Reviews:
“The shepherd’s hut is so cute, gorgeous interior, cosy and comfortable, I feel totally replenished after an evening by a wood camp fire listening to the little river babble nearby. I slept like a baby and woke to wonderful views of wicklows rugged wildness which we enjoyed from the comfort of our bed sipping coffee. Can’t recommend enough – a perfect place to reflect and connect to nature and friends” by Kate Parke www.baressentials.ie
“We had an absolutely gorgeous stay in Greenan Farm’s Shepherds Huts, I can’t recommend them highly enough. Clean, cosy, and comfortable, with everything you’d need, including a fantastic indoor space for rainy days, and even a wood burning stove! It was so peaceful, with only the sounds of birds, the river, and an occasional hello from the sweetest Jacob sheep neighbours. Excellent directions, and lots to do on site to keep everyone happy. I particularly love the genuine commitment to rewilding the farm, this is so heartening to see and absolutely a bonus reason to visit. We will definitely be returning, and telling all our family and friends too. Thank you Greenan Farm! Ciara Brehony
