  • Luxury shepherds’ huts in a quiet corner of a working farm
  • A 10-minute drive to Thirsk and 15 to North York Moors National Park
  • Child-free, dog-friendly site with a two-acre fishing lake
Mosey over to Morndyke, just outside Thirsk (10 minutes’ drive) in the stunning Yorkshire countryside, for a break at an award-winning glamping site. A stellar spot for a bit of silence, this park’s kid-free policy means no boisterous bairns are allowed. As well as not toting the tiddlers along, there’s no need to tow a tent either: stays at this park, a 15-minute drive from the North York Moors, are in chic shepherd’s huts set next to a peaceful coarse fishing lake. Each of the units looks out over miles’ worth of farmland, all the way up to the distant Hambleton Hills, and is named after the owners’ rescued sheep. They’re handcrafted to a high standard (the huts that is, not the sheep), with an ensuite bathroom including a shower and free Duck Island toiletries. There’s also a woodburning stove and a mini kitchen with a microwave, hot plate, kettle, toaster and cooking utensils. Sit down for food on the fold-down table using the hut’s fancy Emma Bridgewater crockery, then curl up in the sheepskin-covered armchair to watch a DVD on the TV. When it’s naptime, get cosy in the double bed or single bunk with the Bronte by Moon blankets and cushions. Weather looking good? Take a board game from the accommodation outside to play on your private patio, which has a firepit, barbecue, seating, a herb garden and a strawberry planter. If there’s anything else you need to pick up to make your evening go with a swing, check out the luxury goodies from Yorkshire at the site’s small shop.

Local attractions

Avian aficionado? Head to the Thirsk Birds Of Prey Centre (five minutes’ drive) or just wander around the North York Moors National Park (15 minutes) with your eyes to the sky. More animals are to be seen at the Monk Park Farm Visitor Attraction (15 minutes), and then you can learn a little more about them at The World Of James Herriot, the former home of the famed vet and writer. If you’re not interested in creatures of any sort, get out on the green at the Thirsk & Northallerton Golf Club (15 minutes) or go on a jaunt around the Jacobean Kiplin Hall and gardens (half an hour).
