Five Centuries of
Family Farming
Over 500 years and 27 generations of farming in Somerset.
Wholesale EnquiriesAcross 27 generations
From 1525 to today, North Widcombe Farm has remained in the hands of the same family.
For 27 generations, the estate has been shaped by the rhythms of the countryside, a commitment to thoughtful farming, and a belief that exceptional dairy begins long before the bottle.
Today, we remain a family-run business, rooted in the same values that have guided the estate for centuries.
Though much has changed over the years, our purpose remains unchanged:
- Care for our herd
- Care for our land
- Produce premium dairy without compromise
Every bottle reflects generations of farming knowledge, respect for the countryside, and a commitment to quality that continues to define The Widcombe Estate today.
Somerset is in everything we do
Our pastures are rich in biodiversity and framed by hedgerows, lakes and ancient trees — a landscape that has sustained both wildlife and farming for centuries.
We work with the seasons, allowing nature to guide the way we farm. The result is a thriving environment where our cows can graze freely, our pastures can flourish, and the countryside can continue to thrive for generations to come.
For us, caring for the land is not simply part of the process; it is the foundation of everything we produce.
Pure. Unhomogenised. Full of taste & texture.
We gently pasteurise our milk and leave it unhomogenised, allowing the cream to rise naturally to the surface and preserving the qualities that make it truly distinctive.
Rather than altering what nature provides, we take a considered approach that celebrates flavour, texture and authenticity.
The result is milk that is naturally creamy, beautifully full of flavour, and crafted to be enjoyed exactly as nature intended.
