Spot House Farm
Warehorne, Kent
Spot House Farm sits on the northern edge of the Romney Marsh in Warehorne, Kent - a stone's throw from the Saxon Shoreline, on ancient permanent pasture that has been farmed for many hundreds of years. The family have lived here for over thirty years, and the farm today is a pastoral and livestock operation of quiet conviction: a pedigree Sussex cattle herd, a mixed flock of Texel and Romney sheep and a farmyard full of Oxford Sandy and Black pigs, chickens, geese and guinea fowl. The Oxford Sandy and Black is one of Britain's oldest and rarest native pig breeds (once known as the Plum Pudding pig) with a temperament as good as its flavour and an instinct for rooting through woodland that suits this landscape perfectly. At Spot House they are reared for pork, bacon and sausages. The farmyard hens produce the eggs that arrive as a welcome gift for glamping guests. The land itself is taken as seriously as the livestock: the permanent pasture is left rich and diverse, providing habitat for great crested and smooth newts, toads, frogs and a plethora of butterflies, moths and invertebrates. Nightingales return to Calves Lodge wood each early summer to hatch their young and their song is one of the things guests most frequently mention.
