Just eight miles from Skipton, the starting point for the Yorkshire Dales, the mediaeval market town of Barnoldswick is located in the Pennine hills amid lovely rolling scenery. The centre of England is home to a vibrant town known to residents as Barlick. It is proud of its manufacturing heritage, which spans from a significant textile sector to the production of modern aircraft engines at the Rolls Royce factory. The town is crossed by bridleways and cycle paths on the Pennines, and the magnificent summit section of the Leeds & Liverpool canal meanders past the town and its booming marina. Excellent walks along the old Roman road at Brogden Lane, the rolling heather moorland of Weets, and the canal towpath offer some of the best walking and cycling options in the country. Pendle Hill also boasts some of the best vistas in the country. The town has several small businesses that sell a wide variety of locally grown food, including meat from nearby farms displayed on butcher blocks and artisan breads adorning bakeries' displays.

    It was so quiet too, which helped us relax, well off the beaten track. King size bed was so comfortable slept in everyday! quality Hot shower after every walk we did.

    The view from the hut is exceptional and the secureness of the garden for our dog made us even more relaxed. The village of Barnolcswick is lovely (bit too far for us to walk) but parking there is easy and free. Special mention to the Barlick Tap micro pub which is a lovely dog friendly venue. Easy trips to Malham Cove and Bolton Abbey as days out and even did the scenic Spipton to Carlisle train ride for fun and also enjoyed dog walks along the Leeds to Liverpool canal. A Great holiday with the Herdsman Hut being the star of the show -exceptional.
