Haymans Farm is a beautiful Wealden pasture farm situated near to the hamlet of Shillinglee in West Sussex.
It comprises 152 acres of lowland grassland and lies adjacent to Chiddingfold Forest,
a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) for butterflies.
It is a family farm where for many years the land was used for sheep grazing and haymaking.
More recently it has become home to a small herd of pasture-fed White Park cattle and a growing market garden.
Slightly off the beaten track, it is an absolute haven for wildlife and has a rich diversity of animal and plant species.
