Hazel and discuss your requirements
Long before Beatrix Potter adopted the Herdwick sheep, they roamed freely over the Lakeland landscape and to this day enjoy a full life slowly growing on the windswept fells of Borrowdale. Each young sheep takes longer to mature; yielding leaner, sweeter meat that is a 'foodies' delight. If you have never tasted Herdwick meat, you're in for a real treat. There is nothing quite like your first taste of this quality product.



It takes time to produce such a taste experience, and in his desire to produce the best quality product for his customers, that is what Joseph Relph has given. The rich flavour of this tender Lakeland delicacy is definitely worth the wait, and being high in OMEGA 3, its good for you, so you can have your meat and eat it!. The result of Joe's commitment and skill is now available to you direct from the farm. Call into our tearoom and take some home with you.

Ring or email us (directly from here) and Hazel will be happy to advise on the cuts that will suit you best. If you have a preference for a special cut, for example medallions, we can supply these to order. Please ring for availability.

The meat in our hamper is born and bred in Borrowdale. At it's prime we butcher and hang it, maturing it for longer to enhance flavour and tenderness. Our vaccum packs keeps meat fresh and tender without the addition of any preservitives or artificial ingredients, ensuring you only enjoy the true taste of our meat. With full traceability from fell to fork, you can enjoy meat 'like it use to be' - meat worthy of its origins. You can either collect your meats from our tea room or, for a small extra charge, have your meat delivered to your door within 24 hours, in one of our hampers. Please see the Hamper page on this site.
