Netherwood Farm
Situated on a hilltop overlooking idyllic farmlands across Nottingham Road, Kamberg and beyond to the iconic Drakensberg mountains. A contemporary country experience in the heart of the Midlands Meander.
A Working Farm
The hill, and everything on it
Netherwood is, first and last, a farm. Pedigree Angus on the high pastures, Ankole in the valley, ostriches that look up when you walk past, alpacas drifting across the slope at sunset. Behind every wedding, every long lunch, every visit, there is a working farm getting on with its day.

Cattle Heritage
Pedigree Angus, raised on the hill
Three breeds, one hill. Our Angus, Ankole and Nguni cattle have shaped Netherwood for decades, roaming the same pastures that stretch toward Kamberg and the Drakensberg. They are not a backdrop. They are the reason the farm exists.
Once a year, Rob hosts the annual Angus sale at the Bull Ring on the farm. Buyers, breeders and neighbours gather for a day of pedigree cattle and quiet ceremony.
Plan Your Visit
A few notes for visitors
Stop in at the cafe for a long lunch, walk the farm trails, settle in at the Brewery for sundowners. The farm is open to visitors all week, with weddings and private events held on the grounds at the chapel and the Bull Ring.
Netherwood is a working livestock farm and we follow strict biosecurity protocols to protect our herds. If you're planning a visit and have recently been around other livestock, please get in touch and we'll talk you through the visitor guidelines.
