Shepherds Hut - The Orchard Wagon
Perfect spot for a motorcycle toure
I loved Caroline's space. Me and my friend needed somewhere to stay where the motorcycles would be safe and had some privacy. The Orchard was ideal. The kitchen building has a gas oven, hob, utensils etc. The other building has seperate toilet, shower (which was great) and wash up area. The sleeping wagon was very clean and comfy and had a great bed.
The only downsides were a complete lack of electricity, so nowhere to charge sat nav, comes etc. And the bugs. But as we are fairly used to the great outdoors, and sprayed some repellant the sheds and wagon stayed bug free. As for charging up equipment, we are self sufficient so no issue for us.
There is a bit of traffic noise, but nothing much and all in all, I will be booking again next time I need somewhere to stay to explore the area and fabulous beaches like Covehithe. You are surrounded by AONB and historical sites.
It was the perfect stop on our tour, other than the fact it delayed us moving on for a day because we didn't want to leave.
