About the site

Set on a hill overlooking the sea and countryside, with easy access to all that North Cornwall has to offer, this is a beautiful spot for couples, families and anyone looking to get away. Home to two furnished and heated shepherd's huts, Penkenna and Cambeak, named after the nearby cliffs. Cambeck sleeps two with a raised double bed, boasting views through the french doors and a cosy feel with two comfortable velvet chairs and a Sky Glass TV too. Penkenna is great for families, sleeping four with a double bed and bunk beds above for children. When not exploring the outdoors there is also a Smart TV and DVD player to keep you occupied. Each shepherd's hut is a home away from home, beautifully furnished with an ensuite and a well-equipped kitchen including all the essential appliances and utensils to cook up a lovely meal. Enjoy a touch of alfresco dining as each hut has a private decking area with a dining set, firepit, BBQ and of course a hot tub! There's something for everyone at the farm with 18 acres to explore and a host of farm animals - meet the pigs, collect eggs from the chickens or even feed the alpacas! After your days of exploring, head back to your camp to enjoy the most dreamy sunsets. At night, look up to the skies for optimal stargazing. Dog-friendly.

A note from the site themselves...

You can enjoy a warm welcome from our seven cheeky Alpacas. From biggest to smallest, we have Maisie, Kate, Nell and Pippa, Lily, Coco and Luna. You will also get to see our lovely friendly flock of pedigree Zwartble sheep. Originally from the Netherlands, they are known for being friendly so be sure to say hello!

We usually have between 25 and 50 of this beautiful breed on the farm, and lambing season is around April. You may also spot a few of our chickens, who also produce lots of delicious eggs, with the alpacas nearby to keep a watch over them. We all hope to welcome you soon, Ross

We had a wonderful stay, the place was so pretty and cosy. Our puppy loved the space and we had some evenings in the hot tub stargazing. Will be booking again for the summer!

Absolute gem

Shepherd's Hut - Penkenna Shepherd's HutNov 2023

Incredible stay at Pencuke Farm, we arrived late in the evening where we were greeted by a well lit walkway down to the Shepherd's Hut - wonderfully set in a private area completely fenced in (perfect for our little dog) with ample room to roam and further fields if you wish. Feeding the alpacas was a real treat, as was the incredible view which encapsulated the wonderful countryside and sea view it was surrounded by. The hut was well supplied and had everything and more you would require for staying here, everything here felt very thought out and you can really feel the love put into it. Remember your golf clubs! The guys here have an amazingly setup golf simulator, never been on one before and Ross was kind enough to show me about before leaving me to it to have a play about - super fun and great for swing path/club head analysis. (There's also a decent array of clubs, should you not have any, that you can make use of). Incredible stay, can't wait to stay for longer next time.

Beautiful part of the world

Shepherd's Hut - Cambeak Shepherd's HutAug 2023

What a beautiful place! A really nice setup with the shepherd's hut, BBQ and enclosed paddock area so we could let our dog run around...as well as feeding the alpacas. Ross was great and we really enjoyed the fact the beach was a 10 min drive away as were towns like Bude. The shepherd's hut felt really well done and modern, really enjoyed staying in it. My only wish for the place is it would have been great if there was more of a farm shop onsite so we could cook up on the BBQ without driving to a nearby shop. It wasn't a problem at all, it would just take this place from a 5 star to 6!

Site's response

Thanks for the great review Daniel. Unfortunately, with only 5 properties, we just aren’t big enough to stock perishable goods in the farm shop. Were glad you enjoyed your stay though.
