Amazing place for a couple getaway! Amazing place, great views and most importantly, gives you everything you need to get away from it all and clear your mind! The hut was great, very cozy and comfortable yet big enough for everything you’ll need. The ponies are great fun and will come over and DEMAND some grass everytime they see you. Hot tub is in great condition and checked every morning for ph levels etc. Definitely will be coming back!

We had a fantastic time, the place was really clean and private overlooking a field with two Shetland ponies in. The hut had a full size cooker plus a sofa and the bed was extremely comfy and the hot tub was an added bonus!
We would definitely come again!

Thanks so much

Me and my partner stayed in the Shepherds Hut for bank holiday weekend. The location and views were stunning, no one around for miles and we felt so relaxed and secluded. The hut was clean and had everything we needed. The only change I would make would be more outdoor lights around the fire pit and hot tub! It got a little hard to see around 9ish. We had hot weather so got to use the outdoor swimming pool which felt like we were on holiday! We didn’t use the hot tub much as the weather was far too warm but it was clean and in the perfect location to enjoy in the evening when the sunsets on the opposite field. I would recommend this place to anyone for a romantic stay and we will definetly be back!

The Shepherds Hut is exactly as advertised. A perfect place to spend a few chilled days. The hut itself was amazing - everything you need and the hut tub was brilliant - so relaxing looking out over the countryside. There was also the luxury of an outdoor heated pool which we used and we also got in a quick game of tennis. We had a wonderful break and could quite easily had stayed longer. Thoroughly recommended.

We spent 4 nights in The Hut over a weekend in August, to 'get away from it all'.
It's in a great location mid way between Worcester and the Malvern Hills, so it's easy to explore Worcester, with all it has to offer, and also to get some great walking in. The Hut is tucked away in the trees on the edge of a field, so you are blissfully unaware of the world around you. There's a hot-tub under the trees that you can relax in, at the end of a day of walking, as the sun goes down looking out over the field. There's also a fire-pit, if you want to sit out after dark, and a barbecue. And the hosts (David and Louise) were lovely.
The Hut is immaculate. Very well built and all mod-cons. Perfect for 2 people. Nice and cosy. We wanted for nothing. There's a farm shop about 5 mins away, and there's a couple of pubs within walking distance. In fact, that's all we did one day - walk to the pub, have lunch, walk back! (the pub was The fox and Hounds - great food).
Would love to go back. Highly recommended

Had a lovely couple of days here. The hut was fabulous! Lovely and peaceful - only noise was from the owls, squirrels & other wildlife. Wanted a peaceful break away from everything and this place fits the bill! Would visit again and recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful few days away. Sitting in the hot tub or having a beer by the fire pit... couldn’t fault it. The owners are lovely - made us feel very welcome

Took my boyfriend for his birthday and he was over the moon with how lovely the hut was. It was extremely clean and tidy. The location was amazing and we loved joe peaceful the place was. The hosts couldn’t have been more welcoming or helpful and made sure we were fully satisfied throughout the whole stay

We enjoyed our stay in the Shepherds hut, it was a surprise to see how much was fitted in the seemingly small amount of space, upon entering the hut it was spacious and airy and very comfortable.
We enjoyed the location, being horse owners of many we particularly enjoyed the fact that there were some in the adjacent field, location was peaceful and wildlife abundant.
Hot tub was great, nice and private, all in all a great experience and would recommend to anyone wanting something different and pretty unique.

Really enjoyed my stay here. The food hamper was good. It was spotlessly clean. Bed was large and comfy. Shower was hot and easy to use. Hot tub was well maintained. We spotted badgers in the wooded bit around the field. Owners were friendly. They had a small elderly terrier twiglet who came to visit us on a couple of occasions as we sat outside.

We had the most perfect anniversary break. This was our second visit to the Shepherds hut and it didn't disappoint. The location is so tranquil and perfect. The hut had everting we needed. Including a really thoughtful welcome box and lovely surprises in the fridge. The hot tub is the icing on the cake. We will be back.

Beautiful location overlooking the horses paddock. Warm, cosy, all you require contents to the shepherds hut. Hot tub is really big. Plenty of walks without using the car. Useful local information provided. Double rocking chair outside to watch the sun go down. Plenty of quirky add on’s just dotted around, spend time to admire everything the place has to offer. A real gem definitely worth a visit at any time of the year.

