The Herdsman Luxury Shepherds Hut

We had the most amazing time, Alison our host was truly fab and informative.

The Hut was top notch, everything catered for with the most outstanding views. We also did the Walk 22 over Pendle Way, Which was breath-taking. Barnoldswick is a quaint town with lots of eateries and pubs & very dog friendly. We will defiantly return.

This is our 2nd stay at Craven View shepherd's huts.

The property is clean and well equipped, set in a stunning location with breathtaking views. Enjoyed using the outside space including the added bonus of a sauna. The owners are very welcoming, friendly and thoughtful, we will definitely be going back.

Lovely people Beautiful surroundings Immaculate, cozy and functional shepherds hut.

Lovely small cosy accommodation with everything you need, and spectacular views right from the door.

Everything was spotless. Only thing to be aware of is, the garden fence is not that high, about 4ft, my younger highly energetic labrador could have easily jumped over it, especially with the temptation of sheep at the other side! I didn't trust him so he had to be kept on an extending lead, fence was fine for the elderly beagle though. Be mindful if you have an untrustworthy dog that can jump, don't risk them getting in with the livestock.

Such a beautiful peaceful place to enjoy and relax .

We sat outside in the sunshine watching the world go by . The little hut had everything you needed for 2 people and our dog max loved it too especially with the garden being enclosed for him . We hope to make this an annual getaway .... thank you for a wonderful stay x

It was a really memorable for us as it was our first trip with our dog and he really enjoyed, The property was really clean and tidy,everything was available and John and Alison were so lovely.

Highly recommend to stay away from crowded city life and enjoy the peace and view on there.

What beautiful huts, so clean, comfy and very well equipped.

The covered outdoor seating areas with barbecues and outside log burners for cooking on are a wonderful idea for giving extra space. The views are gorgeous and we heard nothing but birds and sheep. Alison and John are great hosts, so friendly and welcoming and you can see how hard they work to make this a fabulous experience for their guests. We were a party of 2, each staying in our own hut .The Herdsman was perfect for the dog due to being completely safe and enclosed with a cute wood gate. Perfect stay for relaxing, reading, drinking wine and just being in peace. Good for the soul. Thank you Alison and John I'd love to return. Shirley, Catherine and Bob The Dog.

- Perfect hosts - Perfect location - Perfect accommodation - Perfect view's We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Herdsman and with a enclosed garden our fur baby enjoyed it also.

The flower planting was absolutely beautiful, and hosts we're welcoming. I would recommend this property to anyone who is looking to reset and relax.

HAD A NICE TIME AT THE HERDSMAN EVERYTHING YOU WANTED AND LOVELY VIEWS JOHN AND ALISON WERE FANTASTIC.

MY LITTLE DOG LOVED IT TOO. NICE AND EASY TO GET TO PLACES.

This is a really comfortable property and the views are superb.

It was our first stay in a shepherds hut and it wasperfect .

There was everything we needed in a perfect location . Even the weather obliged . If you love beautiful views and lots of walks high and low this is for you . Thankyou

Lovely and helpful owners , the hut has everything you could need in it .

Surrounded by countryside and in April lots of lambs , ideally placed for the Yorkshire dales and beyond, malhom cove is visible from the hut , everything about this shepherds hut is 5 star . Thanks for the Easter egg , hopefully we will be back . Paul , Karen , Barkley.

Thankyou Alison and John.

Another lovely stay at your beautiful shepherd's huts. We love this place and will be back. 10/10 Sue and Shaun and Jack the Russell x

Another lovely stay in this amazing shepherd's hut.

Great hosts, beautiful views.

Amazing location with incredible views over North Yorkshire and the three peaks.

It was so quiet too, which helped us relax, well off the beaten track. King size bed was so comfortable slept in everyday! quality Hot shower after every walk we did.

Excellent didn’t want to go home!

! 5?Star

Our first time in a shepards hut and couldnt have wished for a better stay, location and welcome from the hosts.

The view from the hut is exceptional and the secureness of the garden for our dog made us even more relaxed. The village of Barnolcswick is lovely (bit too far for us to walk) but parking there is easy and free. Special mention to the Barlick Tap micro pub which is a lovely dog friendly venue. Easy trips to Malham Cove and Bolton Abbey as days out and even did the scenic Spipton to Carlisle train ride for fun and also enjoyed dog walks along the Leeds to Liverpool canal. A Great holiday with the Herdsman Hut being the star of the show -exceptional.

A wonderful place to stay, with everything we could need for a short stay.

Bed very comfortable, and a proper bathroom with shower. The outdoor covered seating area is a great idea, allowing you to sit and enjoy the views over the valley even in the rain, and for us the enclosed garden area was perfect for dogs. The approach road is a bridleway and footpath down to Barnoldswick or up onto the moor for even more spectacular views.

Had a lovely stay at the herdsman shepherds hut.

Very relaxing and peaceful. The hosts are lovely and very welcoming. Everything I needed was there. Can't fault it at all. I will definitely be returning.

In a beautiful spot you could see for far enough the herdsman was very comfortable and cosy nice and warm The owners were very welcoming and pointed out places of interest nothing was too much trouble to them We had a lovely week

We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at the Shepards hut.

The hut had everything you needed and the bed was really comfortable. The hosts were very welcoming and accommodating and reassured us they were there whenever we needed (and so they were). The outdoor area was fabulous and despite high winds we really enjoyed making use of the log burner and manages to do a little bbq outside. The location is very private and quiet- just what we wanted. We look forward to returning.

