The extensive farmland and woodland on the Estate are managed using traditional farming techniques and produce some of the country’s best rare breed speciality meats. At the centre of the Estate is the village of Cranborne which boasts a true village shop, Cranborne Stores, selling a comprehensive range of the Estate speciality meats and a mouth-watering selection of delicatessen items such as English cheeses, home-made pâtés, pies and terrines alongside the usual newspapers and sundry items. The Stores also offers a mail order service taking the taste of Cranborne meats anywhere in the UK mainland.
Adjacent to the village is Cranborne Manor set in beautiful gardens. The Manor is the Dorset home of Viscount Cranborne, the eldest son of the 7th Marquess of Salisbury. The gardens are open once a week in the Spring and Summer for the public to enjoy and the Cranborne Manor Garden Centre, specialising in old fashioned roses, clematis and all the best plants for a country garden, is open every day. Mary’s Tearoom offers Garden Centre visitors the chance to taste delicious home-made food including the speciality meats produced on the Estate.
