Excellent hideaway in a great location

The shepherds hut is warm & cosy with everything you need for a few nights stay. It is in a great location between Hope & Castleton with perfect access to walk around Hope Valley. The views are stunning! Maeve came out to greet us & then left us to enjoy our weekend, even messaging to say we could leave whenever we liked instead of the stated check-out time. Only comment is the listing states that there is a hot tub, but we clarified that there wasn't with the host before confirming the booking.
