We are proud to sell our own reared beef.  We employ the highest standards of traditional stockman ship, treating animals with respect. The cattle are free to roam on our own land as far as the weather permits. During the winter months, when stabled inside, they are fed on natural foods including hay, silage and a cereal diet. No added hormones, additives or growth promoters are used, ensuring we produce meat which is not only succulent but full of flavour. We are part of the Farm Assured Scheme for British Beef & Lamb, registered since 1996. This is an organisation monitoring food safety and animal welfare issues, enforcing strict procedures for livestock producers.   Membership involves rigorous, annual checks and inspections to ensure our animals are kept to a high standard. The welfare of the animals is paramount at all stages. Our computer records allow full trace-ability, providing us with the history of any individual animal from birth. All our beef  is hung, on the bone, for a minimum of  7 days. Steak  joints are hung for a minimum of  21 days which gives you the flavour and tenderness of our succulent meat..
