A superb, romantic shepherd''s hut in the pretty village of Foolow in the heart of the Peak District National Park.

A comfortable sofa is set in front of the warming wood burner and adjacent, a well-equipped kitchenette where you can cook up delicious meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The double bed is located at the other end of the cabin which has a Smart TV enabling you to watch it in bed while the dogs curl up on their beds on the floor.
