Matt Baker returned to live on his family farm in Durham after his mum suffered an accident. Normally, the Countryfile star lives with his wife Nicola and their children Luke and Molly in an idyllic farmhouse.

Speaking of filming Channel 4's Our Farm in the Dales, he told The Metro: "We have our own smallholding in the Chilterns, a smaller version of my parent’s farm, where we have our own chickens and livestock." See inside Matt's country property where he has sheep, chicken, dogs and donkeys…

Matt's home also has a utility room, which one of their sheep once managed to get into. Posting a photo of the animal standing inside his house, Matt wrote: "Just rang home – my daughter said 'mum's going to send you a picture of the utility room…don't worry everything is now sorted."
