A Working Farm

The moat with arable land beyond We are a working farm,
part of which is arable, growing crops
under wide open East Anglian skies, . . .
. . and we have livestock. Lambing time


To the front of the house is the moat,
popular with our Aylesbury ducks.
Front of Rye Farm

Beyond the moat, the farmhouse looks out over Abberton Reservoir. This 1200 acre Reservoir is a Wetland of International Importance, a Site of Special Scientific Interest, a Special Protection Area, and one of the most important wildfowl havens in Europe. Some of the wildfowl seem to prefer the facilities we offer at Rye Farm!
