Isle of Wight Farm
Misbourne Road, Gerrards Cross, SL9 0QD

The farm is still operational, currently under the management of the Gordon family. The farm was reduced in size during the 1980s due to the construction of the M25 across the original fields.

How to get here:

»

Road: A413 - From the A40, turn onto the A413 towards Amersham, and then the road leading to the farm will be on the right, just after the railway bridge. From Amersham, follow the A413 until it becomes the dual carriageway; the road leading to the farm will be on the left, just before the railway bridge. +

Parking Details

The road to the farm is private, but there is a layby on the far side of the A413 opposite.

This location is private and has no or limited access only. The farm is on a private road, but you can walk along it to the fields, and there is also a public footpath that runs through the northern fields.
