Lily Farm is a small, family-run vineyard near Budleigh Salterton, Devon, selling sparkling and still wines from its own sandstone slope on the Jurassic Coast.
Alan and Faye Pratt have worked their land in Knowle since 1992, keeping horses, sheep, pigs and poultry before planting the first 200 Rondo vines with their sons Gareth and William in 2005. Another 600 vines, of Bacchus, Seyval Blanc and Reichensteiner, followed in 2013, bringing the vineyard to one and a half acres of sandy loam on a south-west-facing sandstone slope.
