Company information
We are Kate and Tim, we have a crazy life, with a small holding. We have rare breed sheep, Cotswolds and Manx Loaghtans, we also have horses, chickens, turkeys and bees, and both work in our day jobs.
If you come in April, you might be lucky and see some lambs being born, in the height of summer you will often see us in our bee suits, checking the bees.
Skye is our working border collie, (who is actually quite useless :) ), and Willow is our rescue dog who sleeps all day, both are very friendly and gentle who you may well meet on your stay!
We love to travel, and have used many booking . com accommodations around the world, we love to welcome people to our Shepherds hut.
