Charles 
“Really enjoyed our three nights in Willow.”
Cleverly designed, comfy bed, good privacy. Very nice hot tub and we enjoyed staring into the embers of the fire pit as night fell. A bit of a squeeze in the bathroom if you’re a large person. Great location for your Cornish base camp!

Tracey “The accommodation far exceeded my expectations due to the privacy and small little extra touches like blankets, bathrobes, fresh flowers on the table and plenty of supplies for the wood burning stove.”
The hot tub was fabulous and the setting and location was perfect. We had an amazing time
- Tracey, June 2025 -
Bryan “We had a lovely stay.”
Peaceful location and all the facilities we expected. Great way to get close to nature without actually having to be in a tent. Cosy but with all the important mod cons.
- Bryan, April 2025 -

First time we had stayed in a shepherds hut and wow, we wanted for nothing The hut was really well equipped and the bed really comfortable We'd never been in a hot tub before and now we're completely hooked, and found it so relaxing
- Rupert, July 2024 -
Jayne “We really enjoyed our stay at Willow.”
It was a lovely, peaceful location, which was a good base for visiting other nearby towns and villages. The shepherd's hut was very clean and well equipped, and although the property having its own hot tub wasn't one of the reasons we picked it, we did end up using it every evening, which was very relaxing, and finished off the day. The outdoor seating area was excellent for a drink in the evening, watching and listening to the wildlife. If we return to the area, we would definitely stay here again.
- Jayne, April 2024 -
Emily “The hut was gorgeous and we were so lucky with everything.”
The lodge was well supplied and we felt like we could relax and enjoy our stay in comfort.
- Emily, August 2023 -
Matthew “A great set up!”
Everything thought of and very private for a relaxing get away. Spotlessly clean and well presented, super comfy bed and great that all fuel (wood) is supplied. Hot tub under the stars a real highlight! Thanks for a great couple of days!
- Matthew, August 2023 -
Ailsa “We had a truly wonderful stay at Willow.”

