Our farm
Home Dove Cottage Woolcrafts Our farm Wool Products

Our small 20 acre farm is located in a quiet valley in hilly rural landscape. Our fields are all herb rich permanent pasture divided by ancient hedgerows. We aim to farm in balance with nature and increase biodiversity. We farm organically and are accredited with the Soil Association. We are part of Tir Gofal, an agri-environmental programme. As part of that programme we have fenced off a streamside corridor, restored a large part of the hedgerows and built an otter holt. We have put up two bench seats made from Welsh oak in one of our fields where you can sit and enjoy looking at the pond when you stay with us.

We keep a small flock of Shetland sheep for their beautiful wool and tasty meat. 

We keep a few goats to provide us with milk, yogurt and cheese and to entertain our guests. 

We've got lots of chickens and sell their eggs.

Our cats Luci and Socks  excel at rodent control and are very cuddly. They are very inquisitive and like visiting Dove Cottage!
