Full DetailsShear Wensleydale is set in 24-acres of paddocks and woodland in lower Wensleydale. As a family-run business we create high quality garments, fleece, wool and other items for sale mainly produced from Wensleydale longwool sheep. We run our own flock of rare Wensleydale longwool sheep, as well as a flock of the beautiful Ryeland sheep and other mixed breeds. Wensleydale wool is famous for its high lustre and beautiful long dreadlocks, it is a popular fleece for knitters, hand-spinners and crafters.
You can buy anytime online. Or why not visit us to look at what we have to offer. Nestled in the Wensleydale countryside between Leyburn, Bedale and Richmond, we are open Sunday to Tuesday 11-3 serving drinks and cakes in our large conservatory. The tea room will close on Tuesday, December 18, 2018 and re-open on Sunday, April 14, 2019. You can watch our sheep graze in the fields as you shop or enjoy a drink. Attached to the conservatory is Elmfield House, our award-winning bed and breakfast and self-catering cottage – feel free to enjoy all we have to offer.
We live in the wide expanse of lower Wensleydale. Only 10 minutes from the A1 but surrounded by fields on all sides, we run flocks of sheep including the rare Wensleydale longwool sheep.
