About the site

This site is a haven amongst the natural wilderness of the landscape. Each of the cabins is tucked privately into the surroundings, set along the edge of the moorlands and farmlands of Nidderdale. The cabins at Little Seed Field are octagonal in shape, providing an inside space that is comfortable and roomy. Six of the seven glamping cabins have double beds and bunk beds and the seventh has a king size bed with a single pull out bed. Four of the cabins are ensuite, complete with shower, basin and toilet. In addition, each cabin includes lighting, electricity, crockery, cutlery, bedding, inside seating, outside seating and a private BBQ. Dogs are welcome in all of the accommodation! The cabins are secluded and peaceful, so guests are treated to stunning views, crystal clear dark skies and the chance to observe hunting owls and grazing deer.

The site does have accessible parking close to the cabins if required and the hosts are very happy to accommodate any additional requirements or personal requests if they can. The site is open all year, with each season providing different opportunities to explore and discover the natural beauty of the wild Yorkshire Dales.

Glamping Cabin - Wild Bramble Ensuite Cabin (Dog Friendly)May 2026

Excellent site set peacefully out of the way - we stayed in the Wild Bramble cabin for one night and it was brilliant! Great night's sleep, and great little kitchen area to prepare breakfast. Will definitely be back with a bigger group to take advantage of the party barn on site!

A note from the site themselves...

We are a family run site, located on the edge of our fourth generation working dairy farm. We believe in good old fashioned outdoor fun, tree climbing, hiking, hunting for wildlife and marvelling at the stars! We are also a tiny bit romantic (!), so we love being able to provide cosy cabins with a log stove, for those looking for some down time.

We're right in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, but there is so much more than just rolling hills and dramatic skylines! We offer natural beauty, sweeping horizons, uninterrupted views and accommodation that is not overlooked. We even offer a free farm tour if you would like to know more about dairy farming and meet some of our cows!
