We had a 1 night stay in Old George shepherds hut and it was perfect, the lakeside view was beautiful, all the facilities we needed inside, we had the log burner going in the evening and it was perfectly toasty! Breakfast at the cafe was fantastic and then my husband had a lovely relaxing day fishing at Betty’s Lake, the reception staff couldn’t be more helpful and polite, we will definitely book again!!

Shepherds hut very comfortable to stay in for 2 people. A little disappointing that its lakeside and you can't fish from it. The grounds are lovely, and well kept, its all very dog friendly. Short walk to the showers & toilets, which were sparkling clean. Close by to... Shepherds hut very comfortable to stay in for 2 people. A little disappointing that its lakeside and you can't fish from it. The grounds are lovely, and well kept, its all very dog friendly. Short walk to the showers & toilets, which were sparkling clean. Close by to get drinking water as well. All staff very friendly. Breakfast, tea, cake, beers in the restaurant, all well priced and great quality, especially the included breakfast. Visited the local Queens Head for dinner, also v good and a short walk in the evening. Fished the farm pond with my son, with good success. Though slightly concerning the poor state of many of the fishes mouths :( Highly recommend. We will be back.

Our shepherds hut was beautiful and toasty warm when we arrived. There's an electric fire and plenty of firewood for the wood burner. Comfy bed and crisp white linen. A glorious view over the lake from the verandah. We could park the car right beside the hut. The... Our shepherds hut was beautiful and toasty warm when we arrived. There's an electric fire and plenty of firewood for the wood burner. Comfy bed and crisp white linen. A glorious view over the lake from the verandah. We could park the car right beside the hut. The breakfast in the nearby cafe was delicious. The homemade veggie sausages were the best I've had in 35 years of being vegetarian! The wood burners and fairylights in the cafe create a cosy atmosphere. The staff were also fabulous across the site.

Loved the stay here. Reception and fishing bailiffs very friendly. Only thing I would change is that the restaurant needs to open past 4pm. Particularly over weekends and school holidays

The whole site, including the shower/toilet block was kept scrupulously clean. Facilities checked daily including Christmas & Boxing Days. Always wanted to try a Shepherds Hut. Bearing in mind the time of year, I felt that a higher tog rated duvet would have been welcome. It was a 10.5 tog rating. It didn’t feel welcoming, rather, thin & a little mean. Personally, I found the recorded bird song which played whilst I was using the shower block, a little unnerving! Kept expecting to be surrounded by hordes of birds…a la Hitchcock! I would whole heartedly recommend a visit to Sumner’s Pond.

The shepherds hut was very cosy and it was great that breakfast was included in the offer. The food was brilliant and staff very welcoming. The toilets were always very clean and facilities were good. We stayed at Sumners for a fishing trip so it was nice and accessible to get to the lakes. Area for improvements would be: to have an earlier check in time (we thought 4pm was quite late; especially as it’s getting dark by this time so wasn’t really able to enjoy the site/look around). We also thought it would be a nice gesture if the fishing cost was included in the stay cost. Other than that it was a pleasant stay and we will certainly return.

Never seen such a clean shower block

We had previously stayed here in our caravan, but as we no longer have it but had a weekend booked, decided to try a Shepherd's Hut. It was fantastic,so warm and cosy with an extremely comfortable bed. We were right on the lake and enjoyed a glass of wine on the decking. Bliss! Breakfast was included and we weren't disappointed. It was great. The shiwer block is beautifully clean and warm. We will be back.

Wonderful stay in a shepherds huts, everything was clean and comfortable. Reception staff were friendly and welcoming and we had a gorgeous breakfast in the cafe. Such a relaxing stay and will return soon.

Very rustic little hut perfect for a little get away with hubby. Had everything we needed. Comes with breakfast each day which was lovely. Although a few things had gone from the breakfast menu since last time. I’m not really int a full English I like pancakes and bacon but this wasn’t on the menu this time but wot we had was delicious. We booked and paid for fishing on the main lake that our hut was on only to be told that it was members only and had to pack up which was a little disappointing. But the bailiff aloud us to fish off of our decking but unfortunately this was quite small so we had to pack up. We booked the big safari tent whilst there so hopefully we will get some fishing in next time. Staff all lovely and very helpful
