Fowl Green Farm

Fowl Green Farm is a traditional hill farm set in the North York Moors National Park. The holiday cottages have been created from original stone farm buildings which are at least three hundred years old. In each cottage there remains evidence of their former life so the experience will combine 21st century standards of comfort with 18th century rural atmosphere. The farm itself houses numerous livestock, including black face sheep, free range hens, highland cattle and last but not least, Nell, a working sheepdog.

Below offers a brief description of the different holiday cottages available and what they have to offer:

The Barn -

The barn used to be part barn, part milking parlour and part granary, now it is the largest cottage sleeping six and has three double bedrooms, one downstairs and two upstairs. Central heating is under floor, which means no radiators downstairs and no cold spots plus plenty of hot water.

The Cow Byre -

The cowbyre was converted most recently. It was used as a milking parlour until the 1970s. The cows would walk up into their own stall and eat the food put in front of them in a trough as they patiently stood to be milked. Today the cowbyre is a ground floor cottage which sleeps four people in two bedrooms, a double and a twin. It is very accessible for wheelchair users.

The Top Pigsty -

These were four small pigsties which were also used for weaning calves. They have rough stone walls and are now two studios, one with a mezzanine. The top pigsty sleeps two people and is accessible to wheelchair users.

The Bottom Pigsty -

These were four small pigsties which were also used for weaning calves. They have rough stone walls and large stone troughs which form the base of the front wall. The feed could be poured in from the outside and the pigs or calves could eat from the trough inside without the door needing to be opened. We have left the troughs and closed the gap to the outside to stop the draughts. The bottom pigsty sleeps four people and is completely accessible on the ground floor.

The cottages come with all bed linen and towels and there is a laundry system you can use. Covered car parking is available within a few feet of the cottages. Each cottage has colour televisions with DVD players and wooden garden furniture in the yard and access to barbeques.

The old cart shed is now a communal lounge and games room. This is heated by an open log fire and is a great space for children to play, or for groups to get together in the evening. The cart shed is also wheelchair accessible. For more detailed information on the cottages and what they have to offer, check Fowl Green Farm's informative website below.
