“We both had a fantastic holiday.”

The Shepherd's Hut is ideally located to explore all of the local areas. Helen prepared our welcoming with warm words and the bottle of wine, loaf of bread, scones and jam helped us relax into our holiday from the first day. We would both highly recommend staying here and would also love to stay here again ourselves.

“Just had a really great stay in the shepherd's hut.”

Very clean and comfortable with all the facilities provided that you need. Lovely welcome from the owner, so sweet to have a selection of groceries and even a bottle of wine in the fridge when I arrived. If you want to stay somewhere quiet and isolated surrounded by nature then this is highly recommended.

John September 2024

“A warm, comfortable shepherd's hut in beautiful surroundings.”

Ideally located for walking and exploring the area, ( Hadrian's wall, Newcastle, Scotland ). We made use of the guided walk booklets and the welcome gift of scones, jam butter and wine was much appreciated.

Sarah August 2024

“A wonderful stay.”

The owner was friendly, flexible, and clear with us. The hut was quiet and so cosy. Lovely hot shower after our hike! The owner left us little essentials and treats like milk, salt, pepper, wine, bread, scones, butter and delicious jam which meant we didn't have to remember them! Plenty of wood and firelighters too and more offered if we wanted it. We were really comfortable and loved seeing the sunrise from one side of the bed!

Barry May 2024

“What a marvellous property.”

Complete peace and quiet with a chorus of birdsong. We arrived to a welcome from Mrs. Summerbell and,also, a generous welcome pack, including fresh bread, scones jam and wine. The facilities were very comfortable and well designed. The kingsize bed was very comfortable. We cannot recommend this place more highly and know that visitors return frequently. Once again, a really lovely location and Shepherd's Hut.

Nicola October 2023

“We had the most fantastic week at Peat Gate.”

The shepherd’s hut was cosy and so well-equipped and the owner was always helpful and friendly. A very comfy bed and gorgeous log burner so even though it was cold outside we were lovely and warm. We loved the welcome hamper too. The location was amazing too, really near the best bits of Hadrian’s Wall and not far from lovely Hexham, the Northumberland coast snd the Lakes. Absolutely perfect!

- Nicola, October 2023

Deborah May 2023

“A perfect shepherd’s hut in an idyllic location.”

The owner, Helen, has thought of everything to make guests’ stay very comfortable….from the very generous welcome hamper to a telescope for Dark Sky gazing. We cannot praise the accomodation and Helen’s kindness enough.

- Deborah, May 2023
Tracey May 2023

“A return visit to the Shepherds hut was just as lovely as our first visit!”

We returned to walk Hadrian's Wall this time around and with the hut being a short drive away it worked very well indeed. The lovely hut was as comfortable as remembered, spotlessly clean, well equipped and the welcome pack from Helen was very much appreciated. The spring birdlife on the moors was wonderful to behold and already I am missing the sound of the curlews and the diving and calling of the lapwings. Many thanks to Helen for a wonderful stay.

- Tracey, May 2023
Joanne October 2022

“Perfect getaway.”

We had everything we needed for a peaceful, chilled week away. The owner, Helen, was very welcoming and had left some provisions and wine. The bed was very comfortable so we had some long lie-ins. We would love to return for another stay.

- Joanne, October 2022
Tracey September 2022

“We had a wonderful stay at Peat Gate shepherds hut, I cannot speak highly enough of it.”

Warm, comfortable and very cosy indeed, Helen made sure that all your needs were catered for, with a lovely welcome pack of food and a bottle of wine waiting to meet you on your arrival. The setting was wonderful too, with quiet and beauty all around and amazing views, but only a short drive in to the village of Haltwhistle. The Tyne valley is a very prettyl place indeed and just a short drive to the World Heritage site of Hadrians Wall too. Thank you Helen for such a lovely stay

Mark September 2021

“What a great find, this little shepherds hut gave us a great base for exploring the area around Haltwhistle.”

We were greeted by the very friendly owner and shown the hut which is in a lovely, quiet position with great views; although small it is very clean and comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. There are some excellent links to the Pennine way and plenty of local foot paths, walking to Haltwhistle for a meal was pleasant through the woods following the river. Hadrian’s wall gave added interest and is a must to visit, just a short drive away.

