We were very pleased to welcome popular content creator, country life-style and home guru Charlie Gray to the Farm and Fishery in April. Here is the link to her you tube vlog if you’d like to see an independent review of a stay at Chigborough. Charlie and her family had a fly fishing lesson with Tim Joyce, stayed in Birdsong Camp, sampled Lambton and Jackson smoked Salmon and dined in The Farm Cafe.
