Farm Tours with The Dartmoor Shepherd

We host seasonal farm tours at our farm base in Chagford. Our farm is not usually open to the public so farm tours are a great opportunity to see behind the scenes.

We tailor each tour to suit our guests specific interests. Some of the activities we can offer are:

  • We can take you to pet the animals on the farm; native Dartmoor sheep and lambs, chickens, Tamworth pigs, piglets (seasonally) and sheepdogs.

  • You can help bottle feed the orphan lambs in the spring and early summer.

  • Explore our farm workshop where all our sheepskin products are handmade and delve into the making process of our sheepskin products.

  • We can take you for a walk around the farm and chat about our regenerative farming methods; such as rotational grazing and pasture for life.

  • Help us move our flocks to fresh grass and see our working sheepdog Moss in action.

  • We can then take you up to our shop located in Chagford town square where you can have a look at our woollen and sheepskin products are made on the farm. You will also receive a 10% discount in store that day that day.

We can structure our tours to suit your interests, so if you are inspired by any or all of the activities listed above please email flora@thedartmoorshepherd.co.uk to enquire and arrange your tour.

We charge £20 per person with a minimum charge of £80 per tour. So if there is 1, 2, 3 or 4 of you in your visit, it will cost £80. If there are 5 of you it will be £100 and so on. All tours include tea or coffee and a slice of cake and 10% off our products in store that day.

* Please note all tours will need to be booked in advance.
