The cottages are owned and run by D.Dalton and Son Limited, a family run farming company. We have lived and farmed in Dorset for four generations. I am married to a member of the fourth generation, Sam (the arable farm manager) and we live at Manor Farm with our two children, Herbie (age 6) and Pippa (age 4) who are members of the ever increasing fifth generation. We also have naughty terrier called Sprout and a mad spaniel called Margot.
The company comprises four separate working farms being two dairies, one equestrian/solar farm and this arable farm.
Here at Manor Farm, Pimperne we grow wheat, barley and oil seed rape. You may well see tractors going about their work in the fields and during July and August the combine harvester is at work bringing in the crops from the fields.
We absolutely love what we do here on the farm and are always happy to answer any questions or talk about the farm so please do ask!
