Absolutely fantastic beef, whichever cut you buy and I’ve tried numerous from the beef fillet to make an outstanding beef wellington to burgers which always receive compliments at bbqs. The farm also does guided walks during the summer which are very informative - really interesting to hear the alternative approach being taken here with the herbal leys and how beneficial this has clearly been to the farm and the wildlife it also supports.
Highly recommend this business. We bought two of their rolled serloin beef joints for Christmas and it was absolutely the best beef we have ever had! The service from ordering to collection was fantastic as are the hard working family who run the business. We'll definitely be ordering again!

Ordered steak and it was absolutely exceptional. The cut was fantastic. Everything about it was absolutely first-class. Thank you.
Tidy, welcoming, obliging knowledgeable low carbon footprint, interesting farm diversification in very difficult trading times!
First time customer - bought a lovely Turkey and some beef and some biltong before xmas...and gotta say - it was wonderful - the meat was just exceptional - the Turkey was so good and came out oven great - so just had to write. And the whole buying experience and small touches - were just spot on. The free cooking thermometer, the way the Turkey was packaged, the cooking leaflet, the personal service when I picked it up....all spot on. And the biltong - that was so good. Just love the way these guys farm as well - they have a core of genuine sustainability in they do and it shines through. So big shout out to these farmers for what and how they are doing things. Big thumbs up from us.
Been searching for something locally that can provide this standard of food. I was not disappointed! 10/10 great price for the quality. Won’t be going anywhere else!
Amazing grass fed beef, so tasty! Also try and book a farm tour if you can, it’s really Interesting! It’s also great place to collect first class Kelly Bronze turkeys at Christmas time! All reared free range on the farm! Very friendly people! (Note: this is not a butchers of any kind)
We were lucky enough to join Sam & Kate on one of their farm walks where they gave us a tour of the farm, explained what they are doing, how they are doing it, and most importantly why. Do look out for one of their walks this summer! After we saw the cows doing their thing, Sam & Kate were kind enough to let us sample their produce in the form of a burger - why wouldn’t you let the produce do the talking when it’s that good? We bought lots of ‘samples’, all of which were simply lovely, and have been back a few times since to stock up, as well as heading there for our Christmas beef & turkey. Give the beef a try, you won’t regret it.
