GoldenValley Shepherd's Hut

Pros: We were welcomed with a warm reception, ample parking on site and a simple informative guided tour of the shepherds hut and some local knowledge of road closures and helpful detours. The facilties were fantastic and everything needed to cook most meals. The views were amazing and the hut warm despite being near freezing outside. Lovely fresh spring water from the tap. Will definitely be keeping this place on my list to revisit.

Beautiful nature retreat with stunning views.

Pros: We’ve stayed here before and, just like last time, we really enjoyed the retreat to nature the hut provides. It’s extremely quiet, comfortable, clean, and the owner is very friendly and welcoming.

Cons: Nothing, everything was good. The plumbing issues from a couple of months ago have also been fixed!

The hut was perfect and comfy, area and views beautiful, 100% reccommend staying to anyone

Pros: The hut was perfect, the area beautiful and peaceful. Owner was lovely (sorry we were late)

Lovely Welsh borders get away

Pros: A well equipped hut in a beautiful location. There was everything you needed for a long weekend! Great walking close by and a short drive to Hay-on-Wye

Incredibly relaxing and very peaceful!

Pros: We had an amazing stay here! We’d assumed that the scenery images on the listing were just the surrounding area, and were positively surprised to find that it is the view from the cabin itself! The cabin is secluded on the farm and completely private, creating a completely quiet environment and calming place to stay!

Cons: The shower temperature regulator needed plumbing work, which meant that you couldn’t have a cold shower, but the owner was both aware and completely honest about it, so this is not a negative!

Very friendly and hospitable host. Great views, fun and very well appointed shepherds hut. Highly recommend

Pros: Perfect location; quiet and away from other people as it was the only shepherds hut on site

Pros: Our stay at the Shepherd’s Hut was incredible. It is so tranquil & loved the attention to detail in the design. The hut had everything you would need for a peaceful getaway including a large shower. It felt bright & spacious with stunning views over the hills. There is a great little pub down the road too, delicious food there. We were very lucky with the weather too but can imagine this place is cosy anytime and we will certainly be back! Thank you Angela for a wonderful stay, would highly recommend to anyone looking to escape & explore.

Lovely place for a peaceful and relaxing break.

Pros: The location was amazing, such a beautiful view. The shepherds hut was immaculate and well kitted out. I received a lovely welcome too.

A little gem!

Pros: The hut is immaculate, you could smell the freshness upon opening the doors. Equipped with everything you need, including garden furniture and bbq to enjoy the evenings taking in the views. Tucked away in a remote and peaceful location surrounded by nature and wildlife. We loved watching the animals! Angela was so lovely and recommended places to visit (the waterfalls are a must!) A gorgeous stay at the Shepherd’s Hut, would highly recommend.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Everything. Angela, our host, came out to meet us and show us around. She was super nice. The hut was immaculately clean. The bed was so comfortable that we struggled to get out of each morning. The bathroom was very spacious with a fab shower. The hut has a double hob. Microwave. Fridge. Angela left milk, tea, coffee, biscuits and bottled water for us. The hut is at the back of Dorstone village so it's very quiet. All you can hear are birds. No traffic. No neighbours. It's a 10 minute drive from Hay On Wye so perfect for eating out etc. There's a pub in the village. The Pandy that's about a 10 minute walk. Great place. Amazing food. Can't say enough good things about this place. I will be back.

Cons: Nothing. It was perfect.
