Westover Farm was originally the home farm to the Westover Estate, supplying the main estate in the beautiful village of Calbourne. Since we moved to the Island in the late eighties, our family have continued to produce cereal crops for use both in the UK and abroad. Now in its ninth generation of farmers, the farm continues to be run by the family.
Our seven acres pumpkin patch is home to a number of different varieties of pumpkins, squashes and gourds. Pick your own pumpkins straight from the field.
Our stunning lakeside field is the perfect backdrop for your wedding reception or occasion. Enjoy the beautiful countryside views and surrounding lake area.
The agricultural contractors have supported all farming operations across the Island for the last 15 years. From small and ad-hoc jobs to larger jobs and complete operations.
Our seven acre pumpkin patch is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the stunning West Wight countryside. The patch allows visitors to pick your own pumpkins straight from the field where they have been grown. This unique experience provides great entertainment for all ages as people explore the patch at your leisure. Help yourself to a wheelbarrow and enter the pumpkin patch where you can wander the paths to choose from a range of varieties of pumpkins, squashes and gourds of all shapes, sizes and colours, perfect for your Autumnal display, pumpkin carving or autumn foods. The pumpkin patch is also home to scarecrows as well as other photo opportunities so you can savour your happy memories long after you leave.
The pumpkin patch is suitable for and enjoyed by all ages and dogs on leads are welcome. Buggies/prams have been able to get round the patch but this is dependant on recent weather conditions.
