Holiday cottage on a farm near Aberporth

Glaneirw Mansion and The Coach House sit in the centre of the estate and are surrounded by 50 acres of both pastureland and long-established woodland. It is from here we farm our herd of Pedigree Dexter Beef, rare breed Mangalitsa pigs and eggs from our free range chickens. We produce free range, pasture fed Dexter beef, whilst the pigs forage in the woodland, both breeds have been carefully selected for the quality of their meat. Dexter’s are the smallest breed of cattle in Europe, originating in Ireland. In the 1930’s the breed was in danger of being wiped out, but has now become increasingly popular for the quality of it’s meat, frequently popular with Professional Chefs. We breed free range Mangalitsa pigs, for our choice of pork, these run freely throughout our woods most of the year. The meat has a distinct marbling giving a rich, flavoursome texture, often considered to be the pork equivalent of Kobe Beef. During the autumn and winter months they are fed on our own apples and pears produced in the estate orchard. Glaneirw also produces an array of both soft fruit and apples and pears, grown as established stock in the both the orchard and Georgian walled garden.
