The crunch of gravel under tyres, then stillness — just birdsong and the distant bleat of sheep across stone-walled fields.
The Shepherd's Loft caters to tourers, with electric hook-ups for campervans and caravans looking for a straightforward stopover in proper countryside. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth a call if you're travelling with a four-legged friend. It's the kind of spot that works for couples after a quiet night away from caravan clubs, or anyone needing a base to explore the surrounding hills and valleys without the theme-park atmosphere of bigger parks.
Facilities are simple — pitch up, plug in, and make yourself at home. Campfires depend on conditions, so check when you arrive if you're planning to cook over flame. The vibe is understated and peaceful, more working farm than holiday resort. Anglers might appreciate that Hillview Trout Fishery sits a short drive away if you fancy an afternoon casting. Expect space, proper dark skies, and the sort of calm that only comes with genuine farmland all around.
Add a single landscape photo from your trip — pitch, view, sunset, anything but people. We’ll add it to the gallery after a quick moderation check.
