Lovely shepherd’s hut, had absolutely everything! The host set up happy birthday sign for my partner without even asking them which was a lovely surprise!We will definitely be back!
The Shepherds Hut was fantastic. Friday night was great. Romantic as we wanted. Very cosy!Saturday night was ruined somewhat. A couple of power cuts forced a move to a larger accommodation, although good, lost the tranquility of the Shepherds Hut. Neither of us slept very well, both finding the bed in the new accommodation most uncomfortable!We left Westerland @ 1000 am, both wanting to get on with the rest of our weekend.
Erg leuk verblijf in idyllisch landschap op een grote boerderij. Superaardige eigenaren en personeel!!! Veel wild op het landgoed. Aanrader voor hondeneigenaren.
