Dairy support plus lease option

This expansive farm totalling 317 hectares is primarily set up for dairy support, but offers potential for other uses including beef finishing and cereals.

Hackthorne Farm is in two titles and after multi-generational family ownership, is offered to the market with two options. The sale of approximately 214 hectares bare land with the option to lease a further approximately 83 hectares.

Both blocks are irrigated using water from the pressurised Barrhill Chertsey Irrigation Scheme via two separate off-takes to two centre pivot irrigators covering approximately 251 hectares.

Developed to cater for dairy support 15 years ago with excellent layout, central lane and stock water system.

This is an opportunity seldom available, with scale and the ability to support another operation.

The versatile soils support a rotation of crops and pastures allowing grazing of cows, young stock plus the security of securing feed and supplements.
