Eating local tonight 🥩

Can’t go wrong with filling the freezer with meat straight from the farmer and tonight’s is from Kenview Meats

One of the many perks of living where we do is having so many brilliant farmers and producers right on our doorstep.



Locally reared, bought straight from the farm and supporting another local farming family, which we’re always very happy to do.

Doesn’t mince from the farmer (or butchers) just taste soooo much better and have a nicer texture?!

Fancy trying some while you’re staying at Summerhill? We 100% recommend it. Give us a shout before your stay and we can put you in touch with Kenview Meats and even have your order waiting in the lodge when you arrive.

Doesn’t get much more local than that. 🐄

The people have spoken. 🐮

Across Insta and Facebook, Tilly absolutely smashed the 500 likes.

So… to Nick’s delight, we’re going cow shopping! 😂

Beltie farmers, we’re officially on the lookout for three lovely ladies.

Nick says two. Again, we don’t agree.

If you know of any big, fluffy, ridiculously cute Belties looking for a new home in Dumfries & Galloway, let us know!

Sorry Nick.

If you know, you know 😂

Time, distance and quantity all mean something completely different when you live on a farm.

What rural measurement have we missed? 👇🏼

The last couple of days have been spent getting some of our sheep ready for the sale later this month, our big sale of the year.

This year we’ll be taking a selection of homebred pure Summerhill EasyCare gimmers, ewe lambs and tups.

They’re all Bluetongue vaccinated, on the Heptavac P System, wormed and looking great ready for sale 🙌🏼

Nick’s been busy sorting through them and picking out his favourites… and judging by this lot, they’re pretty pleased to have made the cut 🐑

Fingers crossed for a good sale day 🤞

Since moving to Summerhill, we’ve become more and more fascinated by the land and all the little creatures and plants we share it with.

As part of our commitment to looking after it, we recently welcomed Applied Ecology Ltd to the farm to carry out a habitat survey.

We want to understand what we’ve already got here, what we could be doing better and how we can get the farm, our stays and the wildlife all working together.

We’re really excited to see the findings and start putting a proper plan in place for the future.

And how fab are these photos?!
