Foxfield Farm, BR2
Foxfield Farm is a rare find when located so close to London. In the borough of Bromley, on the very edge of London’s surburbia, the farm’s 120 acres are set in a tranquil spot with stunning far-reaching views of the countryside. Tucked away down a country lane, the valley location offers both hilly and gently undulating landscapes, with a wide mix of grass fields and paddocks, as well as a vast field planted with cereal crops. Over 10 acres of woodland also feature, with a range of copse areas, an orchard and a large pond surrounded by long grassy meadows with wild flowers.
Animal life on location is varied: a livery yard is home to several horses and a charming stable block, whilst a herd of Dexter cattle graze the outlying fields, and chicken and ducks also abide here.
Other bonus features to highlight include a variety of old Landrovers, an apiary for bees, an impressive modern main house encased in cor-ten steel, as well as two self-catering options, where up to 10 people can stay overnight.