- Mark, September 2021

Fiona July 2021

“We had a fabulous time at Peat Gate Shepherd's Hut.”

The location is absolutely stunning - the hut is set, on its own in a field which is left uncut so is a beautiful meadow. The views are stunning, with Hadrian's Wall in the distance and fabulous birds to watch. The facilities in the hut are all excellent quality. We were nervous about the double ring plug in hob, that it might be difficult to use, but it heated up very quickly and was as good as an ordinary hob to cook on. The bed, duvet and pillows were all extremely comfortable so we slept brilliantly. There is a good selection of games and walk books and even a telescope and stargazing literature to keep you entertained. Outside there are two wooden garden chairs to sit on and there are two fold out tables that you can eat at inside or out - which we pushed together to make one larger table. The host gave us a lovely welcome and put out lots of thoughtful items for the start of our stay. We had a relaxing and peaceful time away and would definitely recommend this property wholeheartedly. Thank you so much for our time away.

- Fiona, July 2021
Jackie June 2021

“This is our second week long stay at Peat Gate and we will be back.”

The shepherd's hut is very clean, well designed and equipped. It is sited on a very private woodland and meadow area and is ideal for wildlife watchers. We sat and watched deer, buzzards, foxes and amazing birdlife. The host Helen was very welcoming and had supplied us with organic bread, eggs butter , scones and jam an a bottle of wine which was a lovely surprise.

- Jackie, June 2021
Michael June 2021

“You might think that a shepherd's hut is not luxurious think again.”

This is well appointed accommodation with everything that you could wish for. Comfort, clean, fabulous views, warm, welcoming host and lovely starter pack.

- Michael, June 2021
Wendy May 2021

“This was a lovely unusual property to stay in, I loved the beautiful, peaceful surroundings it is set in.”

The host was so welcoming and helpful and the property was very well thought out to a high standard. It had everything I needed for a very comfortable and cosy week and I would recommend this property for anyone who wants to get away from it all. It is also perfect for solo travellers, I didn't feel vulnerable at any time during my stay. It is set about 4 miles from Hadrians Wall but it is very easy to access the various sites and the wall itself from the property by car. A walk in the surrounding countryside is also recommended with some great history to be discovered.

- Wendy, May 2021
Richard May 2021

“The peace and quiet of the area.”

- Richard, May 2021
James April 2021

“First post-pandemic holiday so really good to be in such a pleasing place.”

Everything neat and tidy, with some generous groceries left for us. Great geographic location with fields (and sheep) all around, but still within reach of some excellent places to visit. An efficient and snug little shepherd's hut to return to each day. Thoroughly recommended.

- James, April 2021
Irene September 2020

Claire September 2020

“We had the most relaxing, restorative and refreshing week in Helen's Shepherd's hut.”

It was scrupulously clean, with lovely hot shower. Helen went above and beyond in welcoming us to Northumberland and left a bottle of wine and basic food stuffs for us. We spent the week walking and hope to book again very soon.

- Claire, September 2020

- Carrie, July 2020
Jackie September 2019

“We had a wonderful welcome from the owners, who also left us bread, eggs, milk, wine, scones and butter.”

The shepherds hut was very private with amazing views all round. It had everything available that we needed (and more!) Even a telescope to view the incredible night sky. We will be going back next year.

- Jackie, September 2019
Susan September 2019

“It was a peaceful place to be and with lovely view.”

The hut was very cosy and well equipped and all you hear at night is the hooting of the owls in the trees nearby.

- Susan, September 2019
Ben August 2019

“A wonderful establishment.”

Peaceful location with an excellent view of trees, fields and hills (the only buildings you can see from the windows are miles away). The hut is clean, comfortable and well-equipped, and the owners are very friendly and welcoming. Listen to the local owls as you go to sleep!

- Ben, August 2019
Elizabeth July 2019

“Peaceful surroundings, super welcome pack including bread, scones, cheese, wine, eggs.”

