A beautiful place to stay!

Brilliantly designed, comfortable with everything you need provided. Fiona has used the highest quality fittings and furnishings for a luxurious stay. The views are even better than the pictures show. Peaceful and relaxing. Walks to the moors and the Vale of Pickering from the door. Absolutely wonderful!

Heaven near Helmsley

Our stay at the shepherds hut was everything we anticipated and more. My wife and I couldn't have been happier with the accommodations and with our interactions with Fiona. The property is so peaceful and pastoral and our communication with Fiona was delightful. If you are feeling weary or stressed by life, a day or two here will be your best remedy. Longer is even better. There is also the convenience of the lovely village of Helmsley just a couple of miles away and an excellent farm shop/ eatery within 1/2 mile. Lots of great hiking and historical points of interest close by. We stayed for a week and didn't tire for things to do. We would happily stay here again. Thank you Fiona for a wonderful stay!
