My partner and I moved to Westmill Farm in November 2024 on a 20yr FBT, the farm sits on the edge of the Chiltern Hills in Hertfordshire and extends to around 120acres.

We moved with our existing flock of pedigree Shetland sheep and have since started a flock of North Country Mules. Our Shetland lambs are grass fed and sold at around 10months direct to the consumer through lamb boxes. 

Our initial focus has been on replacing fencing and stock-proofing the farm, arable fields have been drilled with a grass ley and we plan to reinstate historic field boundaries to maximise grazing rotation whilst offering environmental benefits.

Farm diversification currently includes a livery yard with plans to open a holiday let in Spring 2026. We are also involved in delivering a BNG project on the farm in partnership with the landlord.
