I was quite happy to wait until 3pm. It was much better equipped than the description led me to believe. Walking distance to a good pub with excellent food

The absolutely dire last minute arrival instructions. It is normal to receive some sort of arrival information between booking and travelling on the day. There was none until after leaving home on the day of arrival. Unsatisfactory. W3W is the norm for travel to remote locations. The text description was fine, but challenging for the lone traveler.

The beds were really comfy. The wood burner was fantastic. Shower good. Kitchen facilities great. Location good: Holne village, with good shop and pub close by.

Would have appreciated some hooks in bathroom and living space to hang things. The steps to upper bunk need to be deeper than an inch because painful getting up and down. It would be great to have a dimmer switch on main lighting: it was either full on bright or off.
