It’s nearly bramble picking season, for guests who are arriving over the next few weeks please ask us where they are around the farm as there are plenty this year! Sloes are coming too and I can vouch for how good the bramble gin and sloe gin that we made last year was!
… bramble and apple pie also goes down well with the Yorkshireman! 😂

How to paint a cottage with the assistance of a tractor…. As always I’m the one on the forks but then I don’t have the necessary driving/operating skills to get it into such tight spaces!!

The new chickens all lay different coloured eggs! The large blue at the front was a double yoke…

Always grateful when guests leave us such amazing gifts. Thank you, we are glad you enjoyed your stay with us ❤️

Beautiful weather for dog walking. There is always a field where you can let your dogs off their leads, just ask which ones are available on your arrival.

Cat and chickens enjoying the hard work of my sister in the garden.

There have been a few “house moves” and Margo (the pig) decided to visit her new neighbours. Harry is not quite sure but Margo decided to stay for a nap!

The sun is finally shining in Devon!

For many reasons we were not able to accept holiday requests until now but we opened our doors last weekend for our first visitors who had a lovely time on the farm and around the area.

This year will be different as Brenda will not be here. Sadly she passed away last month after a short illness, she was a huge part of the farm and is missed very much.

I have now taken on the baking of the scones and Rick will be taking people round to feed the animals.

Please feel free to make enquiries or book through Travel Chapter.

Look forward to seeing those of you who have visited before or anyone who is new to the farm.

We will start posting again now we are open.

Thank you.

Fencing was going well until someone had a little accident…now beginning to get out and about, though he’s back into the pickup rather than the comfy link box!!

The climbing frame is up and has the approval of cat and the ducks 😊

15/06/2023

After the lambing it’s grass cutting season, at least there’s been no rain this time…

12/06/2023

We’ve been shearing for the last couple of days and so grateful to have had such fantastic guys come in. Start to finish less than 2 mins a sheep, so long as we could stop them escaping!
Now…. can we interest anyone in some daggings, great for the garden as slow release fertiliser…

Been away for a few days and this was the view when I came home… beautiful sunset.

03/06/2023

It’s such a hard life being a cat on the farm, lazing in the beautiful Devon weather. It’s been glorious for a while and looks like it’s staying that way for the foreseeable.

25/05/2023

Was a busy few weeks but lambing has finished. Beautiful evening yesterday to bring in some of the longwools and their lambs.

26/03/2023

Everybody look at the camera and say cheese!

21/03/2023

Just a few minutes old but already up and trying to find where the food comes from…

18/03/2023

First lamb of the main flock arrived today. 6 days early but all well. Looks like we are in for a busy few weeks. Thankfully sis and 2 veterinarian student arrive next Friday so lots more hands on deck.

26/02/2023

Spring is nearly on its way. Our Devon and Cornwall longwools have finished lambing and it’s only a few weeks until the main flock start. If you have ever wanted to see new born lambs then the best time would be early Apr when the fields will be full of them all bouncing around. They will be around for a while but most energetic when young, weren’t we all!
If anyone is interested in coming to stay then contact Rick or I on 01288 371086 or bookings can be made via holiday cottages.

We are lucky to have such mild tempered rams on the farm. Most enjoy a good scratch, particularly Ephraim…

22/01/2023

After our first 6 months, here is the first ram lamb born less than 24 hours ago. Longwools are lovely natured and “mum” is looking after him well 🥰

22/01/2023

Sunrise this morning towards Dartmoor. We started lambing the Devon and Cornwall longwools yesterday, first one on the new farm … photos to follow when we have daylight 🥰

Time to bring the ewes into the barn, think they are quite happy 😊
