Edgewater Farm, ME1

Edgewater Farm spans 1,000 acres in the Medway Valley’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. A  mixed arable and livestock farm, it offers rolling grassland, fertile arable fields, and herds of beef cattle. The River Medway borders the farm, giving direct access to water and picturesque views along the footpath.

The landscape is open and versatile, with spinneys and natural buffer planting. The majority of the ground is wide, open farmland, perfect for large-scale rural backdrops. Hard farm tracks cross the land, ensuring reliable vehicle access across much of the site.

At the heart of the farm sits a modern, industrial-style farmyard. The main farmhouse is a Grade II listed Queen Anne house, alongside a traditional cottage and newer farm buildings. Together, they offer a variety of architectural looks, from historic to contemporary, in one location.

Edgewater Farm’s scale, variety, and infrastructure make it well-suited for productions of all sizes, whether looking for sweeping farmland, riverside views, or authentic farmyard settings.
