Foxglove Farm belongs to Simon and Kathe, both from farming backgrounds as far back as their grandparents on both sides. Simon first farmed the land at Foxglove as a teenager after completing agricultural college, later becoming a tenant farmer before purchasing the farm in the late 1990s. Foxglove is a traditional working farm with sheep, lambs, chickens, cattle, calves and pigs. The farm is situated next to Inkpen Common nature reserve, a site of special scientific interest.

Further afield there are walks, bike rides and boat trips along the nearby Kennet and Avon Canal. Marlborough and Hungerford, with its plethora of antique shops are a short drive away.
