Introduction (whole)
West Burrow Farm and Part Blagrove Farm together form a substantial commercial agricultural unit, extending to approximately 326.55 acres of productive pasture land, in a well-regarded farming area. Offered for sale as a whole or in separate lots, the holding presents a rare opportunity to acquire a sizeable, ring-fenced working farm with extensive infrastructure, two dwellings (both subject to Agricultural Occupancy Conditions), and significant potential for ongoing dairy and livestock operations or diversification (subject to any necessary consents).

Overview (whole)
The farm has been operated as a commercial dairy and beef unit, with the vendors currently milking in excess of 200 cows, alongside 100 dairy followers and about 100 beef cattle. The farm is offered for sale following the sad passing of Mr Steve Perry, and the family's preference would be a "lock, stock and barrel" sale, although they are open to selling the property assets separately if necessary.

The holding includes two principal farmsteads - West Burrow Farm and Blagrove Farm - each with its own comprehensive range of agricultural buildings and independent accesses. The farms have been merged to create a cohesive and efficient unit with good internal access and infrastructure, ideal for a range of intensive livestock or mixed farming operations.
The holding extends in total to about 326.55 acres, and is offered for sale as a whole or in a number of lots, as detailed within these sale particulars.

Situation

West Burrow and Blagrove Farms are situated in a highly accessible yet peaceful rural position close to the village of East Worlington, in the heart of Devon farming country. The holding lies within a well-regarded agricultural area, characterised by productive pastureland, gently undulating topography, and a long-established farming community.

Positioned approximately 11 miles west of Crediton, the farm benefits from excellent local infrastructure, with the nearby A377 providing straightforward access to the regional transport network. The market towns of Tiverton, South Molton, and Crediton all offer agricultural suppliers, and a full range of services catering to the rural and farming economy.

The A361 North Devon Link Road is within easy reach, providing access to the M5 motorway at Junction 27, while Tiverton Parkway railway station offers regular mainline services to London Paddington—making the location practical for both business operations and haulage.
The region supports a wide range of farming enterprises including livestock, dairying, arable and mixed units. The area is also well served by agricultural contractors, merchants, and professional services, including the highly regarded Sedgemoor Auction Centre, and further markets at Exeter and South Molton, all within manageable driving distance.

In summary, the holding occupies a strategic and desirable location for commercial agricultural use, offering the rare combination of rural seclusion, operational efficiency, and access to key farming infrastructure across the South West.
