As a parent and grandparent I feel that it is important that children are fed good wholesome food which is free of additives that can affect behaviour. This is one of the reasons that I am writing this review.
Besshill farm shop is in Arlington approximately 10 miles from Barnstaple, the farm is easy to find and has ample car parking.
Inside the shop is spotless and all varieties of meat are on display.
The beef and pork is reared on the farm
, the free range poultry.is locally sourced.
We have always found the staff to be extremely helpful, knowledgeable and friendly, the meat tastes like it used to ( before we all got used to buying our meat from a supermarket) plus as there are no waste bits to remove before cooking it is excellent value for money.
The joints that we buy are hung for at least 4 weeks allowing them to mature.
As an animal lover the welfare of the animal is just as important as the taste and I know that the meat sold here comes from animals which have been reared well.
Besshill also sell a wide range of dairy products and free range eggs all of which are on display.
Once customers have visited and purchased from Besshill farm shop I know that they will return time and time again, as we have.
Besshill offer a national and local delivery service and sell products at many farmers markets.
Contact the farm shop on 01271 850311 or by the website www.besshillfarmshop-barnstaple.co.uk

You can’t beat a good farm shop and this one looks very good, lovely to know the animals are well cared for and in return you get really good meat. This is a really good advert for them .
Oh I adore farm shops. So much quality under one roof!

We have farm shops a dozen where I live….love them/hate them not sure? I do love a good farm shop for its atmosphere or good old coffee shop. I like the local produce just hate the prices tbh. This one looks good but is it good value for money?
#tweenteensbeyond
It most certainly is great value for money!
Oh that’s good. X
Oh I do miss my English sausages and those look like beauties. Thank you for linking up to #PointShoot 📸
All that beautiful meat looks lovely X #pointshoot
#thesatsesh so true. I think i need to start thinking more about where our food comes from and the ethics behind it, its on my ‘to do 2018’ list.
Much better than buying from a supermarket. #mg
This looks like a great farm shop. We don’t shop local anywhere near as much as I’d like to. #fortheloveofblog
OOH, that place looks really yummy. What a wonderful place to shop. #fortheloveofblog

Sounds like a brilliant local farm shop, we often pop to ones in our local area too #fortheloveofBLOG
The pictures are making me hungry Karen! I love a farm shop and that meat certainly looks good. Thanks for sharing with #tweensteensbeyond and have a wonderful Christmas
We don’t have a farm shop nearby but you can’t beat the meat from a butcher for quality and we have a couple of really good ones near us. This shop looks great. Hope you had a great Christmas with your family Karen. #TweensTeensBeyond
Looks amazing. We have one like this near us. Amazing food, and the staff are great too. Hope you had a good Christmas x #tweensteensbeyond
One of my resolutions is to source my food locally and eat more free-range and organic. This has inspired me – great review. Thank you so much for sharing your posts with #TweensTeensBeyond in 2017 and looking forward to reading more in 2018. x