David “We had a lovely stay here.”
We were late getting in as we drove from North Wales and got a little lost at the last few miles as we hadn't received any information from Sykes for our arrival. When we arrived we were shown to our Shepherd's hut and once we unloaded the car we jumped into the hot tub which was nice and warm for our arrival. The downside for us is we had to drive everywhere, we hadn't done a lot of research. You could walk to town which was a mile and a half but after driving the country lane to the hut we didn't fancy walking that in the dark, although you could get a taxi. We ran out of logs a lot as we were in the hot tub two or three times a day as the weather was pretty chilly at the end of May. Otherwise the hut was good but if it was raining you ended up lying on the bed to read but that is just part and parcel of this type of holiday. We would do this type of holiday again.
- David, May 2022 -
David “Super setting.”
Well presented with good facilities. Friendly owner provide great intro. Will be back.
- David, May 2022 -
Alex “100% amazing.”
Highly recommended. Very relaxing and peaceful.
- Alex, April 2022 -
Emily “A lovely stay!”
The bed wasn’t to our liking but that is personal preference, but we had everything we needed. Was quiet and relaxing, and the hot tub was lovely under the stars. Even though there are 3 huts it’s very secluded and separate. Only problem we had was heavy rain on arrival, and we had to park the other end of the field, so unloading was a pain and the field was very slippy. However I would stay here again as that was a minor issue!
- Emily, March 2022 -
Emily “The Shepards hut at Willow is our favourite place to go!”
It’s so quite and peaceful the perfect get away! This was our second time going and we will be booking to come again! See you soon Willow!
- Emily, March 2022 -
Christine “We had a lovely break in the willow, Peter met us when we arrived a lovely man, lovely shepherds hut comfy bed , everything you would need, very clean, shower amazing , only used hot tub twice due to going out for days, you have to stoke up the fire with logs underneath it , so funny though, loved it so much we’re coming back in the summer, so we can sit outside near the pond and lay on the sun beds !”
! Wadebridge has lots of shops , cafe and pubs, we never cooked in the hut just had breakfast we had a great time!
- Christine, October 2021 -
Kirsty “The host was lovely and met us on arrival.”
It was clean, quiet, secluded but within driving distance of the town. Absolutely fabulous, the only suggestion would be a dustpan and brush so that we could have swept the grass up before we left.
- Kirsty, September 2021 -
Gareth “It was everything I wanted and more.”
To watch the stars appear one bye one while siting in the hot lube was amazing. It was one of the most relaxing holidays I have ever had
- Gareth, September 2021 -
Linda “Would have been nice to have been aware that you cannot park your car close to the hut.”
There is a small car parking area at the bottom of the field where the huts are situated. You have to therefore carry luggage, bags or shopping etc. up and down an uneven grassy incline. Even worse when it is raining.
- Linda, July 2021 -
Michele “Beautiful, quiet location.”
Immaculate shepherds’ hut. Helpful and friendly owners. Near to fantastic beaches and the little town of Wadebridge. Absolutely lovely! Would highly recommend.
- Michele, July 2021 -
Helen “The wood fired hot tub had been pre lit, quality dressing gowns and towels were provided.”
The bed had a rest assurred matress the crockery was Denby... the peace and tranquility was incomparable, and the hosts went out of there way to ensure everything was fabulous...from meeting us at the gate, to directions into town and replenishing the firelighters. The accomadation has a luxurious feel and was beautifully presented... Someone has a real eye for interior design and it really enhances that feeling of pure bliss which is enhanced by thoughtful touches such as the flowers on the table and all you need for your first cuppa even a tiny bottle of milk in the fridge (that hides with the microwave in the cupboard under the belfast sink.) There is a two ring hob and outdoor barbeque, toaster and kettle plus everything you need to cook and wash up with. The shower temperature and force was fab and there is a heated towel rail which dries the towels and keeps the bathroom warm. The log burner is blissfull, it gets very warm very quickly and meant the shepherds hut was toasty and warm. Because of this we braved our private outdoor hot tub during a hail storm. In fact we sat in the hot tub everyday, at different times, watching the sunset seeing the stars come out..looking at the outstanding views and watching the wildlife. The owners are on a continual improvement mission and have now added shelters and screens around the hot tub area to enhance privacy without detracting from the feeling of space or interfering with views. Every second was a treat. It was perfect, blissful, heavenly a total antidote to stress and we can't wait to return.
- Helen, April 2021 -
Chloe “Brilliant holiday with everything we needed and more.”
Fantastic location with a beautiful landscape. People there also make staying wonderful. Thanks again!
- Chloe, April 2021 -
Oliver “We absolutely loved our holiday!”
The home was beautiful! Thanks for everything!
- Oliver, September 2020 -
Richard “This little shepherd hut was amazing!”
I saw on reviews before it wasnt to private, they have fixed that! The hut and location were GREAT! We will be going back for sure.. Sitting in the Hot tub watching the evening set is a great way to take the long tintagel walk out of your legs. There are some lovely cooking pans supplied but nonstick are definitely needed to cook! We bought a pan and left it behind, I hope it stays in use. Thank you so much for a great hoilday. Richard & Agi
