sharing our land, our skills and our passion for soil, soul and community
The land here is private and peaceful and is ideal for retreating from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. You can come and spend your days walking the land, reading, writing, undertaking a creative project or exploring the nature reserve. It is possible to be here and not encounter another person and we will respect your privacy.
Not so with the wildlife, there is an abundance of birds, (owls, finches, long tailed tits, buzzards just to mention a few) and bats, dormice, voles, badgers and roe deer all live on the farm. In the nature reserve there are rare flowers (heath lobelia) butterflies, snakes and ancient field systems now taken over by woodland.
The land and nature reserve were originally part of Stanton Moor a settlement going back centuries. Stanton means stony place, there are beautiful granite outcrops everywhere, gorse and ferns. The last inhabited farmstead on the moor lies in ruins on a path in the nature reserve not far from our farm.
