Our Story
After 15-years in the corporate world managing an unsustainable, unpredictable work-life, we were always looking for moments to escape & reconnect as a family.
We'd dreamed about starting our own hospitality business & eventually took the plunge in January 2026 when the fantastic opportunity came up in Wormald Green.
Having been born & raised locally, we have a real love for the area which offers the peace & tranquillity of the countryside & for those who want explore, there are some beautiful towns/villages & landmarks nearby.
By combining our love of the outdoors & luxurious breaks away, we've made it our mission at Little Orchard Retreats to create the perfect environment for you to escape from the chaos of life, switch off & reconnect with nature.

Our Facilities
All three Shepherds Huts have a fully equipped kitchen & ensuite & are heated (radiators or underfloor heating) making them the perfect hideaway all-year-round.

Our Location
There is so much to explore here at Little Orchard Retreats.
On the site, there is a beautiful woodland, ponds, wildflower meadow & even a Victorian railway bridge!
If you're wanting to explore more of the local area, there's a bridal path that runs through the site that takes you to Markington to the West & further bridal paths to the North of the site that take you to Bishop Monkton or Burton Leonard. There are a few lovely pubs en route to making your walk even more enjoyable.
For trips further afield there is a bus stop right outside (36 - Ripon to Leeds) which takes you straight to Ripon, Ripley, Harrogate, Harewood & Leeds.
For more information on walks & bus services, please email us or give us a call!
