Glamping on the Hill

Amazing host,good quality beding yurts are well equipped amazing views and nighttime stars are out of this world amazing amazing amazing what more can I say,the hill is a challenge but worth it. Dusk and Dawn chorus is beautiful even heard two owls speaking to each other.

Wow what an absolutely lovely stay we have just had. We had one night in the Pippin Shepherds Hut and it was beautiful. Spotlessly clean, the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in, lovely ensuite and kitchenette with everything you need. The garden was lovely we made use of the bbq and the hot tub. This took about 4 hours to fully heat up but was such a nice added bonus for the lovely summer evening. If being a little picky it would had been nice to maybe had some bamboo screening around the hot tub as the yurts on the hill look directly down into the garden and people walking past but apart from that such a relaxing time was had by us both. Cannot wait to stay here again 😊😊

I’ve now stayed twice at Vobster Inn’s shepherd’s huts, in December 2021 and again a year later. There was an administrative mix-up when I first arrived, and the superb way Peta and Raf handled it should be used as a case study for hospitality schools everywhere. I was delighted with the cosy shepherd’s hut Pippin, its quirky garden and relaxing hot tub. Here is a place where you can enjoy true privacy in the countryside, while still having the hosts available to help if needed. I also enjoyed one dinner in the main inn in December 2021, which was delicious. In summary, this place has a hold on me and I cannot wait to return. I would recommend it most highly.

Wonderful 2 night stay in a magical Yurt called Buttercup. Everything sparkly clean, cosy and comfortable. Enjoyed lovely trip to nearby Wells Cathedral and Bishops Palace then back to enjoy the relaxing surroundings and an excellent BBQ. Peti and Raf are perfect hosts - we’ll be back!

I’ve always wanted to stay in a yurt and this not only matched my expectations but exceeded them. We stayed for one night as it was our anniversary and I surprised my boyfriend. I wish we could have stayed longer! On arrival the yurt was warm, clean and the fairy lights were on which made it magical to walk in to. It was like going in to the TARDIS as there was so much space. The yurt was well equipped with everything we needed and the toilet and shower were very clean. There was a heater and a log burner but we didn’t need the log burner. We cooked on the fire pit and made breakfast the next day. It was great that they accepted dogs as a lot dont but our dogs loved it. The owner was very friendly and helpful and gave us extra coal for the BBQ. There is a steep walk to the yurt but you have trolleys you can use and the view was amazing and so peaceful. I can’t recommend this enough and we’ll definitely be going back.

Lovely shepherds huts on the hill. Nicely decorated, comfy and with a multi fuel stove. Shower, kitchenette and other facilities worked well and were well presented. We ate at the pub in the evening and ordered breakfast the following morning. Good to support independent rural inns.

Absolutely loved every second spent in the Shepard's hut and the grounds. The hut is cosy & warm. Got everything you need, from kitchen to bathroom. Hot tub is amazing. Took me 7hrs to heat it up on the first night but it was so worth it and second night only 2 hrs of burning the logs. Highly recommended this place. Would love to return
