With many green spaces, you can enjoy lots of farmland and parks to walk the dog, and plenty of public footpaths and circular walks if adventure is calling.

Between Sheffield and Leeds, with the Peak District National Park right on the doorstep, Barnsley provides a well-rounded lifestyle. The town’s identity is steeped in football, with the club established in 1887, and a love for it running deep among locals.
