Golland is a mixed organic farm is set in the rolling hills of the Taw Valley, ideally situated between Dartmoor and Exmoor. The farmhouse is of traditional cob and thatch and dates back to the mid 14th Century. The farm is an oasis where indigenous flora and fauna have been allowed to flourish.

You can explore the meadows and woodland, picnic by the small river where wild brown trout are abundant, and if quiet you may even see the otters playing around the brook.
All the animals on the farm are traditional rare breeds.
The Farm has its own water supply straight from the ground and is environmentally aware encouraging all guests to recycle and shop locally.
