What people say about their stay

‘We had a fantastic stay and were really impressed with the Shepherds Hut in every way. We feel really privileged to have been the first to stay at this one. If you are looking for nature inspired place to stay which is secluded then look no further.’

‘A perfect sunny weekend at Bee Hive. Our 1st experience of a Shepherds Hut we were not dissapointed, didnt want for anything. The big sky’s and wildlife made for a relaxing weekend, Kites, Buzzards and a Kestrel all seen amongst our list of 20 species of birds. Loved Fotheringhay village, so pretty with a whole lot of history.

Enjoyed every moment!’
