Who we are
About the farm
Our 140-acre (about 57 ha) farm lies in north-east Dorset near Gillingham; the Hall family moved here in 2004, and we have turned the former arable fields back into pasture. Our 100% pasture-fed Dorset Down, Shetland and Poll Dorset sheep, managed with Holistic Planned Grazing, have been Pasture for Life certified since 2017; we sell their lamb and hogget in meat boxes online with nationwide delivery and in our farm shop. Our flock's wool is made into knitting yarn, throws and knit kits, and the shop also sells sheepskins, apple juice, homemade preserves and candles. We welcome guests in our award-winning three-room B&B and run craft workshops and school visits.

Write a review
How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
