A brilliant get away - very cosy even in December.

Absolutely everything ! And will be returning x the shepherds hut was just so beautiful , the bed and quilt unbelievably comfortable, opened the hatch door to the most incredible views that money cannot buy.
Loved their pet dog Bria who often came to say hello , we took our own pumpkins and had them lit on the hut steps the perfect autumnal get away !
There was tea coffee and freshly baked biscuits in the cabin , we played cards and listened to the radio ! No WiFi in the van ( available at the out buildings ) but was glad of the break if were honest x
The breakfast in the mike I b the lovely lady brought over to us to eat on the seating area and it was just amazing ! I cannot thank them enough doe one of the most pleasurable stays I’ve ever had x

Absolutely nothing !

We loved our stay in the Shepherds hut at Dale Head Farm. Maggie and her family are superb hosts. The breakfasts lasted us all day! The views from the hut are breathtaking - even in bad weather. The woodburner made the place so toasty and was easy and safe to use. Maggie seems to have thought about everything in this fab little place.

I would have preferred the top bunk not to be there on the bed. It was a bit claustrophobic, but I wouldn't let it put me off staying here again.

The shepherd's hut was a little idyll for us. It is very quietly situated and the views all around are beautiful. The hut is comfortable, cosy and very well equipped. We liked the fact that it was part of the farm, not part of a campsite. We were made to feel very welcome and we enjoyed fabulous breakfasts and tea and cake in the tea room/garden. We were blessed with good weather and made the most of the nearby footpaths & cycle rides. If you want to escape from the madness - this is perfect!

That we couldn't stay longer.

This was such a lovely stay. Maggie the host was exceptional, and had the log-burner already lit and awaiting our arrival meaning the place was really warm and cosy as soon as we opened the door. Little shortbreads (which were homemade and delicious) were left as a treat inside.

The hut is filled with everything you could need, and we wish we had booked an extra night rather than using it as a stopover mid-trip, so we could have enjoyed one of the walks nearby and her famous cakes!

Location is beautiful, quiet and peaceful and night and the breakfast is delicious. You can opt for what you want!

There was no mobile signal, and no wifi in the hut itself. Not a problem for us, we enjoyed switching off for the night, but perhaps a consideration if contact is needed.

Already looking forward to coming back in Winter for a cosy stay.

Very pleasant and attentive hostess. Beautiful surroundings. Great full English breakfasts. Well equipped and picturesque shepherds hut. Evenings under the stars. Good location to explore the North York Moors, day trips to the coast etc. Friendly dog. Cake, really good cake.

Nothing really, shower didn't have very good pressure but told the owner and the plumber was there as we left (stayed two nights).

Liked everything about it

Just returned from an amazing trip with my young son to Dale Head Farms Shepard Hut.
It was the first time we've stayed anywhere so quiet and I was worried how he would cope without the usual distractions. I needn't of worried. This place is superb and the breakfasts were amazing. I opted for porridge the second morning and if the fryup was the nicest ever, the porridge was just as good. I didnt think porridge could taste as nice and i'd recommend on that alone!
Nothing was to much trouble and Maggie (and her daughter) was there to give us any advice and ideas of where i could take my 6 year old son who wouldn't have been up for any gruelling walks.
Something I also want to mention is that without realising I had booked 2 adults and not an adult and a child. I was none the wiser but Maggie refunded me this money when she had no need to do so and I felt this was extremely honest, thank you!
My son was upset to leave having grown so attached to the hut, the farm...and especially Maggies dog who was so gentle around him. We had to stay an extra half hour in the morning so he could have a slice of wonderful lemon drizzle cake from the cafe before he had to say goodbye : (.
Without doubt we will be back, or I'll never hear the end of it from my son : )

Peaceful location. Stunning scenery. Maggie the owner was very hospitable and couldn't do enough to help....her cakes are fab too! Everything you need for camping is there too.

Will definitely be back.
