Why buy a farm or farmland in North Yorkshire
North Yorkshire farms a mix: 58% grass and 25% cereals across 6,863 commercial holdings, with about 363,000 cattle and 1,537,000 sheep. Both grazing and cropping are established here, so most kinds of holding have a market around them.
North York Moors National Park, Yorkshire Dales National Park, the Forest of Bowland National Landscape, the Howardian Hills National Landscape, and the Nidderdale National Landscape protect a large part of North Yorkshire, which keeps the countryside you are buying into as it is. Building or converting inside a protected landscape needs more care, and inside a National Park the park authority, not the council, decides planning.
Planning is decided by 4 councils in North Yorkshire (Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire, Redcar and Cleveland, and York), so rules on agricultural occupancy conditions and barn conversions vary by district. Our guides cover what to check before you offer.
