We really could not recommend a stay at Nomad more. I was excited when I originally booked it; the photos of the shepherd’s hut amd hot tub were beautiful enough. The night before our stay, I reiceved a message from the owner who gave us so much information, we felt well prepared. The hit tub was so luxurious, on the second night, the owners came down again to set it up without request! The hut itself is well stocked and beautifully decorated. It is a luxurious experience!!

We had a lovely stay at Nomad. The setting is perfect for a rural getaway. We enjoyed the views and seeing the friendly cows walking past the windows. The hut itself is really cosy and with the log burner we were nice and warm. Our two doggos loved the enclosed garden and had fun exploring. Would 100% recommend a stay here. We also booked the on site massages with Elise which were great. We left feeling refreshed and relaxed. Thanks for a great stay!

I had the most relaxing time at Nomad, such a beautiful cosy shepherds hut with everything you need. Super comfy bed, lots of storage and nice little touches made all the difference, a little home from home:) The countryside is beautiful all you can hear are the sounds of cows, sheep and birds filling the air. The wood fired hot tub is spotless and stays warm for ages. Kate is a fab host, so helpful and attentive. I will definitely be back to this gem of a place!
