Shepards Hut AirBnB is a place to stay in Sheriff Hutton. It is listed here so you know it is there, but we have not yet established whether dogs are welcome — so there is no verdict on this page and no stamp. If it is your business, claim the page and tell us, and we will stamp it.
Shepards Hut AirBnB is a real stay in Sheriff Hutton, and it is here so you know it exists. But we have not been able to find a dog policy for it that we would stand behind, so we are not going to guess at one. No verdict, no stamp, no date.
If this is your business, tell us whether dogs are welcome and we will put a stamp on it — free, and it stays free. Tell us your dog policy. Want the whole page — photos, prices, your own words? Claim this listing.
If you have been and you know the answer, tell us and we will go and confirm it.
Photos, a sample menu and prices, any room details and the venue’s own house rules will appear here once the business claims this listing. Until then, what you see above is what we’ve checked and verified ourselves.
Claiming lets you add all of that and reply to reviews in your own name, right underneath them. £12.99 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.
Five miles of field path and green lane out of Sheriff Hutton, past the four broken towers of the fifteenth-century castle and the earlier Norman ringwork above the village, with fifty metres of ascent spread over two hours; a moderate rather than easy walk only because of the field gates and the mud. Park on the wide village street near the church and the castle field path leaves from the southern edge of the village; the number 21 bus from York serves Sheriff Hutton several times a day. The castle ruins themselves are fenced private land seen from the path rather than entered, the going is through working arable and pasture with livestock likely, and there are stiles a heavy dog will need lifting over; there is no reliable water, so carry some.
Just under seven miles linking sections of the Foss Walk, the Ebor Way and the Centenary Way around the village, two and three quarter hours, mainly flat with one modest climb up towards West Lilling and a handful of gates. Start from the castle ruins in Sheriff Hutton where there is free roadside parking on the main street and a pub in the village for afterwards; the 71 bus from York reaches the village on weekdays. Almost the whole circuit crosses grazed fields with both sheep and cattle, and this is one route where a bull has been known to be in with the herd, so it is a lead-on walk and worth taking seriously; the Foss provides water at the Sheriff Hutton Bridge end, and the low ground beside the river stays wet well into spring.
The big day out of this patch: nearly nine miles from Sheriff Hutton north-east into the woods and rolling farmland at the foot of the Howardian Hills, with 200 metres of ascent and around four hours on the move. Park in Sheriff Hutton village and take the castle field path out, returning by the Centenary Way; the 21 bus from York gets you there without a car if you start early. Sure footing is needed in places and there are stiles that will defeat a large dog on its own, the route crosses grazing land where cattle and sheep are common, and water is scarce between becks, so this one is for a fit dog with a good recall and a carried bowl.
Nobody has written one for Shepards Hut AirBnB. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
