How quickly does a fire take hold? The answer is shocking in these tinder box conditions. Luckily an observant eye spotted a fire in the field on the estate. Farmers worked alongside Bedfordshire Fire and Rescue to quickly bring it under control and extinguish. Thankfully, damage was limited and the last picture shows the clean up as it is now. We thank members of the public for calling it in, and the quick work of everyone involved in putting it out. ** if you see a fire do not assume somebody else has reported it - call the fire service with the details **

A Rare Friday Opening at the Walled Garden!

This Friday, we’re delighted to be opening the Walled Garden for a very special National Garden Scheme (NGS) Open Day – and it’s a rare opportunity, as the garden is not usually open on Fridays!

By visiting, you’ll not only enjoy the beauty and tranquillity of the garden, but you’ll also be supporting an incredible cause. Since 1927, the National Garden Scheme has donated almost £78 million to nursing, health and garden charities, including organisations such as Macmillan Cancer Support, Marie Curie, Hospice UK and Parkinson’s UK. In 2025 alone, the NGS donated over £3.8 million to its beneficiary charities, helping thousands of people across the UK.

Friday
11:00am – 3:00pm
Adults: £7 | Children: FREE

Enjoy delicious light refreshments served inside the garden while you soak up the atmosphere.

🍽Why not make a day of it? Lunch can be booked at the Woodyard Brasserie by calling 01582 879862.

The last of the 2026 harvest came off the field late last night. The yard finally fell quiet in the small hours, as combines were parked, trailers emptied for the last time, and another British summer’s work drew to its close.
Months of early mornings, late nights, broken machinery, changing weather, careful judgement and unwavering determination have brought another harvest safely home.
There is something timeless about this moment. Harvest reminds us that each generation has celebrated this time of year in their own way.
Today we thank everyone involved in our successful harvest - Farmer Sid, Clive, Pat, Lottie, Amelia, Bradley, Neil, Edward and William. From the combine mechanics to the haulage companies, the agronomists to the seed supplier. It’s a wrap! Another harvest complete. The work is done … for now!

Harvest is the reward for months of dedication, but drought and prolonged hot weather can threaten crops at the most critical time of the season. Extreme conditions can reduce yields, impact crop quality, and challenge the future of sustainable farming. Recent figures show that fire and rescue services in England attended 175,918 fires in 2025, a 29% increase on the previous year, with outdoor fires rising sharply during hot, dry conditions. These statistics highlight just how vulnerable the countryside becomes during harvest.
If you see a fire on or near farmland, don’t assume someone else has reported it. Call 999 immediately and ask for the Fire & Rescue Service. Provide the exact location if possible, keep a safe distance, and never attempt to tackle a large field or crop fire yourself. Avoid blocking access tracks or gateways, as these are vital routes for emergency vehicles and farm machinery.
