Dyke Croft Farm is situated just outside of Ravenglass on the West
Coast of Cumbria in The Lake District.Farmed by Robert & Ann
Thornton, the farm specialises in beef and sheep.
We have diversified in
latter years into tourism. We have two Holiday Cottages, one sleeping
8 the other 4. They are both equipped to a high standard and are
open all year round.They are ideal for holidaymakers requiring a
quiet rural location with easy access to wonderful scenery and countryside
walks. Please click here
to view our holiday cottages.
The farm is predominantly
a hill farm in the Lake District. Most of the land is land falls
in a strip between the Western fells and coast. The lower land has
better producing fields, which are used to provide fodder for the
farm and to fatten the stock.
The farm business does
some subcontracting to neighbouring farms.We have an umbilical cord
and injector system for spreading farm slurry, a self propelled
harvester and other machinery available for hire.
Farm walks and tours can
be arranged for visiting parties (groups up to 40). Please contact
us for further details.
The Farm is an hour from
Junction 36 on the M6 (Kendal exit) or an hour and a half from Carlisle.
