Little Sutton Farm is a traditional mixed family run farm growing crops and rearing sheep.
With the farm situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty the farm has been committed to the Shropshire Hills Environmentally Sensitive Areas Scheme since it started in 1994. This is a management agreement designed to protect and enhance the rural landscape. On our farm over 10 kms of hedgerows have been planted or restored and two wildlife pools have been created, further improving the diversity of wildlife on the farm.
Ludlow
Meadow Barn is situated just 5 miles north of the historic town of Ludlow. The castle dominates this medieval market town, often regarded as the finest small town in England. Ludlow cannot fail to impress with its timbered buildings, fine Georgian houses and its famous restaurants. In 2006 Ludlow was voted Britain’s Best Town, beating such picturesque places as Lincoln, York, St Ives and Edinburgh. The castle forms the breathtaking backdrop to Ludlow Festivals flagship outdoor Shakespeare play and the newer Food and Drink Festival, both of which attract visitors from across the world. More info
