About Hollow Gill Huts

Set just outside of Settle between the Forest of Bowland and the Yorkshire Dales National Park, these three bespoke shepherd's huts ensure a peaceful and relaxing break. Located on a working farm, tucked away in private gardens next to the farm's woodlands and sheep! Dalesbred hut is ideal for a solo traveller or a romantic getaway with a cosy double bed facing a window to guarantee a fabulous morning view whilst you enjoy a brew in bed. Or, the Wensleydale shepherd's hut and the Swaledale shepherd's hut are great options if you're travelling with your family, or as a couple with an added single bed and a foldaway bunk bed or sofa. Each hut is beautifully decorated and has a sofa, an ensuite bathroom, a fully equipped kitchenette and a Smart TV. To keep you cosy, the huts also have underfloor heating and a log burner. Expect gorgeous sunset views over two of the three Yorkshire Peaks from your hut, and enjoy evenings outside gazing up at the starry night sky. The huts include feather down pillows, bed linen, fluffy towels, toiletries, cutlery and everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Outside each hut is a private patio area with a table and chairs for dining al fresco, listening to birdsong and spotting the neighbouring sheep and young lambs- you can even meet them! As the sun goes down you can sit around your fire pit, great for toasting marshmallows. These shepherd's huts are a great base for exploring the Yorkshire Three Peaks with the car park just 20 minutes from the site. Or, if you're looking for a slightly more relaxing stroll, there are endless trails around the Dales to explore. You can get to Malham by bike or car and head to Malham Cove in 30 minutes. No need to leave your four-legged friend behind! The huts welcome dogs for an extra charge, please just note only short haired or non moulting dogs up to a medium size are permitted. For fires, you'll have a fire pit outside your hut and logs are available to purchase onsite.

A note from the site themselves...

Welcome to Hollow Gill Huts! We are Emma and Pete Stephenson, and we're excited to share our picturesque countryside and farm with you. We've called this area home for over ten years, beginning our life in the dales in Horton-in-Ribblesdale, then moving to a small farm in Settle, and finally settling at Far Cappleside Farm three years ago.

Our story began in 2006 when we met at university. We married in 2012 and now have three wonderful children who love farm and country life in the Yorkshire Dales. Pete follows in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, continuing the family farming tradition.

After completing my degree in 2007, I worked in hospitality and have spent the past 11 years supporting parents of children with disabilities for the local authority. We aim to offer a stylish and memorable experience during your stay with us.

Our dream of creating a shepherd hut site started after enjoying one on a family holiday. We can't wait to welcome you to our little slice of heaven.

We hope you love the huts as much as we do. They provide a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The views here are breathtaking and can instantly relieve stress as you enjoy a cup of tea or a glass of bubbly.

We strategically placed the huts above the farm, next to mature woodland, to ensure our guests enjoy tranquility and stunning views away from farmyard noise.

Our farm remains a central part of our lives, but we're thrilled to welcome you to Hollow Gill Huts. Looking after you during your stay is our top priority, and we look forward to hosting you, your family, and your friends soon. We hope to see you very soon! Emma and Pete
