According to its website, the estate is 8800 acres, 2700 acres of woodland/parkland and the remaining 6100 acres is farmland.
A lot of the farm land is tenanted, there are some very good tenant farmers on the estate. There is a large in hand farm that is contract farmed by a local farming family who again do a very good job.
