Middle Slippery Ford Barn

Middle Slippery Ford Barn is nestled in beautiful Yorkshire moorland with little passing traffic and breath-taking views of the stunning Yorkshire hills. Sunsets can be spectacular and we’re sure you will be captivated by the open farmland and our rural location.

Built in the early 17th Century, Middle Slippery Ford Barn is a converted barn which forms part of a grade II listed farmhouse.

Middle Slippery Ford Barn is located just a ten minute drive from Howarth – a delightful heritage village - and home to the famous Brontë sisters.

We are only 15 minutes drive from the popular dales market town of Skipton -
with its host of independent shops and eateries. There are lots of great pubs and restaurants within the locality, as well as historical buildings like Skipton Castle and visitor attractions near-by.

Middle Slippery Ford Barn is an ideal base for walkers and cyclists – who come to enjoy the natural beauty of the streams, hills and surrounding countryside.

This is also a popular area for wildlife and bird-watching.

Country pursuits are popular past-times - with horse riding and 4 x 4 off-road courses on the doorstep. Our guests never struggle for something adventurous to do.

Farmers markets and agricultural shows offer a great day out, and visits to working farms can bring an educational element to your stay. Dry stone walling courses are available on request.
