Original to the agricultural building, these substantial timbers showcase traditional Yorkshire craftsmanship. The beams run the full length of the open-plan living space, drawing your eye upward and emphasising the barn's heritage. Combined with the preserved stone walls, they provide authentic character that modern builds simply cannot replicate.

Pet Friendly

Prospect Barn does not accept pets. The owners maintain a no-pets policy throughout the year. Whilst the surrounding countryside would suit dogs perfectly with fields and footpaths nearby, the property remains pet-free. This ensures guests with allergies can stay comfortably.
