This was our first time, our first experience of South Orsmby / Massingbird Mundy. So we'll forget for a moment the clandestine pickup, our 'lost' order, and the product labelling, this is by far THE BEST turkey we have ever eaten!! Moist, succulent, full-on flavour, so much so that you feel guilty for eating it when it's not Christmas Day. There's a decent layer of fat under the skin of the breast that really keeps the meat moist during roasting. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Now, we did click and collect and had instructions for a 2-hour period 2 weeks hence, from Wood Farm. Beware, there's no South Ormsby or other appropriate signage, you just need to turn into "Wood Farm Stack Yard" where a couple of people emerge from a van parked there and wander off to the buildings to get your produce. All well and good (and another first-timer showed up as we were leaving, equally as confused), until the people said there was no turkey crown we'd ordered, but held up 2 frozen breasts they'd found. Would that be okay? Although we'd been looking forward to the bones to make stock, we took the breasts. We were expecting fresh turkey, but they were frozen, packed as Lincoln Red (beef?) in February 2023, but saying Turkey. No problem, we'll go with it! The picture shows a still-frozen breast, and the last piece of the first one we couldn't help devouring Would we order again? Absolutely!

Hello, Thank you very much for your detailed review. We have recently had some changes within the click and collect department and our staff were doing training on the day so I am very sorry if this was not as efficient as you had expected. We are currently looking at ways to improve this service and make it more enjoyable by our customers. We have taken your comments into consideration and included 'frozen' in all product description to avoid future confusion. We are also now looking at more way in which we can improve this experience. I hope that your next visit will be a much easier one and we hope to see you again soon!

I attended the Wolds Walking Festival which was based at the South Ormsby Estate this year. It is the second event that I have attended there and I can only describe it as a wonderful part of Lincolnshire. Unfortunately, although I would love to volunteer to help on the estate, it is too far for me to travel by car on a regular basis. However, I purchased some soaps as Christmas presents for my friends, so they may ask for more next year !!

I love what they are doing to increase biodiversity. Have been on a few walks and it's looking really lovely. Excited to see the improvements with the pond/lake. Will maybe volunteer next year.

Didn't realise the shelf life of the soap would be so short (03/01/24). If this is why it was at sale price then that should have been stated in the advertisement for the product.

Hi Michael, Thank you for your review, we appreciate all feedback from our customers. The reason for our soap having a much shorter shelf life in comparison to large companies where soap lasts 2-3 years, is because our soap does not include the preservatives/chemicals that the large companies use to prolong them. Shelf life of our soap from production is 11 month maximum. We will aim to be more clear on this in the future.

Exceptional service and amazing gin! Prompt to respond to any queries and extremely helpful. The gin is amazing and was perfect as a gift to my new Husband. We are now both officially Burrell's so the Burrell Gin was the perfect gift. Thank you so much South Ormsby Estate. I cannot recommend your company, service and gin enough!

So special to have this wonderful purveyor of top quality organic produce close to Louth. The click and collect process is a little daunting the first time, however the adventure into the Wolds was so worth it and the turkey is delicious. Here’s a picture of the spot to collect. Looking forward to trying the beef when it is in stock. Thank you!

South Ormsby Organic Turkey is THE BEST we have ever tasted. It is lovely and moist & full of flavour. It is great to know they have been ethically farmed & given the best possible care.

We love following the work to redevelop the estate and have visited several times. If you love nature, are concerned about the environmental impact of farming, or just want a great walk in gorgeous countryside (loos & coffee available on site), this is the place for you.

Lovely location, well worth a visit - we visited to collect a poultry order, enjoyed a lovely dog walk across the estate and then picked up a free cup of coffee at the sheep dip.

Collected a slow roasting joint from South Ormsby - beautiful piece of brisket. Cooked slowly on a bed of vegetables. The meat was so tender.

I can't praise you enough for the mix up for collecting my products... I'd read the email wrong (this is why I'm meant to have my glasses on!) but it wasn't too much trouble for yourselves and you sorted me out straight away rather than us having to come back. Absolutely excellent service.

Terrific produce, wonderful people and some truly memorable walks to enjoy. Not tried the turkey yet but if it's anything like the beef it will no doubt be amazing.

I recently (2 days ago) bought 2 beef boxes and 1 offal box along with a lone chicken. It's the chicken i'm going to review. The meat is excellent, i've had it before and suggest you try it for yourself. By the way, the packaging is excellent. Anyway to the chicken. I've bought farm-raised chickens from a supermarket before and thought they are better than the ordinary ones. We had the Ormsby bird for Sunday lunch and i must say the taste and texture is a cut above. It is meaty and full of flavour off the legs, and the breast isn't soft and pliable but has a full meaty flavour. I am using the carcase to make stock for chicken soup to use up all of the meat as i don't like waste! If you haven't ventured into the world of properly farmed meat because of cost i recommend you try it once. Whilst i find you can't always get it when you want it, it's worth waiting for. Thumbs up from me to South Ormsby Estate.

Quite apart from its excellent, biodiversity-friendly farm products, South Ormsby Estate is well worth a visit for its own sake, located as it is in one of the most scenic parts of the Lincolnshire Wolds. In addition to regular organised events, you have a choice of short and long walks taking in the historic landscape park, pasture and arable land and woodland, as well as offering views of the Hall. The walks leaflets are available on-site at certain times, or they can be downloaded in advance from the estate's website. And there is a handy compost toilet in the parking area too....
