What our visitors say

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Had a fabulous tractor drawn wagon tour of this farm with views of their beautiful pedigree Devon cattle caught sight of stags and learned a lot about the vagaries of farming on Exmoor. Our hosts were informative and friendly and shared much history of the place they farm.

We did a 2 hour tour today of West Ilkerton Farm with Chris and his wife. Very very good. Will definitely go back next spring. Fantastic location, lovely views and animals. Looking forward to buying some fresh meat from here soon.
