I just wanted to say thank you for our stay at Little silver leaf. Unfortunately we felt we had to give a slightly mixed bit of feedback here. We cannot fault the location and there is lots to like. However we did feel very let down with the lack of a hot tub for over half of our stay and although we did use the owl hot tub once, we did find the little walk off putting. I understand the issues you had obtaining a part but we felt this is something that could of been mentioned before our arrival and we would definitely of changed the date. Having spent over £400 to stay here this was one of, if not the main feature so for us it was not value for money. We also felt the hot water did not last very long at all in the shower. After 1 and a half showers, unfortunately it did not stay warm long enough for my partner to wash the conditioner out of her hair. Slightly annoying. Finally, for someone who doesn't drink caffein but enjoys a coffee. I was surprised to see that there were no decaf coffee pods to use in your advertised coffee machine. Again, this is really disappointing. We do feel really disappointed as we are local people who would make use of your facilties again. However we do feel let down. I apologise to come across negative but I'm sure you take feedback seriously and are always looking to improve. Kind Regards Alex

WOW !!! !!!! The cottage was far better than we had anticipated, it went above and miles beyond our expectations. From the amazing little cottage which provided everything you would need, to the hot tub over looking the amazing scenery. The host were friendly and welcoming and were there if every you needed anything. Plus you have the added bonus of driving a golf kart for the duration of your stay around the place. We will defo be back in the near future.

Absolutely amazing holiday! Little Silver Leaf was immaculate, well equipped and modern. The bed was really comfortable, the shower was lovely and storage space was superb! Hot tub was brand new with amazing views over the valley. The 3 huts have been positioned really well to avoid overlooking each other and it was a really idyllic, secluded and quiet retreat. Perfect holiday and would 100% recommend.

Brilliant experience ! set in a beautiful setting, clean and perfectly equipped with the perfect hosts ! loved the hut, loved jacuzzi and enjoyed the golf cart ! A quirky high end experience can't wait to get back !

What a lovely place, the views over the valley below with the river, train track, cows and sheep is just perfect.. You can hear the birds song including an owl hooting while soaking away in the hot tub after a busy day out. The shepherd's hut has underfloor heating so is as warm as you like and if you want more heat then light the wood burner if you can. The golf buggies to take you the short distance from the parking area to the hut is a joy, to be honest it's not a long walk but so much easier to drive. The hosts were very welcoming and also had a welcome basket of goodies which was an unexpected delight. Booking here would not disappoint.
