About us

About Oakleys Farm.

A family-run farm in the heart of the Staffordshire Moorlands. Established 2006.

What started as a working farm has become something much bigger - a busy rural hub bringing together farming, food, events, animal experiences and countryside services from one working farm.

About Oakleys Farm

A family-run farm based at Oakleys Farm, Dilhorne, Staffordshire - where farming, food and community come together.

Established in 2006, the farm has grown into a busy rural hub in the Staffordshire Moorlands, bringing together farming, food, events, animal experiences and practical countryside services from one working farm.

Today, Oakleys Farm is home to a wide range of farm-based businesses, all built around the same values: hard work, quality, community, animal care and a proper love for rural life, and it all comes from here.

Our story

A real working farm.

Oakleys Farm Group was established in 2006 and remains proudly family-run. Based in the beautiful Staffordshire Moorlands, the farm has grown steadily by following a simple approach: work hard, care about the details, and create something useful for local people, families, businesses and visitors.

Every part of Oakleys Farm has developed from life on the farm itself. Our water buffalo are at the heart of the farm's identity, providing premium home-reared buffalo meat through our farm shop and food offering. Our events, animal experiences and rural services have grown naturally around the people, animals and land that make the farm what it is today.

It's not a polished, corporate attraction. It's a real working farm, with real people behind it. That's what gives it its character.
