The Shepherds Hut

A cosy, self contained shepherd hut, in the natural kept field. Helpful, friendly owners. A close proximity to the areas we wanted to visit. Great villages and restaurants near by. A beautiful part of the country.

Excellent for a quiet getaway. For more details see review for previous dates.

Wonderful 12 days at Blue Tile House. Nick, host, could not have been kinder or more helpful. Pumpkin (19mnth old collie) fell in love with Percy the lurcher and behaved impeccably with the free roaming chickens (less so the Guinea fowl). Wonderful relaxed atmosphere, great for getting away from it all but equally an ideal location for exploring the best of North Norfolk - Blakeney well worth a visit as are Binham Abbey and Bayfield Wild Flower gardens. Facilities are a combination of basic (it is hut in the middle of a beautiful meadow) and thoughtful luxury extras: some cutlery, kettle, coffee machine and rather lovey coffee pods, reasonably sized fridge, superb bed and bedding, lovely powerful shower, toilet a short stroll from the hut. Kindling and logs provided for a very efficient fire pit arrangement which, with the frying pan, offers great opportunities for outdoor eating on warm evenings. While I would love to keep this place as a secret, I find I must recommend it to anyone wanting something a bit different - it is pure joy!

Might have been helpful to have a tongs and/or a poker for the fire pit. Water tap is nearby; a water carrier would have been useful.

Location in the field brilliant. At night wonderful views of stars. Hut cosy

We should have been told in booking information that toilets were about 200 metres away next to the house. Also that to heat the hut you need to light a log fire and keep it going. (Fortunately we did not need it) Finally the owners made no arrangements to meet, greet or inform us about the property.
