A wonderful nights stay for my wife's birthday

We had the best stay for my wife's birthday. Lovely surroundings, peace and quiet. The Rumwold hut was beautifully presented and well kitted out with everything you'd need. Helping to feed the lambs was just wonderful. Will certainly look to go and stay again.

A wonderful shirt get away

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Rumwold shepherds hut. Perfect location for seeing the local area, we spent a day at Port Lympne and had a Sunday roast at The Woolpack Inn not far away. The communication and services have been brilliant, the little touches and aesthetic were wonderful. We are planning to come back with our little one and stay at the family hut in the spring.

An absolutely stunning get away!

From the moment of booking, the experience of interacting with Bloom Stays was lush. From the detailed preparation information to the welcome text, they have considered every part of your journey. The hut itself was stunning and had everything you could need for a comfy stay. Not to mention the stunning views and of course, all of the sheep. I would absolutely stay again and recommend to everyone.

Perfect country getaway!

We loved staying during lambing season and getting to feed and cuddle the little lambs. It was so peaceful and there is plenty to do around the area if you have a car such as the white cliffs of Dover walk, visit Folkestone, visit Canterbury, etc. Kristina was a very friendly and communicative host!

Relaxing!

This is a great place to get away to. Wide open skies, sheep in the field and hens around the door all make it a great place to unwind. The huts are well kitted out, with many details thought of.

Cosy staycation in Kent

We stayed for 1 night in the Rumwold hut at the beginning of May. It was the perfect setting for a quiet countryside retreat and we were able to relax amongst the sheep on the farm The hut was self catering with all the equipment we needed for cooking, ensuite bathroom, robes and a soft comfy bed. Outside we had a terrace and a BBQ with a dining area As it was lambing season, we were able to help feed the new lambs which was such a lovely experience We loved our time here and would definitely come back for another relaxing time away from London

Amazing, best birthday celebration ever!

We stayed at this amazing shepherds hut and had the perfect night away. The hut itself was so cosy, with all the amenities and cute little touches we could have asked for. The location was picturesque , relaxing and calming. The amazing night was topped off with the best birthday surprise of bottle feeding the baby lambs , which made it all the more exciting. The host was absolutely lovely and so kind. We will without a doubt be coming back!

Perfect retreat in picturesque settings

The owners have thought very carefully about how your visit can be enhanced. Everything from the surroundings, to the hut itself is just perfect! Well equipped, cosy and I cannot wait to return. I especially loved the easy app guide detailing information you may need from local pubs to hiking trails. Booking is a must!

Birthday/Anniversary Getaway

My wife and I wanted to find somewhere really nice and quiet away from our busy lives, to spend our anniversary and birthdays just after the 6 weeks holiday. On arrival, we found the parking and shepherds hut very easy to find. When we opened the doors to the hut we were both in amazement of what the inside looked like. It was better than the pictures. The bed and pillows were incredibly soft, the hut was warm and cozy, the outside area was perfect to sit and chat. The views were beautiful especially being able to lay in bed and watch the sun set perfectly. We purchased a breakfast box which was really tasty. It was the most getaway for us to recharge and celebrate. We will be booking again. :)

If like us you look for unique boutique accommodation that is quintessentially of its place this is for you. And don't worry, the sheep go to sleep too so you won't be kept awake by bleating!

Unique property in great location.

Rumwold is so characterful and a brilliant use of a small space. Comfortable bed, very well equipped with incredible views over the marsh. Beautiful sunsets. It is a great location for walking/cycling/great restaurants. Very peaceful at night with visits from the sheep and chickens during the day which was entertaining! A visit to the wool shop is essential.

Rumwold

We had a lovely short stay and wish it was longer. The huts are beautiful surroundings and within an easy driving distance of the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway! The hut was spotlessly clean with lovely welcoming touches which made us feel at home. It was fun to watch the farm animals doing their thing - very entertaining!

First experience in a shepherd's hut.

What an adventure!! Not only visiting more of East Sussex and Kent but staying in a Shepherd's Hut on a working farm. It was everything I expected and more. Total comfort with everything, almost, at arms length. Forget sleeping under canvas or in a caravan, this is the way to go!
