The Farm has 2 main orchards – a standard orchard which was replanted in the late 1960′s containing varieties such as Chisel Jersey, Sweet Coppin, Somerset Redstreak, Yarlington Mill, Dabinett, Michelin & Brown Snout and a 400 tree bush orchard planted in 1987 with varieties such as Harry Masters Jersey, Improved Dove, Tremlett’s Bitter, Stembridge Jersey, Sweet Coppin & Dabinett.
When the cider is ready for sale it is stored in oak barrels housed in a rustic stone storehouse with a thatched roof on the side of the farm. Some of the barrels are between 80 and 100 years old.
