Blackmoor Estate LTD

Savour the exceptional quality that defines Blackmoor Estate, Hampshire’s premier destination for authentic fruit harvesting experiences and world-class premium cider production. Our pick-your-own weekends transform ordinary visits into extraordinary adventures, as families explore our carefully cultivated orchards filled with traditional apple varieties like Cox’s Orange Pippin and Bramley alongside heritage pears and sweet cherries that reach perfect ripeness under the expert care of our experienced growers. The estate’s educational approach ensures that every harvesting experience provides valuable insights into fruit characteristics, seasonal growing patterns, and sustainable farming practices that have been developed and refined through more than a century of agricultural expertise. These exceptional fruits undergo transformation into our renowned Gospel Green traditional method ciders, which set new standards for English sparkling beverage production through the application of champagne-making techniques including secondary fermentation in bottle and extended lees aging that creates sophisticated complexity and refined mousse. The proximity of our production facilities to the orchards ensures optimal freshness and quality control throughout every stage of the cider-making process, whilst our innovative Blackmoor Orchards collection explores unique expressions including perry made from estate-grown pears, barrel-aged varieties that develop distinctive flavours through wine cask maturation, and seasonal specialities that capture the authentic character of each harvest, complemented by comprehensive farm shop selections featuring pure apple juices, local honey, and artisanal preserves.