It is a perfect place that matched what were looking for. Idyllically rural and very appropriately named "Hideaway". Malvern Hills are nearby, our favourite for nature and walks. Had a great lunch at a pub we took a walk to and for gardeners, a fantastic worm farm called Bubbles.

We stayed in the Shepherd's Hut Hideaway to celebrate a milestone anniversary. We were really welcomed and made to feel at home. The furnishings and facilities are excellent. We loved the hot tub and the outdoor pool. The Hut was really secluded and we were able to use the sun loungers to just relax. Locally, there are lots of nice pubs and things to do. The games room is amazing and full of retro toys and games like scalextric and pinball. We climbed the Malvern Hills which was only a short drive away. We also enjoyed the local walk around the Dingle. The hosts have thoughtfully put a folder together with helpful maps and guided walks. Just brilliant. We will return!

A wonderful stay. The hut is so well equipped (probably as good as my flat!), it's peaceful, private and secluded whilst also being easily accessible. The hot tub is such a treat and the owners have thought through things so well and added many thoughtful excellent touches. Relaxing, refreshing and restorative.

Enjoyed the peace and quiet of the shepards hut at hoppickers and its ideal for exploring the malvern hills/ Worcester.
Hot tub and pool within short walking distance and all the extras added by louise in the hut like fresh flowers, brownies etc put a nice touch on it. Never got to use the games room as weather was nice but loaded with lots of fun stuff?
Definitely recommend...

A beautiful place for a quiet getaway! It was so relaxing to stay here with everything going on recently. Perfect break from reality! I would definitely recommend and will hopefully come back to stay again and go on a more adventurous walk as we didn’t go too far! Very grateful to have stayed here.

What a wonderful and peaceful locationHoppickers is!
With the recent Covid Scare, how reassuring it is to find somewhere so peaceful, so clean and somewhere just to get alway from the hustle and bustle of every day life.
My husband and I had the most perfect stay, we will most certainly book again, but don’t take our word for it, give it ago, I’m certain you won’t be disappointed.

We had the most amazing weekend at Hoppickers an would certainly recommend to anyone looking for an escape from the business of normal life. Very private and romantic. Would recommend the walk to the local pub. Cannot thank Tom the manager enough for looking after us.

lovely experience, would do it again and recommend. It was absolutely beautiful and a great experience. You see horses in the morning as soon as you wake, very private too. The hot tub at night, very relaxing! Lovely views from the balcony, you can see the Malvern hills. Easy to get around. They provide you with so much already which was great.
We were provided with fresh bread, milk and eggs. Thank you so much for your kindness and allowing us to stay!

I would absolutely reccomend this place, my partner and I stayed for a long weekend and we couldn't have picked a more perfect place. The hideaway was beautiful and very cosy, the views and peace and quiet are to die for and the hot tub is the cherry on the top of the best weekend away I've had. 10/10 would definitely stay again :)

We stayed in the shepherds hut in September, To be honest i didn't really know what i was expecting, when i read the description and went ahead with the booking i thought in the back of my mind...hmm is it too good to be true..
We were looking for a 4 day break with a hot tub, but wanted a more rural and rustic feel. Arriving at the property we were welcomed by the landlady who gave us a tour and showed us to the hut.. it was just AMAZING. exactly what we were looking for and wayyy exceeded our expectations. The hut and all the facilities was spot on, the hot tub surrounded by trees and so much wildlife, and i have to mention the lights that came on at dusk in the trees, an awesome touch!! .. The pool and tennis area... i could go on but all in all we had a great stay and would highly recommend (and have done so).
Also the malvern hills are not too far away, so we had a little hike across country and up to the peaks of worcester beacon ect, worth a look, great views.
We will definatly return.
many thanks
kris =)

The shepherd’s hut was comfy and cosy with everything we needed for our stay. The view to the fields with the two horses plus the Malvern hill in the distance was lovely. Having our own deck, hot tub and fire pit outside was wonderful. In addition to which we had the shared swimming pool, games room and tennis court. Such fabulous facilities, location and hosts, couldn’t ask for more!
