Father and son beekeepers Chris & Adrian Doyle. their bees collect its pollen and Nectar from the blossoms and Hedgerows surrounding Hillside House in Great Shefford situated deep in the Lambourn Valley.
THEIR STORY
They have been fortunate enough to acquire the wonderful setting of Hillside House in Great Shefford.
Set overlooking the Lambourn Valley we wanted to aspire to maximise the land we have available tovthem.
They keep the wonderful pure breed welsh badger faced mountain sheep and also keep rare breed Berkshire pigs.
We have been slowly renovating the gardens and grounds and have built two new rose gardens, a fruit and vegetable raised bed area, renovating an old apple orchard, planted a new tree fruit and nut orchard and built a walled Apiary.
Rest assured there is still plenty to do.
The first thing they aspired to was keeping bees.
They went on the excellent Newbury and District Beekeepers association course and became members of the BBKA and NBKA.
They were very proud to receive the Newbury Beekeepers Colonel Peake Cup along the way and continue to strive to read and seek opinions of all beekeepers to solve the many hurdles that you come across.
They are regular attendees of the association meetings and have just started writing for the local parish magazine.
They are very much still accumulating knowledge on the craft but even in speaking with some of the association members who have 50 years of beekeeping experience you never stop learning.
They are just in the process of building a second Apiary which can accommodate another 12 hives and are actively seeking new sites and hopefully providing more honey varieties and a range of accessories all from their garden and grounds.
