Craven Shepherd Huts

Spent two nights in this very well appointed Herdwick wagon , only wish it had been longer . The three wagons are set back from the rear car park and elevated so some feeling of privacy and seclusion. Our wagon was very clean and surprisingly spacious with a fully functional shower room/toilet with heated floor , what a treat. The wagon also had a lovely little pot bellied stove which on colder days would have made it very cozy , unfortunately for us the weather was superb in the high 20’s . The bed was particularly comfortable and large and after a days hike , a lovely meal and pint in the pub was the perfect end to the day . So often the first night in a new bed in unfamiliar surroundings can be uneasy ….. no such issue here in this tranquil setting with only the distant sound of sheep . Highly recommend , if we ever return to Yorkshire we will for sure wish to stay here but for longer . I should also say everyone we met employed at pub/restaurant were extremely friendly and helpful.

First time staying in a shepherds hut so not sure what to expect but we had a lovely surprise. Spotlessly clean, lots of lovely "extras" such as breakfast pack, fresh milk when you need it from the Craven Arms pub, underfloor heating and an extremely comfortable bed. But the best bit were the people in the pub and Ali the lady who takes care of the huts. Our daughter was camping down the road with her family but became ill overnight. We cannot thank Ali , the bar manager and other staff for their kindness and consideration enough. Nothing was too much trouble and we are grateful for their support. Would definitely recommend this as an unusual, and beautiful place to stay
