The 617ha of arable land was purchased in 2021 and has seen the slow transition away from traditional agriculture with the final harvest being taken in 2024 and is now in the process of allowing natural regeneration to take place.
Meeting Facilities
Over the last three years, Boothby Wildland have been staggering Boothby's retreat from arable farming, gradually removing fields from intensive cereal production. Their last harvest was in September 2024.
The farm was part of a well managed agri-environment scheme in the previous decade – meaning that around the edges are small species-rich hotspots of nature waiting to burst out and colonise the depleted monoculture arable fields. Together with the variable soil types, the degraded West Glen river, and adjacent ancient woodland, this makes Boothby a wonderful opportunity for nature recovery.
opening times
The Wildland is always open.
Paid guided tours are available at times throughout the year so if you wish to gain a more in depth understanding of the wildland and its wildlife look to book a guided tour.
