Yorkshire, West Yorkshire, England
Herdwick Valley is a handcrafted shepherd's hut at Breaks Fold Farm in West Yorkshire, the original filming location for Channel 4's Carry on Glamping. The hut sits in a private corner of a field in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with dark sky status, looking out across the valley between Harrogate and Skipton. A full double bed, mini kitchenette, ensuite shower, and balcony seating fill the interior. An optional private hot tub can be added for an extra fee.
Breaks Fold Farm is an award winning environmental farm, with energy sourced from renewables and a commitment to eco products. The dark sky designation and AONB status create conditions for stargazing that are measurably superior to most of Yorkshire. Direct access to off road walks starts from the door. No children or pets are allowed, maintaining the quiet. At 4.98 across 44 reviews, the early reception is very strong. The TV connection and the eco credentials give it substance beyond the Channel 4 association.
We love the dark sky AONB location between Harrogate and Skipton. The valley views by day and the stargazing conditions at night give this hut two distinct experiences in one stay.
Many reviewers praised the beautiful scenery and lovely reservoir walks. They found the hot tub spectacular and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of their stay, appreciating the wonderful getaway.
