Palfrey & Hall artisan butchers

Palfrey & Hall supplying Woodfarm Barns

By

This Blog Post is all about Palfrey & Hall, now supplying Woodfarm Barns.

As part of our delicious local breakfast basket that we give our guests with every stay, we have always sought to provide the best bacon we can and now Palfrey & Hall are supplying us with their fabulous smoked back.

We continuously seek out Suffolk companies to work with, whether it be local shops, pubs, restaurants, visitor attractions etc and its satisfying to meet like-minded business-people, passionate about what they do. Palfrey & Hall are just that.

I first met Deaglan Hall when he came to one of our Pop Up Restaurant events and along with his business partner Sean Palfrey, they have an artisan butchery business based about 5 miles away from Woodfarm, on the Kenton Hall estate. They provide a bespoke service to local smallholders, with cutting, curing and smoking and also produce their own range of quality meat for private and trade customers. They will also be opening a retail butchery shop in the very near future too, so a real bonus for our guests.

Provenance is extremely important to the guys and as local craft butchers they pride themselves in knowing the provenance of all of their meat and may even be able to pinpoint the field it was raised in! They have a wide range of superb quality meats from pork, chicken, lamb, beef, venison and even water buffalo and goat.

I see Palfrey & Hall produce popping up in more and more local deli’s and farm shops nowadays so the guys have really grown the business considerably since they started back in 2013.

Please visit the Palfrey & Hall website and read lots more about them.

Better still, check our availability and get yourself booked in for a relaxing Suffolk holiday cottage break, where you’ll be able to try out their wares. Give them a call and I’m sure they’ll put together any package for your stay too!
