Welcome to Rectory Farm, home of Eyebrook Wild Bird
Feeds.
At
Rectory Farm we take great pride in our ability to
balance the pressures of modern farming and the need
to conserve and enhance the environment. The farm
is part of the ‘DEFRA Countryside Stewardship
Scheme’ the aim of which is to improve the beauty
and diversity of the countryside.
Across the
holding substantial wildlife improvements are being
made through the creation of grass strips within
arable fields, improved hedgerow management and
feeding and nesting sites for farmland birds.
To encompass all of these farming
principles, Rectory farm is an active member of
LEAF
(Linking Environment and Farming).
In acknowledgement of
the conservation work on the farm in November 2007
the farm was awarded the ‘Most Beautiful Farm Award’
granted for conservation, diversification and public
access.
We are pleased to
invite the public to share the farm with us.
The best way to do this is to take advantage of the
permissive footpaths which have been created at
Rectory Farm between the village of Great Easton and
Eyebrook
 Reservoir.
These routes link in with existing public paths and
provide an additional 8km for walking. Excellent
views are possible from vantage points over the
reservoir and across the Welland and Eyebrook
valleys. We will be more than happy to supply you
with a map to accompany you on your walks which
encompass these beautiful views or

Through the months of
May and June we offer guided walks around the farm
to interested clubs and organisations,
