Dale Head Farm Shepherds Hut

Liked: Our host, Maggie, was amazing!! Very kind, welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The Shepherds Hut is beautiful, laid out in a great setting. The farm is lovely and the tea room too. We loved our stay and will be booking again. We highly recommend this stay if you’re looking for that rural, quiet getaway. We aren’t big walkers but the disused railway line to the pub was well worth the walk. You can drive too and there is parking just outside the hut.

Liked: Absolutely beautiful, and Maggie went above and beyond. It was really scenic, peaceful and relaxing. Surrounded by stunning views and nature. She was extremely hospitable and friendly. Everything was clean, well kept and homely and we would defiantly come again. Thank you so much for accommodating us, it was an absolute pleasure to stay at the shepherds hut. The sheep’s had also just also lambed which was a bonus, they were super cute. Maggie and her family were happy to show them to us. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and she went above and beyond on all counts. We had a wonderful weekend, thank you so much again and wish all the best for the future. Will definitely be recommending to all our family and friends

From the manager: It was a real pleasure. Thank you so much for coming. Lovely to meet you . Pleased you enjoyed time off for special 40th xx

Liked: Great place to stay, cosy hut with comfy double bed. Host was very friendly and helpful. Everything provided from towels to wood for the burner. Maggie even set the burner going before we arrived, so hut was already toasty. Clean and maintained bathroom facilities, very close to hut. Homecooked breakfast was great. Beautiful location, stunning views. Will likely be booking again.

Disliked: Wifi didn't quite reach the hut enough, but didn't really impact our stay. Heard a lot of dogs barking, but didn't go on for long?

Liked: Very nice host with great breakfast.

Disliked: Shower temperature varied from freezing to steaming hot. Hut was a little small for two people.

From the manager: Thank you . It’s a shame you didn’t mention the shower while here as I would happily have sorted this for you. Sometimes people alter the settings and it just needs rebooting. The shower is an excellent one . Size of hut is as described but I think you were unsure what a shepherds hut was really. Perhaps you don’t have them in America.

Liked: Was an amazing place, what a loving stay, was toasty warm and cosy. There is the most wonderful walks and views with wonderful wildlife around. The owners was really friendly and helpful,what amazing people to meet, made us feel so welcome. The breakfast was so amazing, was lovely and tasty, a great start for a lovely day. Thankyou so much for the lovely warm welcome and will look forward to rebooking in the future x

Disliked: There's no to dislike, a place well up my street.

Liked: A beautiful setting with an excellent host. This lovely shepherds hut was set in the north Yorkshire moors with a lovely cooked breakfast in with the price, which we ate in a tearoom .Which is opened later in the morning serving a wonderful selection of home baked treats cooked by the loveliest of hosts called Margaret . She made us feel very welcome and was full of lots of knowledge about the surrounding area and walks . Margaret was happy to speak with us but then also to leave us to enjoy our stay. We were in a lovely clean shepherds hut with everything we needed including a toilet and shower room next to it for our two night stay with local pubs nearby to enjoy a drink and a nice meal. We would highly recommend this place and can’t wait to return.

From the manager: Thank you absolutely a pleasure xx

Liked: The shepherds hut was cute and quirky which is what we were after. The catering facilities were minimal, the bathroom and toilet separate but that was all part of the charm. The scenery was breathtaking and the setting peaceful and relaxing. Maggie was a lovely host- approachable and friendly but also left us alone. The tea shop on the farm was fabulous

From the manager: Thank you it was lovely to meet you . Catering facilities are what are advertised. Microwave bbq and utility and you did get more free china than I expected!

Liked: Beautiful peaceful retreat. Maggie was a lovely host who made sure we had what we needed. Tasty breakfast in the morning too.

Disliked: Not being able to have an outdoor fire. No chiminea as per pics but a minor thing.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you pleasure. Even with the rain there is a red fire warning high alert so open fires are too dangerous. Not sure where the chiminea is in picture wonder if it’s a really old one will have a look for it and remove if applicable. We do state no open fires but bbq is fine !!