- Richard, August 2020 -
Carol “Really beautiful place to stay, good central location to get around Cornwall.”
The owners are extremely welcoming and helpful. If you're the kind of person who likes glamping then this is the better option for you as it has all the facilities you need in one unit. Bring your boots to get to and from the hut as it's in a lovely field. (If it's wet) the hot tub is a massive bonus to rest after a long day out in Cornwall. There's sun loungers and a table and chairs outside on the grass so you can sit outside and enjoy the weather. In the evening you can warm up by the fire pit. Or have a BBQ on it! We will definitely stay here again. Suggestions: a few more kitchen utensils, scissors and a measuring jug for example. A big board over the sink to give you a bit more work top would help prepping dinners. Bed was really comfy and good night sleep. Overall stay was excellent and we will be booking here again soon.
- Carol, August 2020 -
Thomas “Really lovely place to stay, very private and simple.”
Extremely clean and very friendly hosts. A little bit of a drive to anywhere other than wadebridge rather than walking distance but nice and peaceful. There is limited storage for food and limited utensils but nothing that caused a problem!
- Thomas, August 2020 -
Spencer “We had a very warm welcome from the owners Pete and Estelle who couldnt do enough for us.”
We had absolutely anything we needed for our stay. Beautiful location and very private.
- Spencer, July 2020 -
Natasha “I absolutely loved this place.”
Me and my partner will be back. The hot tub was amazing, the bed was so comfy, the hot water bottles were so lovely, the shower was just right. The owners were amazing and so kind. I only have 2 things... 1, The hot tubs aren't as private as we would have liked. There are plants placed next to the it, but I feel a fence or something would have been better as we could see the other guest in the hut opposite and they could see us. 2, Some basic things like tea bags and coffee would have just made the stay. We weren't made aware that it didn't come with this so I had to send my partner out for tea bags. Obviously that isn't a big issue as there is a big Tesco not to far away but I feel it should either be mentioned that there is no facilities like this.
- Natasha, October 2019 -
Laura “We absolutely loved every moment of this holiday .”
The hut was beautifully clean and well kitted out . Stunning views and the hot tub is such a treat ! Pete and Estelle are so lovely and helpful but leave you to get on with your break . We are already looking forward to booking again next year.
- Laura, September 2019 -
Sian “We were generally happy with the shepherd hut Willow but it was advertised as totally private and we didn't see it as totally private.”
I would class totally private as other couples in other shepherd huts not be able to see us when in the hot tub, that requires further privacy created such as fencing or box hedging around the property if not just the hot tub as private. We didn't enjoy it as much as we expected but that was purely down shepherd huts are just not for us as a couple.
- Sian, September 2019 -
Alice “It was a lovely place to stay, and we had a great week away.”
The views were beautiful and the hot tub was amazing. The owners were helpful in showing us around and then we were left alone which was good. The only slight issue was that the three huts are all closer to each other and not as private as we thought they would be. There was also a caravan on the edge of the field and it did get a little noisy with children on one night.
- Alice, August 2019 -
Christopher “Such a peaceful holiday, really enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit for barbecues and star gazing.”
Bed is very comfortable and hut has everything you need. The hosts are lovely people, very friendly and there for you if you need anything, but they leave you alone to get on with your holiday. Highly recommended.
- Christopher, August 2019 -
Leslie “The shepards hut was in an idyllic location.”
The owners are attentive and very helpful and once they have shown you the hut you dont have to see them again.. The hot tub is real gem. I cant recomend it enough.
- Leslie, July 2019 -

Nicholas “We spent a lovely few days in Willow shepherds but.”
All reasonable amenities have been supplied. The owners were friendly and welcoming but then left us alone but were available on site if needed. Both the hut and tub had been pre-warmed prior to our arrival. Great views and very peaceful.
- Nicholas, December 2018 -

- Shelley, September 2018 -
Zoe “We had the most amazing holiday staying at Willow.”
The owners are extremely welcoming and helpful but also leave you to enjoy your stay. With only 3 shepherds huts at the site you don't felt over looked or rammed in. The site is set within a farm setting and so was very peaceful. We couldn't recommend the place more

Rebecca “We very much enjoyed our 3 night break in Willow.”
We arrived on a cold December evening and the owner had been thoughtful enough to start the wood burner in the hut and the hot tub, and had left two hot water bottles in the bed - we were so toasty! Perfect for a romantic and private getaway, would definitely return.
- Rebecca, December 2017 -
Alec “This was a brilliant holiday, in a superb location.”
The hosts were extremely accommodating and very friendly. The cottage itself is cosy and perfect to get away from the rush of the city. The hot tub was lovely and being able to stare at the stars in the night, and overlook the beautiful landscape in the day made the cottage very special. I would definitely book this cottage again and look forward to going back.
