Goldhill Farm, SP7

Goldhill Farm is a 240 acre former dairy farm; the milking parlour is no longer active but is still available for shoots along with the farm’s herd of dairy cows including the delightful Jersey breed. The landscape sweeps across rolling hills of mainly grass fields, parkland, wild flower meadows and ancient woodland.

This traditional Dorset farm features an old farmyard with original stone, timber and brick farm buildings, including a 300 year old threshing barn. The farm has seen more modern additions with its milking parlour and newer barns, providing an array of backdrops and settings. Overlooking the old farmyard sits the period farmhouse with its adjoining gardens and vegetable plot.

Along with the dairy herd, the farm is also home to sheep, chicken, horses and shetland ponies, so there’s plenty of opportunity to shoot with animals here.