This is a fabulous shepherds hut, we have stayed in quite a few and this is the best yet.

Great welcome and show round, credit to you for working, keeping a farm and providing such great accomadation.

The hospitality Alison shown us at our recent 3 night stay at The herdsman shepherds hut was second to none.

It had everything we wanted plus more. The weather was rubbish but we visited every mill in the area and had an absolutely fab time. The outdoor under cover bbq area was great especially with all the rain! We will definitely be going back in the summer to appreciate all the great views and walks they have to offer.

The Herdsman shepherd's hut was absolutely amazing.

The views were tremendous. The burgers and steaks bought from the owners were exceptional. The whole stay from day one till the seventh day will forever be fondly remembered. The hut was cozy and welcoming. But the best feature was the outdoor wood burner and covered seating area which looked over great green rolling field views. We would return in a heart beat, we so much enjoyed our stay. It was peaceful and nurturing to the soul. We would highly recommend a stay at the Herdsman hut. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. And our dog loved it too!

We loved the herdsman hut ,everything about it was perfect,we will definitely be going back there could not fault it at all.

Graham,Lisa and Syrus.

Where to start!

We try to get away at least once every two months and we’ve never returned to the same place twice. This get away was special. Sally met us upon arrival with a genuine welcome not a scripted well rehearsed speech. The whole experience was excellent, loved cooking on the stove. The outside views were amazing whatever the weather decided to do. We hope to stay at the hut again very soon. Thank you Sally for your warm welcome. Terry & Anita

A wonderful break as always.

It's a beautiful looking space, really warm and cosy and an incredible view.

Had a lovely stay, great scenery perfect for walks in the countryside with our dog.

The property was perfect, warm, clean and had lots of added touches by the owners. Great sitting area to cook food in the evenings while enjoying the view and ideal if you are taking a dog as there is a paddock right next to you for them to walk around and enjoy. Owners were extremely helpful, would highly recommend this place and will definitely go again.

A beautiful area and super friendly hosts!

The hut is fully equipped with everything you could ever need. Nicely situated with walks and cycle routes from the door. Sitting watching the scenery with a fire and a book was truly relaxing and much needed. I will be recommending this hut to everyone looking for an escape to the countryside!

The Herdsman hut was amazing, spotless, really well thought out.

The views were stunning. Had a great time cooking on the wood burner on the patio. It was great having the little fenced field next to the patio for our dog. The hosts we're really friendly and very helpful. We would definitely visit again.

Fantastic place for a romantic getaway!

The owners were very welcoming and helpful. The paddock opposite was perfect for our little dog to run about in with us worrying him about getting out. Would 100% recommend staying at the Herdsman!

Alison and John are excellent hosts nothing was to much trouble.

Herdsman hut was spotlessly clean with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Bonus to us when we arrived was a big paddock area we're our 2 year old border collie could run. All in all would not hesitate to back. Well done Alison and John and thank you.

We enjoyed a superb weekend chilling at the 'Herdsman' hut which offered the ideal peaceful and private get-a-way in an idylic setting.

The accommodation was spotlessly clean throughout and offered everything you you would need for two people, ranging from very comfortable king size bed, fully equiped kitchen and suprisingly large bathroom with good sized shower. Our only regret was that there's no place to hang any clothes which wasn't a real problem for our 3-night stay. For us the best part of the 'hut' lay outside with the very private patio areas to the front and covered area to the side. Patio seating offered tremendous views across the open countryside to the hills and dales in the background. There is a bbq and a log burning stove on which we did most of our evening cooking (meat packs available to buy from our hosts). All in all would certainly recommend this hide-a-way to any couple wishing for a thoroughly peaceful and relaxing break. Lastly we would like to thank our hosts Alison and John who are very friendly and extremely helpful offering advice on local areas to visit and the scenic walks around this location. Thanks for making our stay a memorable one.

The perfect get away for a couple, was so comfortable and had everything we needed.

The location is perfect so private and has such beautiful views. Alison was very friendly and helpful gave lots of advice of where to go during our stay.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful location with fantastic hosts

Alison and John are fantastic hosts, They were extremely helpful to us with directions to local spots and we even got to see one of their ewes give birth .

They really did make it an amazing stay. We cannot recommend this place highly enough from beginning to end just fantastic . Can't wait to go back

The herdsmen hut is brilliant, we couldn’t fault it, Alison and john were great

This was my second stay and I will be back again.

It's a lovely space, warm and clean and really comfortable. The views from outside are stunning and it's very, very quiet. Perfect!

What an amazing stay we had.

Alison and John are such lovely people. They are there for absolutely anything, as and when needed. It really was a beautiful stay and highly recommended

We have just returned from the most relaxing stay at the herdsman shepherds hut.

the hosts john and alison made us very welcome from the start.the hut has all you need and more,we spent a lot of time just sitting outside admiring the wonderful views.the barbecue was used and the steaks and burgers we bought from the hosts were delicious .barnoldswick is a short walk away with plenty of shops, bars , and resteraunts .what made the holiday for us was the views ,the nearby walks and john and alison.we would recommend the craven view shepherds hut to anyone ,and we will definatly return.

John and Alison fabulous hosts!

Beautiful peaceful location. Coffee pods, tea, sugar, biscuits there for your arrival. For such a small space even glasses though about e.g. gin, wine, flutes. The scenery is gorgeous on your doorstep. 15 min walk into Barnoldswick and many other places of interest not too far away by car. I would thoroughly recommend the accommodation here.
