Shepherds Hut Glamping at Sumners Ponds Campsite

Excellent site and very comfy shepherds hut. would be so much better if there was was water and milk available as there is a fridge.

This place was absolutely beautiful I came here to get some head space on my own and stayed in bolderwood shepherds hut for 2 nights I could honestly not fault the place it's has stunning scenery and so many places to walk and explore the toilet and shower block was... This place was absolutely beautiful I came here to get some head space on my own and stayed in bolderwood shepherds hut for 2 nights I could honestly not fault the place it's has stunning scenery and so many places to walk and explore the toilet and shower block was kept clean at all times and the cafe was amazing the food was some of the best I've ever had especially the sausages and the staff at sumners pond were absolutely delightful and made me feel so welcome as soon as I arrived also the cafe staff were amazing too they catered to all of my needs and made me feel super welcome they are all absolute stars and Sharon is a delightful woman along with all the others the sight was very clean and very quiet and peaceful throughout the day and night the only down side there was really was that the cafe closed at 4pm but I totally understand why and also my only regret was not booking for longer thank you all at sumners pond...I WILL BE BACK! 🙂🙂

It was lovely as always, brilliant polite staff especialy in reception , we will definantley return to our newly named bolthole 🌈

Loved our entire stay clean peaceful fabulous breakfast Wish we had been advised of the lakes competition taking place , we booked in person not on line so we had no idea Disappointed mot to fish on the lakes

We had a brilliant weekend , my husband fishing and our dog and I chilling. We stayed in the Bathsheba shepherd hut which was clean and very nice.

We stayed in the Bathsheba shepherd hut which was clean and very nice. The only down side was the hut had no water or a toilet. The cafe was lovely and all the staff. It would have been nicer if they served an evening meal even though the pizza van came on site and other food vans during the week. We found our whole stay excellent and have just booked Old George for the end of September. Also dogs are welcome all over the site 😊🎣🐟🐕

Unfortunately our stay was cut short due to arriving on Monday unloading car and tripped on the chicken wire that was covering the steps and decking not very well stapled down in places.i badley injured my back so wasn't a good start I rested for Monday tried to fish Tuesday but couldn't carry on more than 2 hours due to the pain I was in. the water level was extremely low on all lakes and platforms approx 3ft above water level so found it difficult to land fish on match lake .I was disappointed any free swims on sumners pond were all reserved for members only as this is the lake I was intending to fish . the shower were always clean and tidy. the breakfast which was included in price with Sheppard hut bus nice ..was a bit disappointed that there was no evening menu on the cafe by the lake as last time we enjoyed it very much . the pain in my back wasn't getting any better so decided to leave Wednesday morning to come home see the doctor .

This was a lovely little campsite with some glamping huts, we stayed in the Bathsheba hut. The bed was comfy and the communal toilet/shower block was the best I have ever seen on a campsite, although the hot water in the showers was a bit hit and miss. The cafe by the lake served good breakfasts and coffee. My biggest annoyance was being asked to pay a £100 security charge, I don't remember reading about it in any of the emails/attachments that were sent at the time of booking or even when I called a month in advance to pay the balance. I understand the need for a security deposit but this isn't just an authorisation on the card, they take it and then refund it after the cleaning staff have confirmed the hut has been left in good condition - this amount should be an explicit term. Aside from that, some milk in the fridge was expected - everything else to make a cuppa was provided!

Staff was very friendly and the facilities was very clean especially the shower area

We visit Sumner ponds often. We've been camping, stayed in pods, and most recently stayed in a shepherds hut. I cannot fault this place at all, staff were very friendly and went out if their way to make sure we had the best holiday, especially Sharon and Debbie.... We visit Sumner ponds often. We've been camping, stayed in pods, and most recently stayed in a shepherds hut. I cannot fault this place at all, staff were very friendly and went out if their way to make sure we had the best holiday, especially Sharon and Debbie. Toilets and other facilities were kept clean, this location gives off a very safe atmosphere and the surrounding lakes and farm are just beautiful. This is just a great place to stay and has become at least an annual thing for me and my partner.

We stayed for a few days in one of the shepherd huts. Up to the usual high standard. The only down is that the cafe closed at 3.00pm. Yes lockdown had a pronounced effect but moving towards normality it would have been nice to have had the cafe open in the evening.
