About the host

Hosted by Julie Houseman

Host profile image
I married Nicholas in 1981 and we lived on our other farm at Blubberhouses for 18 years where our son John was born. In 1999 we converted the Old Calf Shed into a granny flat for Nicholas's mother and moved back to Prospect. Mary had lived here since 1932. first with her parents and then her husband and four children. Nicholas, John and myself farm both Prospect Farm which is 200 acres and Hall farm. Blubberhouses which is 320 acres, with the cows here and the young stock and sheep at Blubberhouses. We milk about 150 holstien cows and sell the milk to Arla, I worked after leaving school in a Lingere shop where I qualified as a bra and corsetry fitter and worked for 10 years until leaving to have John, Since then I worked for 17 years for my brother in his butchers shop, and at our local restaurant. In 1989 I started my own catering business which I still do now, providing food for anything from christenings, weddings, funerals, open days, shows where ever food is needed.

Why they chose this property

The farm has been Nicholas's family home for nearly 90 years. His mother, Mary and her 2 sisters along with her parents moved here after being moved off their farm by the water authority due to the building of a reservoir next to their farm , After her marriage to George in 1945 they stay to farm in partnership, The farm has evolved over the years and the calf shed was converted in 1999 for Mary where she lived happily until 2016, In 2018 we decided to convert the small building opposite, as it was no longer used by the farm business.

What makes this property unique

we have some of the most stunning views, looking down the Wharfe Valley and onto the Chevin , we can watch the planes coming and going from Leeds Bradford Airport with out the noise. We live in the centre of the 200 acre farm up a private 400 metre lane that is secured by a large electric gate so we are a very safe and enjoy peace and quiet to relax . We are 30 minutes from the centre of Leeds or Bradford, 45 minutes from York or the beautiful dales and very easy access to all the major roads. Whilst you are here why not let us show you round the farm, watch the cows being milked by robots and help feed the calves. Also treat yourselves to afternoon tea served on vintage china enjoy freshly made sandwiches, mini quiches, and homemade scones with jam and cream and a selection of home made cakes , or indulge in homemade chocolates.
