Built on Experience and Quality Breeding
A family-run farm focused on genetics, sustainability, and livestock care.
About Us
Our farm is located on the beautiful Furness Peninsula in Cumbria, Northern England — a coastal landscape known for its rich soils, clean air, and naturally productive grassland. This environment provides the perfect foundation for our herd of Pedigree Parthenaise cattle, who graze our pastures throughout the growing season and are housed during winter as part of our carefully managed spring-calving system.
We operate as a closed herd, maintaining high welfare, strict biosecurity, and complete genetic integrity. Every animal is raised with attention, respect, and purpose. From birth to maturity, our cattle are monitored closely for structural correctness, temperament, growth efficiency, and the exceptional carcass traits that define the Parthenaise breed.
Over the years, our breeding programme has combined proven French bloodlines with thoughtful UK-based selection. The result is a herd known for consistency, fertility, and performance — cattle that thrive in modern beef systems and deliver predictable, profitable results for breeders.
From this foundation, we offer a range of high-quality genetics:
Young Pedigree Parthenaise Bulls Well-grown, grass-reared, and selected for conformation, docility, and performance.
High-Fertility Semen Straws Collected from proven sires and suitable for both UK and international use.
Worldwide-Exportable Bovine Embryos Produced from our top cows and fully compliant with global export protocols, giving breeders around the world access to elite Parthenaise genetics.
As our herd continues to expand, Pedigree Parthenaise heifers will also be available in the future, offering breeders the opportunity to strengthen their female lines with cattle known for fertility, longevity, and maternal strength.
At the heart of our work is a simple belief: great cattle start with great genetics. Whether you are looking to introduce new bloodlines, improve maternal traits, or enhance carcass yield, our breeding programme is designed to give you confidence in every purchase — and results you can see in your herd.
