The Storyteller. Take a magic carpet ride into a cove full of spellbinding tales of Ali Baba, Aladdin and Sinbad the Sailor. The Storyteller Shepherd Hut is inspired by the collection of sensational legends, One Thousand and One Arabian Nights.

Farm Features and Sustainability Initiatives

The farm property boasts 300 acres of beautiful Yorkshire pasture and arable land and is home to a flock of Texel, Suffolk, Zwartble, and Wensleydale sheep, which the armers rear in exchange for their woolly fleeces. The newest addition to the farm is a couple of Angora goats who provide luxurious mohair. The farm also produces hemp and flax fibers which are processed on-site, before being transported to Harrison Spinks' factory in Leeds. Here, they are carded and blended with other natural materials to make sumptuous natural mattress upholstery fillings.

Environmental Commitment

The fact that these materials can be produced and processed less than 20 miles from the company's factory, reinforces the commitment the farm has to the environment. We try to be as sustainable as possible in our processes, one example being the alternative uses for hemp. Not only are the fibers used as luxury mattress fillings, but we have also used the by-products for heating the Manor via our biomass boiler, as animal bedding, and even for building projects, such as their very own Hornington Gallery.
