Pine Croft Shepherd's Huts
View prices & book
- Adults-only site on a family-run North Yorkshire sheep farm
- A mile from Snainton village; Scarborough seafront 20 minutes' drive
- Comfortable and self-contained accommodation with spacious decking
Longing to snuggle up by your woodburning stove and gaze out over farm fields? Pine Croft Shepherd Huts, a small adults-only site a mile from Snainton village centre with far-reaching rural views, is a prime pick for peeping out over the North Yorkshire countryside. It's also only a 10-minute drive from Thornton Dale on the edge of the North York Moors National Park and 20 minutes from the coast.
Your hut comes equipped with plenty of well-thought-through features that'll likely keep you happily ensconced in it for many a cosy hour, including a woodburning stove, a comfy double bed and ample storage space. A sizeable kitchen and food prep area is equipped with a microwave, stove and fridge. Outside, there's wooden decking and a secluded wooded area where you can relax and light up fires after dark.
Wandering around the farm, you'll likely come across some of the rare breed sheep that the owners keep in the adjacent paddock. From the site gates, it's an easy 20- to 30-minute stroll into Snainton village, where two pubs, a small shop, a butchers and a fish and chip shop may well prove handy for stocking up on supplies or eating out.
Snainton is also on a bus route that runs into Scarborough in about half an hour if you'd rather leave the car back at base. (Driving down the A170 takes even less time, setting you back a mere 20 minutes or so). Dalby Forest, a well-liked woodland on the southern flank of the North York Moors National Park with extensive walking and mountain biking opportunities, is also a 20-minute drive away.

Local attractions
Scarper down to Scarborough (20 minutes' drive) for top-rated visits to its hilltop castle, landscaped Peasholm Park and Shuttleworth Gardens or simply classic bucket and spade days on the beach. Scarborough Art Gallery should keep creative types stimulated, while history-hunters should find the Rotunda Museum and Scarborough Maritime Heritage Centre more than satisfactory.
Filey (30 minutes), another seafront spot where there are five miles of sandy shores, is only slightly further away; it also has the added attraction of being home to Filey Bird Garden and Animal Park, Filey Brigg Country Park and Filey Golf Club. Inland, Pickering (20 minutes) also has much to recommend itself to those passing through, including Pickering Castle and The North Yorkshire Moors Railway.
Once you've broken ground on Dalby Forest (20 minutes), check out the rest of the North Riding Forest Park or get up into the treetops for an aerial perspective at Go Ape (also 20 minutes). Dalby Activity Centre (15 minutes) has more adventurous options, including paintballing, archery and – if you're looking to test out your other half's scouting or guiding skills – orienteering.
