A great get away from normal life

Wanted a complete break from everything after recent events in our life,, came here to get away from everything , relax and not give a care about anything in the world to recharge our battery’s ,, and we was t disappointed , very nice location, a very friendly cat that visits at points of the day and a hot tub that relieves stress ,, all in all a great way to unwind and nice place to stay

Peaceful getaway

a weekend away to the pheasant was a relaxing experience. Nights enjoying the hot tub , bbq and peaceful setting made by the fire and fairy lights! We ventured off to banham zoo and enjoyed a Sunday roast at the crown a few minutes drive down the road:) Although the hut is very close to the owners house, it really doesn’t matter as the hut is turned away from the house and facing a cute field ( it’s very private ) so the only time you really realise you are in their garden is when you’re driving in so don’t let this put you off!

Fantastic Stay

Julie and Peter were fantastic in ensuring a clean, tranquil and well-kept property. Great recommendations for things in the area and the peaceful setting was very well received. This is the perfect place to get away for some downtime. Highly recommend and will be returning soon.

THE PHEASANT SHEPHERDS HUT

Lovely little hideaway. Is located nearer to owners residence than anticipated. Also need to mention that the hot tub is located only 20ft or so from a farm track which, during my stay, was used a fair amount. The hot tub is partially screened but not enough that we didn't get the odd wave from passing tractors etc! The hut could have been cleaner, the windows and particularly the shower screen need attention. Not a fan of fleecy grey Teddy bedding either...please consider plain white cotton, I'm sure most people would prefer this. Having said all of that, we did relax, we were comfortable and also enjoyed a visit from a lovely cat. Just a few tweaks and it would be perfect!

A bit let down, description is not accurate

Although it was a nice get away we didn’t expect to be so close to the owners home. We could hear them in the garden in the morning and felt it wasn’t as private as we had hoped. The hot tub is a nice idea but it took a good few hours to get up to temperature. We was under the impression fire starters/fire wood for the hot tub was included in the price having paid extra for the use of it but later found a note asking to leave money is an honesty box. We was told it is a 10 min walk to the closest pub but it took about 7 mins by car so I find that hard to believe. As for cleanliness of the hut it was satisfactory but small details let it down. Lipstick stain on wine glass, dirty windows, alot of lime scale built up in the bathroom (I understand it can’t always be helped) grubby light switch. Towels and towel robes felt over washed, quite scratchy and had clearly lost the soft feel you would expect from ‘Egyptian cotton’. Complimentary Tea, coffee, sugar and milk would have been a nice touch but although stated there would be, there was only 2 tea bags and nothing else. Having said all this the owner we met was a lovely gentleman and very welcoming. The garden lights was beautiful in the evening while enjoying the views. Overall it was an OK stay but I wouldn’t rush back.

Disappointing aspects

Overall we had a lovely time and enjoyed our stay. There were just a few disappointing aspects - it seemed dusty and like it hadn’t finished being cleaned, the vent in the bathroom was thick with dust and the glass in the shower was smeared with dirty marks. We kept finding dead flies in corners, shelves etc. We also found there wasn’t enough fire starting product to maintain and keep re lighting the fire which was a shame. There was a can of empty bug spray which we really could have done with. The citronella candles outside we tried to light but were on their last legs and need to be replaced. The insects are relentless so these things would have helped. Most annoyingly I had emailed ahead a few days before to ensure the hot tub would be started up and ready for when we arrived, which it was not. I’m not sure what happened there but it seems the message hadn’t been passed on. We made the most of it and enjoyed our time.

Lovely chill out getaway

Very nice and helpful owner, beautifully clean and very well equipped. Very high standard of fittings and has everything you need. Large comfy bed, proper kitchen and lovely shower. Although it’s in the owner’s large garden, it’s totally private as they have positioned it well and screened everything off. Best advice is take enough food for your stay as there’s an adequate fridge and then stay on site the whole time and just relax and enjoy it.

Plesent pheasent

A very plesent stay with a lovely warm welcome. A lovely secluded spot at the bottom of a garden. All you would need for a short stay can be found at the pheasent. The one and only little thing I could say would make the pheasent any better, would be bug nets on the windows and fly door curtains/ strips. As quite a few flies as would be expected in the countryside. Ut for anyone like me who likes the outside but not the bugs, I like to have a safe haven away from them.

Prefect romantic getaway

Julie was an amazing host, meeting us on arrival to explain where everything was and we loved the flap Jack's she'd left to welcome us ❤️ The hut comes complete with everything you could need for the weekend. The bed is very comfortable,the shower has good water pressure and you are well stocked for toiletries! The guide book had all the info you could ask for and more and the laminated walking guides to explore the local area were a brilliant idea. As we'd called ahead the hot tub was ready on our arrival and what a treat it was! We topped the fire up later in the evening and the water was still warm enough for a quick morning dip the next day! There is more than enough wood for both the hot tub and the fire, both of which we enjoyed. The location is secluded and while you are in Julie's garden, we didn't see her after we'd been greeted, meaning we had a peaceful private weekend to relax and unwind. Thoroughly recommend!

Unclean

Sadly the property was not clean on arrival and the first morning was spent purchasing cleaning items so we could clean the property. We didn't feel it had been cleaned since the last occupants. The outdoor decking was very dirty and solar lights around the hot tub were not working. The hot tub was nice and eggs and milk were provided. Shower was decent and underfloor heating waz a nice feature. We felt if more care was taken to housekeeping (especially with Covid) and lighting had been working it would have been a better stay.

I booked this trip as a surprise for my partners 50th birthday and it was a perfect weekend. Julie was so accommodating and purchased balloons for me so that the hut could be decorated when we arrived. The hut is so lovely and has everything you need, the hot tub is great and very secluded. To top the weekend off we had perfect weather and my partner proposed to me! Would highly recommend & we hope to return again.

A tranquil escape from reality.

We chose The Pheasant as an escape out of London when lockdown eased up. It was perfect. The hut itself is so clean, warm and beautifully appointed. I loved all the little touches, especially the flamingo fairylights! Having the chimenea, hottub, and BBQ on the deck mean you don't actually want to leave. Though if you do, there's a cute little pub in the local village for variety. The owners are really friendly and welcoming but leave you alone (unless you need them.) I have already passed on the details to several friends as I've been raving about it so much.
