Charlie's Farm Shop is the Hughes family's shop at Southview Farm in Bury, West Sussex, selling raw milk and cream from their own herd since 1980, plus home reared beef, pork and rose veal.
Charlie's Farm Shop sits on Southview Farm at Bury near Pulborough in West Sussex, where the Hughes family have been producing milk since 1919, starting with a herd of 7 Guernsey cows.
Ian and Julie Hughes began selling unpasteurised milk in 1980, and the family are now the longest standing sellers of raw milk in Sussex.
The shop has an on-site butchery, with beef from the farm hung for 21 to 28 days, milk-fed pork and rose veal, alongside raw milk, local cheese, seasonal fruit and vegetables, eggs, bread and Sussex wines and beers.

First class farm shop with excellent products and a great butchers shop. Some amazing Seasonal treats and always top quality. A superb family run business. Proud to support this huge asset to our local community.

Great farm shop. Excellent quality produce and a wide selection. The meat counter is amazing! I'll be back for more pork chops.

Lots of lovely local produce and a charming little shop. However, the customer service by the two blonde ladies behind the counter was an extremely rude experience the young lady failed to acknowledge us as we approached the counter, scanned our products through without even saying hello nor making any form of eye contact and instead was more interested speaking the the lady behind the counter with her, we paid for our stuff and the young lady didn’t even have the audacity to acknowledge the payment went through, instead made no contact with us at all after spending a reasonable amount of money in the shop. I said thank you after we paid, to which we were rudely ignored again! Very poor service and sadly we won’t be visiting here again.
