Beautiful, cosy shepherds hut with gorgeous views and a friendly welcome from the owner.Inside the hut, the comfy bed had fresh, crisp, white linen. The underfloor heating was good, and kept the hut at a constant temperature. There is a log burner for extra heat, which we lit, and it didnt take long for the heat to make it feel extra cosy.

Very warm and cosy cabin with soft fairy lights in the garden so it was nice and cosy in the dark! The hot tub was lovely and we were supplied with flip flops and robes for getting to and from the hot-tub which was lovely considering it was chilly outside! :) very beautiful views and lovely walks!

This was our first experience in a shepherds hut and it didn’t disappoint. All you need for a peaceful break, with the use of a hot tub, fire pit and BBQ it was perfect. We had a lovely visit from the owners dog (Tara) at the BBQ time which was nice, we thought she might of wanted more than pat and a stroke. The light around the garden in front of the hut was a nice touch especially when the evening comes.

Great just great

Byemills is a great place to stay.we had such a restful and pleasant stay. Our hosts were brilliant and when there was a brief region wide power cut they were straight to us to ensure we had everything we needed. Easy walking distance to local pubs and a great historical stone circle at Stanton Drew. We loved our stay and made all the more special with it being Christmas.

peaceful

just had a lovely relaxing peaceful 2 night stay and its exactly as advertised, short walk through the fields towards the viaduct is friendly pub with good food, Bath just a short 30 min drive away and the Hot tub was amazing especially at night in the light up garden. Only word of warning is the bed is not suited to tall people, I'm 6ft 1 and had to sleep at angle as the bed is wall to wall and my legs were too long. I'd definitely recommend.

Sanctuary in our chaos

My husband and I stayed in this idyllic Shephards hut whilst on a trip to look after our Grandchild during the day time . After running around after a 4 year old all day , it was a welcome sanctuary to come home to this beautiful dwelling with its lovely fairy lights and delightfully warm hot tub to recharge our worn out bodies for the next days shenanigans . Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer and have a few days for ourselves to explore the beautiful surroundings . We will definitely be back .

Excellent cosy farmhouse hut

It wasn't as private as advertised as you are on the edge of the owners property/driveway. Somethings advertised either didn't work or weren't supplied. Check in/out times are very early and late bearing in mind the nightly rate. However it is a very warm and comfortable hut but weather dependant as no outside cover which would have enabled us to sit outside in inclement weather.

Lovely and relaxing

Loved our short break, just what we needed, enjoyed the hot tub and barbecue on the fire pit. Only a couple of little things I would suggest, the stairs leading up to hut could do with rails as I have short legs and I tripped once while taking bags into the hut. Luckily only squished the bread in the bag. Otherwise very enjoyable, thanks. Terry and Angela.

Amazing Birthday Getaway

We have just come back from the most amazing couple nights away in this most amazing shepherds hut. Can not fault the hut or the facilities inside, all was amazing. Hot tub in the evening then in the hut to warm back up by a real fire 😍. Location was great for trips out to Bath and a lovely day in Cheddar Gorge. Anne was Brill and told us all we needed to know including a great place to eat 'the Druids' where we had the best stake n ale pie ever 😋. 💗

Best get a way to recharge!

Me and my partner booked the shepherds hut for his 30th birthday celebrations. (towards the end of September). It was such a charming location the host Anne, was very welcoming. We’re already looking to book again. There are loads of local pubs and walks detailed in the welcoming pack inside the hut. We also drove into Bath and visited the Roman Bath’s and on another day visited the Wild Life Project in Bristol. The sights are so beautiful, during the day you can even spot cows in the field opposite. We were lucky enough to be briefly visited by the host’s dog, who was very cute. We spent the evenings listening to the radio, while enjoying the fire pit covered in the moon light. It was so lovely having the hot tub at our doorstep and made even nicer being surrounded by fairy lights. Would definitely recommend. Can’t wait to come back. Emma & Brad

Our stay at Bye mills shepherd hut

We stayed at Bye Mills Farm in the shepherd hut for 4 nights and 5 days and wow, what a lovely time we had. The hut was more than well equipped for our time away and even if we ran out of anything, Anne is only a message away (which i would like to add was very quick to reply so that was excellent for communication). The hut feels so welcoming and cozy, and with the addition of the hot tub too it was lovely to just chill out. A bonus too if you want to go in the hot tub in the evening the surrounding hedges have fairy lights and lighting around that makes the outside look and feel very special. Would like to add too the bed and bedding in the hut was so comfortable and made chilling in the evenings even better. The views in the morning when waking up were incredible with seeing the mist roll over the hills and the livestock grazing around. We found that it was easily located with only around 30min drive (traffic dependant) from either centre of Bath or Bristol, it made ease for days out too. There are plenty of pubs local to bye mills which are only a short 5-10 min drive away, or if walking will be longer as some of the roads close by do not have pavements or walking room. Thank you so much for having us and I 100% recommend to anyone wanting to get away and relax as you do just that and the surroundings add to the feel too. Thank you Lewis and Chloe
