Come Free Range With Us

Welcome to Drovers Rest, our 16th Century Organic Farm, near Hay-on-Wye, Herefordshire. In 2010, we left the corporate world of London to buy a farm and start a business in the sticks, and we love it. We are South African and have created a touch of Africa in the Hills. Now there’s no need to go all the way to the plains of the Savannah to go on Safari or to experience posh living in Safari tents. We have it all here.

With a passion for wildlife, doing our bit for the planet and food grown the proper way, our mission is to re-wild our land, ourselves and to give you a taste of it too. We hope you love what we have created.

We’re super dog friendly and are tucked away at the foothills of the Black Mountains in the Golden Valley in Herefordshire, right on the border of Wales surrounded by 200 acres of fields, forest and farm with a bubbling brook running through, off the beaten track yet only a stones throw from our village Hay on wye, famous for it’s Literary Festival and book shops, where culture and coffee shops await. That’s if you can tear yourself away from the farm!