Spotlessly clean and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The chairs were a little uncomfortable for long durations but the bed was super comfy. Really enjoyed our stay and would like to return later in the year to experience the dark sky’s.

- Elizabeth, July 2019
Richard June 2019

“The warm and friendly welcome from Mr and Mrs Summerbee, (plus the flowers, wine butter bread and eggs!”

) despite us being about an hour late in arriving. Peat Gate is an excellent place to explore the border between Northumberland and Durham especially Hadrian's Wall and Haltwhistle is a little town which has everything you need on a self catering holiday and a good public transport centre if you don't want to be driving all the time. We spent all three days walking and found people friendly and helpful plus excellent facilities such as The Sill, the new visitor centre near the Wall and also the Milecastle Inn, also close to the Wall, where we had a very good roast Sunday lunch at a bargain price! Returning to the Shepherds Hut each evening was magical becasue it is so quiet and peaceful that we abandoned all ideas of listening to the radio and just sat and listened to curlews, owls, oystercatchers and the cries of many other birds. The Hut is a real Tardis - much bigger inside than it looks at first sight and very well equipped with high quality equipment and kept very clean and tidy. Yes, it's small, but it's all there and the layout has been carefully thought through and works very well indeed. We will certainly go there again and would recommend anyone who doesn't know the area and its people to give it a try - we are sure you won't be disappointed.

- Richard, June 2019
Roland June 2019

“There is nothing what has not been said before.”

The location is simply breathtaking and the hosts are exemplary. If you look for peace and quietness this is the place to come. I'm sure we will be back.

Sally June 2019

“We had an amazing time at Peat Gate Shepherds Hut - would definately recommend to anyone wanting a lovely, peaceful break away!”

Small, cozy and the bed is very comfortable!! Helen and Colin are friendly and left us a super bottle of wine, fresh bread and scones - lovely! Oh, and setting your clock to get up and watch the sunrise is a must, great view with top of the door open lying in bed watching it! We will return again as loved it!

- Sally, June 2019
Sue May 2019

“The shepherd's hut was so charming on the website - but in reality, it's even lovelier.”

It's tiny, there's no denying that - but it's fully equipped, immaculately clean, well thought-out and the décor and general feel of the hut was homely and just right. The views from it, too, are superb - and it was a treat to sit in the doorstep in the early evenings with a glass of wine and a distant Hadrian's Wall, with the sheep and curlew for company … Thank you, too, to the owners for the goodies on arrival - the homemade bread and scones, the milk, eggs and bottle of wine. And for their hospitality and warmth throughout my stay, too. I couldn't have asked for a better break.

- Sue, May 2019
Andrea October 2018

“Peat Gate was so comfy and cosy, with all the facilities and more than expected in a hut!”

My Husband was a wee bit dubious at first, but Peat Gate was more luxurious than when we used to go camping! The treats Helen and Colin had put in the hut were absolutely fantastic and much appreciated! If you want an away from it all break, wonderful hosts and scenery, Peat Gate is just the place for you! There is so much to do in and around the hut. Lots of walks, Roman historical sites and a wee bit further afield we went to Cragside which was fantastic and worth the journey.

- Andrea, October 2018
Dale September 2018

“Hosts were absolutely lovely, and extremely accommodating, and the hutt was so cosy and beautifully finished!”

Paul April 2018

“Peat Gate Shepherd's Hut provided us with exactly what we were looking for, a quiet base from which to explore the area away from, well everything.”

Waking to the dawn chorus of more birds than you can mention, pheasant, lapwing, curlew just outside, deer down the valley and sheep for neighbours was just fabulous. The owners, just across the road if you should need anything, were lovely and full of local knowledge, there was a pack of information providing locations of nearby facilities and a multitude of ideas for discovering what the area has to offer and even wifi if you needed to investigate your options further!

“One of the most beautiful & natural places I have ever stayed in.”

Woke to see deer, pheasants & other life forms outside the shepherd hut. Honestly loved it. The owners were so generous leaving a loaf of organic bread & bottle of wine. Great to talk to them to too.

“This Shepherd's hut was a lovely place to stay.”

