Our Farm Next Door

It’s October, and in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, Amanda Owen and her family set to work converting a centuries-old stone barn into a family home.

Amanda and family face re-roofing Anty John’s, their ancient stone barn, during the Yorkshire Dales winter after a wet and stormy fall has left the project months behind.

As winter turns to spring, the Owen family balance the pressures of lambing time with the race to get their Yorkshire Dales farmhouse renovation watertight.

It’s early summer and as the Owen kids excitedly embark on a school holiday full of fun and farm frolics, work on their family’s Yorkshire Dales renovation continues.

It’s summer in Swaledale—the renovation of Anty John’s about to hit its one-year anniversary, with plenty of work still to do for Richard the builder and the Owen family.

As fall arrives in Swaledale, Yorkshire shepherdess Amanda Owen and her family make the most of the glorious weather as their ambitious farmhouse renovation continues.

Christmas is fast approaching, and Amanda and the kids are preparing their farm animals and pets—including sheep, cows, horses, and a miniature pony—for the cold weather to come.

It's a new year in Swaledale, and Amanda, Clive, and the kids enter the new year full of optimism as their ambitious project to renovate an ancient stone farmhouse continues.

As spring finally arrives in Swaledale, the Owens gear up for another busy lambing season.
