Award winning farming! The Mather family were recently awarded British Limousin national
commercial herd champion by the national Limousin society in celebration of their 50th
anniversary, testament to the high standards of welfare they maintain at Besshill.
All our beef is from Besshill’s own suckler cows, where the calves are reared by their mums
for at least the first nine months of their life. They are fed mainly on our own pasture and
silage, alongside Harpers ‘Planet range’ of feed (which doesn’t contain palm oil or soya), the
finished on barley grown by the Cook family at Pickwell Barton, Georgeham.
All our lamb is from Besshill’s own flock of Texel cross ewes and Kerry Hill ewes, all of which
are grass fed.
All of our meat is prepared on site by our expert butchers. We pride ourselves on putting out
only product of the highest quality. We also stock a wide variety of locally sourced goods
including bread, jams, chutneys, ciders, ales and one of our favourites, Farmer Toms ice
cream!
Homemade pasties – Made by hand on site following a traditional recipe and packed with our
home reared beef, we promise you won’t find better! We also make a traditional vegetable
pasty (the same recipe minus the meat) and sausage rolls using our fresh sausage meat.
