Harvest
Despite dreadful weather throughout August, Newbottle Estate has managed to harvest all their crops. This was achieved as we have the latest equipment and extra labour capacity as a result of the formation of NDR Arable. This joint venture has streamlined our operations and has meant that in this most difficult of years we have managed to get all our crops harvested.
Autumn Calving
We are now well into Autumn calving. It is lovely to see the calves running around in the fields.
Holiday Cottage
Are you looking for short term accomodation? The Estate has a basic two bedroom barn conversion at Forceleap Farm, which is available to rent for short periods. This might be ideal for a holiday, to house friends at busy times or as accomodation when your house is being renovated or you have a gap whilst moving.
Weekly rate - £125.00
(Longer periods by negotiation)
For more information please contact the Estate Office.
Wool
Are you a spinner or weaver and require some fleece? We have a small flock of rare breed sheep. The Cotswold breed is famous for the quality of their fleece. We are very happy to sell single fleeces to small scale spinners and weavers. If you are interested please contact the Estate Office.
Walking and Riding
It is lovely to see people enjoying themselves out walking and riding but can we please ask you to obey the countryside code especially remembering to please:
- Keep your dogs on a lead especially around livestock.
- Close all gates.
- Take your litter home.
