Our ambitious plans for the estate include restoring and expanding our orchard and parkland, bringing our woodlands back into active management after decades of neglect, connecting these woodlands by investing in new woodland creation, shifting from monocultural grassland to enhance grassland species diversity, supporting priority animal species to thrive across the local landscape, and much, much more. All of this will be delivered via an interconnected mosaic of habitats, the management of which will be competitively income-generating and offer opportunities for public access and engagement with nature.
We imagine a future where:
Ancient parkland and meadows are alive with wildflowers, butterflies, and birds.
Woodlands are healthy, diverse, and sustainably managed.
Ponds, streams, and wetlands provide vital habitats for amphibians, insects, and rare species.
Visitors can walk, learn, and take inspiration from a landscape that connects heritage with sustainability.
Everything we do supports the wider countryside and future generations.