It was very comfortable and cosy. It kept warm nicely with the electric heater and there is also a wood burner. It was well stocked and the bed was very comfortable. Lots of plug sockets and the shower was easy to use. It was nice that there was some food provided for me when I arrived (basics like bread, cheese, eggs and milk). There is a lot to do in the area so I was never bored - Roman forts, National Trusts place and a trip to Carlisle. I would definitely recommend!

- Louise, October 2016
Nicola October 2016

“Everything about the holiday was great.”

Colin & Helen were very friendly and accommodating. The hut is beautifully decorated and it had everything we needed to make a nice meal. We can't wait to come back another time! In the mean time we'll be recommending to everyone. The Shepherds hut is perfect for a quiet and peaceful break with lovely scenery.

- Nicola, October 2016
Christine September 2016

“We were greeted when we arrived, and were very impressed with the shepherds hut.”

It was small (as expected), but very well provided with all we needed. The view was magnificent and the location perfect for visiting The Northumberland National Park, and other places of interest. One thing I would say, the information says the parking is 100yds from the hut which might put some people off, it is in fact much closer, about 20yds and very easily accessible. Overall we had a fabulous time and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone.

- Christine, September 2016
Christine August 2016

“What a delight!”

Staying in the Shepherd's Hut has been the most relaxing holiday we've ever had! We were looking for something different and found it here. The hut exceeded our expectations. The kitchen is equipped with everything you would ever need. The owners, Mr and Mrs Summerbell are a lovely, friendly couple, and they seem to have thought of everything-we arrived to find bread, scones, butter, jam, milk, eggs and a delicious bottle of wine!. The scenery is amazing! It was so quiet-just us and nature-we woke up one morning to find two deer in the field. Many thanks. We will be back!

- Christine, August 2016
Sarah August 2016

“Wow what can we say we had absolutely brilliant holiday in this charming shepherds hut.”

The facilities were excellent ,the hosts most welcoming and beautiful rural location bit close enough to towns and attractions such as Hadrian's Wall, Vindolanda, Housesteads and the Twice Brewed inn where the cod is exceptional. We had a most pleasant stay in this chain shepherds hut that even has a telescope to look at the dark skies of Northumberland. Highly recommended and wull most certainly be returning. Thank you Sarah and Karl

- Sarah, August 2016
David F August 2016

“Apart from the weather!”

!!! it was just the relaxing holiday we needed, Helen and Colin could not have been more helpful to us, only one very little niggle we couldn't get hot water from the sink taps or wash room taps, but just boiled the kettle and used that. Did not spoil the holiday, only the weather did that. But the vista's made up for that. Have been caravan users for years and there were things in the hut that we never have thought about taking with us in our van. So well done to Helen and Colin, and thank you.

- David F, August 2016
Melvyn Robin July 2016

The property

Haltwhistle 4 miles.

This charming, hand-made, timber-built shepherd's hut provides an unusual alternative holiday retreat in a peaceful, rural setting.

Nestling just above the valley of the South Tyne river, it’s location, set close to the owner’s home, affords stunning views towards the hills This shepherd’s hut provides cosy open plan studio accommodation with a king-size bed, two basket chairs and a little table.

There is a separate shower room which includes a modern shower, hand basin and WC.

The woodburning stove with integrated oven is perfect for those chilly evenings, and the small kitchen has a double hob and a fridge.

What could be nicer than rustling up some beans on toast, turning down the lights and gazing through the stable door to take in a sky brilliantly lit with stars?

To the south, the North Pennines rise up towards the town of Alston and beyond into an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The hut itself sits in its own enclosed field which has been planted with trees to suit this area of Northumberland, and whilst the meadow grass is kept cut close to the hut, the rest of the field is left to nature.

A small brook crosses the field, gently wending its way down to one of the tributaries of the Tyne.

The surrounding area offers excellent cycling, walking and fishing, easy access to Hadrian's Wall, Kielder forest and water, and the Heritage Coast making this the perfect spot for touring or getting back to nature and experiencing the pleasure of peace and solitude at it’s very best.
