Skerry Hall Farm - Historic Bed & Breakfast in North Yorkshire
Skerry Hall Farm is a family-run establishment with deep roots in the North Yorkshire landscape, offering boutique bed and breakfast accommodation and ethically reared Dexter beef. Nestled on the edge of the North York Moors, our seventeenth-century farmhouse provides guests with characterful rooms, panoramic coastal views, and immersive rural experiences. Since 2004, we have nurtured a pedigree Dexter cattle herd, producing high-quality beef through traditional farming methods. Our commitment to excellence extends to hospitality, with carefully curated breakfasts featuring homegrown and local ingredients.Guests enjoy exclusive access to our secluded moorland setting, secure cycle storage, and proximity to the Cleveland Way National Trail. As custodians of this historic property, we prioritise sustainability, animal welfare, and authentic Yorkshire hospitality. Our retirement in 2023 marks the end of an era for our B & B, but our Dexter beef remains available to discerning customers seeking exceptional marbled meat. With decades of combined experience in agriculture and hospitality, we have built a reputation for warm service, attention to detail, and preserving the unique character of this coastal farmstead.

Our three en-suite guest rooms combine historic charm with modern comforts, offering panoramic views over Robin Hood's Bay. Each room features unique period details, underfloor heating, and access to our cliff-top breakfast room. Guests enjoy homemade cakes on arrival and secure cycle storage near the Cleveland Way Trail.
Dexter Beef
We produce premium Dexter beef from our pedigree herd, raised on grass-fed diets and matured for 30 months. Our meat is dry-aged for four weeks at a local abattoir then vacuum-packed for freshness. The beef's exceptional marbling delivers rich flavour, available as fresh cuts or frozen packs direct from the farm.
