Incredible views, dramatic features and beautiful accommodation nestled within the historic Sheriff Hutton Castle. An astronomer's dream with dark sky's highlighting every lunar array visible to the eye. Our welcoming hosts introduced us to this humble part of the countryside and their animals (too loving to be labelled as livestock). The hosts also showed us the local walking routes and provided information for other local activities. The accommodation rooms feature stylish bespoke fittings, crisp white sheets, dangerously comfortable beds and perfect interior finishing. I will go back here, I may not even leave the Castle Grounds.

This is a castle that was once part of the Neville family and has many historical connections to Richard III. It is privately owned so they only way to see inside is to go to an event there (such as a wedding) but you are able to go around the castle perimeter on public footpaths (Centenary Way) There are no intact walls but the corners are intact. In its heyday, you would have been able to easily see York Minster from here.
Dramatic ruin associated with Richard III. Grounds privately owned so your views are from public paths which encircle the castle. At this time of year they are muddy, so stout all-weather footwear needed. (There are no additional facilities such as would be found at National Trust or English Heritage - all you can do is look from the outside).
Excellent stay at shepherd's hut, couldn't ask for more.
What a special place. We had our wedding here and it was absolutely stunning. The owners could not have been more accommodating and we had exactly the day we wanted.
