Spring marks the farm’s busiest season, and arguably, its most beautiful. The land has started to stir, prompting motions of foraging, planting and preparing. It is also when we open our doors to guests looking to do the same: to reawaken after winter, rejuvenating and reconnecting in a way that honours our surroundings, introduces you to the magic of our local communities and lets them show you a side of Devon most never see.

As Fowlescombe's first-ever Christmas guests make their way to the farm, we're sharing our guide to spending the season here in Devon.

The gardens at Fowlescombe Farm are a working landscape, where menus take shape and a mille-feuille of ecosystems thrive.

Things have taken root and started to grow in the weeks since we opened the doors to Fowlescombe Farm. 

The gardens at Fowlescombe aren’t for backdrop only, but a working part of our ecosystem. This British Flowers Week, we’re shining a light on what we grow, how and for whom.

Summer brings new beginnings to the farm and we are delighted to share one of the most exciting. On the 1st July 2025, we welcome Elly Wentworth as our executiv

When our family took on Fowlescombe Farm in 2018, we inherited a legacy of organic farming 20 years in the making. As its new custodians, our role was one of restoration and evolution, rather than reinvention. Our rural luxury retreat signals an exciting new chapter for Fowlescombe, but the farm remains the heart of the story and the foundation on which everything else rests.

Food to us means more than sustenance. It is a story, an affair to be shared, a celebration of our land and its bounty. It plays a starring role in time spent at Fowlescombe Farm, where our guests are encouraged to slip into the slower pace of Devon life, discovering the beauty of British farming and satisfaction of eating produce grown and raised just a few steps away.

The Fowlescombe Farm ethos rests on three pillars: regeneration, food and a new kind of light-touch luxury. Regeneration, not only in the soil but in the body and the mind. Food, because we adore it, and because we believe it connects everything. And a gentler vision of luxury that finds its feet in authenticity and care, rather than unnecessary excess.
