Company information

The original Bucklawren Manor was mentioned in the Domesday Book. At that time it belonged to Launceston Priory and during that time is was used as a Nunnery. In 1540 it was seized by Henry VIII and then came under the ownership of the Duchy of Cornwall. The present farmhouse was built in 1839 by the Duchy. In the late 1930’s the farm was purchased by the Great Metropolitan Railways who intended to put a railway through to Looe and build a Golf Course. Then came the Second World War and the plans were dropped and the farm went into private ownership. The 400 acre farm is run commercially and supports a beef herd and 220 acres of arable cropping. Crops currently being grown are wheat, barley, oats and rape.
