This is our only accommodation which has a TV.

Haystacks will consider allowing one small-medium sized dog to join you, providing he/she has good manners and knows how to behave in the countryside where there are many temptations such as livestock, pheasants, squirrels and rabbits.

Please ensure you contact us to obtain approval prior to adding a dog to your booking and note we can not accept larger breeds or puppies (up to 12 months).

If permission is given for you to bring your dog we require confirmation he/she has up to date vaccinations, this is to keep yours and other guests dogs safe.

We will provide the use of a towel, throw, bowls, treats, LED collar, identity disc (with our contact details), poop bags, shampoo and muddy paw wash - in return we ask that you please respect our lovely hut and do not allow your dog on the seated area or bed.

Our price includes a Welcome Hamper filled with Yorkshire goodies, locally sourced breakfast ingredients for your first morning as well as a starter pack of logs for the wood burner and wood fired outdoor bath tub.

We have space for parking a short walk away from the hut and provide wheelbarrows for you to transfer luggage from your vehicle to the hut.

Please note that there is limited storage space in the bothy.

We want your stay with us to be memorable for all the right reasons and have carefully thought about the personal touches that we provide for our guests, we hope you will enjoy them.
