Nature Conservation

Nature Conservation in a nutshell.

The wedding venue provides funds for nature conservation work on the farm and by holding your wedding here you are helping support and sustain a little piece of the English countryside.  The farm is part organic and part conventionally farmed and around the farm there are;

• 80 acres of woods including 35 acres of ancient woodland
• 14km of hedgerows
• 9 acres of flowery meadows
• a mile of streams
• an historic orchard and 3 acre marsh
• 170 acres of farmland

Living on the farm there are many rare animals and plants including barn owls, otters, kingfishers and red deer. We undertake work targeted at butterflies (white admiral, fritillaries), birds (yellow hammer, barn owl) and animals (water shrew, newts, frogs and toads).  We lay hedges, thin woods and manage meadows, orchards and ponds for wildlife.
