About Ardros Farm

Our names are Ewan and Emma, and we farm 680 acres on the stunning Isle of Bute in Scotland.

Our story began in Northumberland when emma won the tenancy for Fallowlees farm at the age of 23. Fallowlees was notable for its remote location and lack of any facilities!

Emma met Ewan, a firefighter, four years later and they married in 2018, their son Len joined them in 2019.

Together we were sucessful in securing the tenancy of Ardros farm on the Isle of Bute in 2021.

We hope to make Ardros farm into the first Organic farm on the island, where we will rear and sell quality scotch lamb and beef.

Our passion is training sheepdogs, both for sale and for competition. We have been lucky enough to have broken two world records at auction for dogs we have sold.

We have also recently set up a Patreon page where we hope to help out anyone with a sheepdog with training videos.
