Andrew,
Ellie,
Tom,
Natasha
and
Dan
welcome
you
to
Little
Ropers
Farm.
We
are
a
small,
family
run,
100
acre
mixed
farm
in
the
Stour
Valley:
a
small
oasis
in
the
midst
of
much
larger
arable
holdings.
The
farm
is
currently
being
farmed
by
the
3rd
generation
of
the
Mead
family,
having
owned
the
farm since 1950.
We
run
a
small
beef
herd
of
predominantly
Aberdeen
Angus
cattle.
The
cattle
spend
the
spring
and
summer
roaming
the
grassland
in
the
sunshine.
When
the
weather
starts
to
turn
we
bring
them
back
to
the
yards
for
winter
to
keep
warm
and
dry.
They
are
fed
a
grass
based
diet
year
round,
with
the
young-stock
additionally
fed
Barley
grains
for
an
increased
protein
intake;
this
is
grown
and
crimped
on
farm
allowing
us
to
be
fully
self-sufficient
with
our
feed.
We
are
proud
members
of
the
British
Red
Tractor
Farm
Assurance
Scheme,
ensuring
our
livestock
are
reared
to
one
of
the
very
best
welfare
standards
in
the
world. Calving season is usually January to April so if you are camping at that time you may be lucky to see a new born calf!
The
campsite
at
Little
Ropers
started
in
2015
after
Ellie
hosted
some
of
her
friends
in
the
woodland.
Their
enjoyment
and
positivity
for
this
small
piece
of
Suffolk
Countryside
sparked
the
idea to share the area with the public as an alternative campsite.
With
limited
facilities
on
site
we
promote
‘back
to
basics’
and
‘nearly
wild’
camping;
a
place
to
escape the stresses of modern life.
We
have
since
grown
the
site
to
include
a
few
pitches
on
the
meadow
next
to
the
woodland
and
added
additional
amenities
such
as
the
campsite
shop
and
the
use
of
the
showers
back
at
the
farm; whilst retaining the intimate feel of the site.
We enjoy welcoming back returning campers year on year and often multiple times a year!
