About

The family are passionate about the Ayrshire cow, and have had great success in cattle shows around the country for many decades. This has led to international recognition with sales of bull Semen across the world where the Hunnington pedigree lines can be seen on the ground across the UK, New Zealand, Canada, and South Africa.

​Our main priority is the welfare and wellbeing of our cattle, taking pride in how healthy and content our cows are. The herd health plan managed with every attention to detail whilst utilizing years of experience is proven effective with lower than average illness and loss of cattle on the farm and over all wellbeing of the heard

Meet the family

Horsepool Farm is a family run dairy farming business.

​The farm was originally founded by Chris and Hazel Window in 1971. They raised two daughters Karen and Lisa whilst building the farm into an internationally recognised elite herd. Lisa has now run the farm since 2017 and is joined by sister Karen and Lisa’s nephew Christopher who is as keen as his grandad to carry on the farms legacy of top quality cattle and maintaining international recognition.

 

Our grass fed milk

The farm has approximately 100 head of cattle who are farmed on 100 acres of farmland. The cattle are pasture fed, out in the fields from April until late November. They are fed from a mixture of grass, silage, and pasture-based feed. We run a twice day milking, all year-round calving system. We have been selling milk directly to the customer for over 20 years. In 2020 we opened the gate and utilised social media to promote our milk and were astonished at the local response. 

The feedback from the new customer base has been incredibly positive and the request for us to continue to supply them with our milk has been heard. We subsequently converted a barn adjacent to our Dairy into a farm shop opened to the public enabling us to continue to provide our customers with the milk they so appreciated.

Once we had the resources to pasteurise the milk we commenced making our delicious milkshakes, a big hit with our customers.

​Additionally, we have filled the shop with produce such as organic honey, ice cream, cheese, cream, pickles and jams, craft beers and spirits all sourced from other farmers and producers in the UK as locally as the quality allows.

Our philosophy for the farm shop is to provide top quality produce from the farmer to the local customer with our signature milk as the main product whilst remaining a family run business.
