Farming with Nature


Sustainable agritourism – working for nature

Crake Trees Manor is a traditional Westmorland holding that is made up of three small farms brought together in the 1960’s.

Flocks of birds lift up over the honey coloured farm.

We farm in an environmentally sensitive way, working to conservation standards. Being part of the Higher level Stewardship Scheme means we farm within European rules, which encourages wildlife to flourish and the soil structure to stay healthy.

We are creative and innovative, and try to farm with nature rather than against it. Local wildlife is encouraged through a wide range of projects. Our wetland project will help wildlife and also reduce flooding downstream.

The farm has a series of footpaths that allow visitors to see what is going on each season.
