Charming Shepherd Huts
Tucked away in the heart of the North York Moors National Park, set within seven acres of gardens, wildflower meadows, and grass paddocks, our spacious cottages and charming huts sit quietly at the end of a private no-through road, surrounded by forest, open farmland, and rolling moorland.
Discover the beauty, peace, and wildlife of North Yorkshire in a truly idyllic setting.
Whether you’re here to relax by the large fishing pond, home to impressive carp, koi, sturgeon, and more (fishing license required) or to explore the scenic moors, forests, and nearby coastline, Middlehead Cottages & Huts are the perfect base. With direct access to off-road walking and cycling trails right from your door, adventure is never far away.
