Our Apple Varieties

We primarily produce the ‘King of Cookers', The Bramley. These huge bright green apples combine a wonderful sweetness with great natural acidity. When stewed, they break down to foaming perfection - the only filling for a crumble or a pie!

We produce small quantities of dessert apples. These trees are used as pollinators in the Bramley orchards and include Royal Gala and Egremont Russet
