About The Old Hen Shed

The Old Hen Shed is a stunning detached wooden cabin set on a working smallholding 4 miles from Haworth in Yorkshire. This converted farm building combines modern techniques with renewable air source heating to create a stylish retreat that'll make you forget you're sleeping where chickens once lived.

Located in peaceful Yorkshire countryside, this property gives you the best of both worlds. Feed alpacas (including the cheeky Ronnie) in the morning and explore the Yorkshire Dales by afternoon. Wake up to donkeys braying and peacocks strutting past your window - beats any alarm clock! The smallholding feels wonderfully remote but shops and pubs are just 1 mile away.

The accommodation features three beautifully appointed bedrooms sleeping 6 guests total. There's a double with ensuite bath/shower, a second double with ensuite shower and a twin with separate shower facilities. The heart of the property is its open-plan living area combining kitchen, dining and sitting areas - perfect for that post-hot-tub wine and gossip session.

Explore Haworth's Bronte connections (4 miles), visit Skipton - Gateway to the Dales (15 miles/25 minutes), tour East Riddlesden Hall (6 miles/15 minutes), or venture to the Victorian spa town of Harrogate (25 miles/45 minutes). The Yorkshire Dales National Park offers endless walking opportunities.

The Old Hen Shed is perfect for families, couples or friends seeking quality time together. Soak in the private hot tub under the stars after a day exploring.
