What Our Guests Say!
We had a wonderful weekend in the shepherds hut. The log burner made it warm and cosy and the attention to detail was second to none with everything you’d ever need for a great stay.
The outdoor space is beautiful with your own private bar b que hut and hot tub, this just rounded off a perfect stay.
Paul and Sharon were fantastic hosts and nothing was too much trouble. We have already booked for next year.

This really is a unique experience. We came here for three nights in early October for a bit of peace and quiet away from the metropolitan rush. We certainly got that. It is difficult to list everything good about this place in one review. It is a self sufficient shepherds hut located in a secluded meadow in the Lizard Peninsula. The affable proprietors have left no stone unturned to ensure you have a wonderful stay.
Comfortable four poster bed with premium bedding, log fuelled hot tub, barbecue hut, hammock, seating area, kitchen and superb power shower make this a perfect break whatever the weather. One word of warning is that because the hut is run off its own solar power it doesn’t cope with electrical items such as hairdryers or straighteners but you are advised about this. It is in a great location to explore all West Cornwall has to offer. In the current climate it is excellent value for money. We will most certainly be returning.

We just had a wonderful 5 night break at the Gillan Creek Retreat. The setting; off-grid, peaceful and relaxing, was just what we needed.
The hot tub is fab after a day exploring the nearby coves and costal paths, sitting out under the stars listening to the owls hoot. Paul and Sharon have put so much thought and love into the set up, it’s super comfy and cosy, it was nice to find proper wine glasses and everything you need in the kitchen to prep a simple hob top meal.
The warm welcome and selection of goodies on arrival, along with the fresh chicken eggs, the hot tub lit, and BBQ already set up for us on the first night, made for the perfect start! We would definitely recommend!

My girlfriend and I came to stay just between Christmas and New Year’s, we had the most amazing time.
The cabin looks and feels incredible, it was so warm and cozy through our cold rainy nights.
Paul and Sharon were amazing hosts, always being available to help with anything we may need. We hope to come back again very soon.

Shepherds hut was perfect for the 2 of us as it had everything we needed and more. The hut was in a lovely meadow and our privacy was respected.
Great hot tub and a wooden built steak room where you could cook your steak over the coals and been in the warmth of the fire whilst eating it.
Easy drive to the Lizard Penzance and all the coves nearby We will definitely be going back with our dog again and we recommend it anyone who comes down to Cornwall
