4/10
I expect a rustic ‘off-grid’ hut to be reasonably basic but to have a fairly dirty interior I was less enthused about. The sofa with bits of old food on it. Looked like it hadn’t been cleaned for a long time. Dirty and dusty floors. Dirty grubby windows. Dead bugs in the window frames. Surfaces covered in grime around the sink area for example. Old food left on the sink drainer (bits of broccoli - not ours!). Even the kettle for the stove top was missing its ‘whistle’. Cutlery drawer grubby etc.
The wet room a little tired, needs refreshing. Poor lighting. No mirror. No extraction for the steam meant it stayed pretty wet in there all day. Using the toilet after a shower meant you have damp and wet clothes that easily touch the dirty floor. The drain smelled too.
No decent supply of hand soap provided. Empty bottles of hand soap, yes. But to use - barely any.
No milk provided in the gas fridge. But some old tea bags and sugar plus sachets of coffee stuffed into a jar found in a cupboard for your welcome to the property.
The bedroom area: no storage options for clothing. Some lighting not working either. Pillows a mix of lumpy and squishy.
“The Hut” needs some care and attention to make it feel special. It didn’t feel special for us unfortunately. We have stayed in much better and more comfortable Shepherds Huts.
It could be really special but it just isn’t. We booked for 2-nights but only stayed 1-night as it was so disappointing.
