Fire cooking, bird song, peace, and tranquility await visitors to Chapel House Farm in the wild Welsh Marches of Craswall. Guests can camp in 15 acres of spectacular wildflower meadows, learn about the farm’s ancient White Park cattle and rare breed Large Black pigs, and how its heritage flour, fava beans, and veg are grown in a sustainable and regenerative way. The delicious, naturally produced food and produce can be bought in the farm shop and eaten on special food nights, including Friday evenings, when sourdough pizza, made with the farm’s own flour, is baked in the original farmhouse oven and topped with seasonal and farm-grown and foraged produce. The farm’s 28-day-aged White Park steaks, homemade burgers, and Large Black sausages are cooked over a wood fire on bbq nights in the garden. The food is all naturally reared and grown and enjoyed by locals and visitors to the area who can take away or take a seat in our garden or candlelit stable.
