About Chestnut Cattery
We are licenced to accomodate up to 26 cats on a 1 acre site. The cattery is surrounded by countryside and contains a Chestnut copse and numerous other mature trees. The rest of the site is devoted to growing organic vegetables and flowers. Access to the site is by a lane which is shared by a large popular nursery and stables. Their is ample Parking for visitors and a turning circle for easy depature. In busy times we provide access through a second gate for vehicles and pedestrians from the lane.
History
The land was originally part of Rookesbury estate and is located in area known as the Border. It is close to the Forest of Bere and is surrounded by trees and open countryside. When the site was purchased 4 years ago it was covered in brambles and scrub. It took over 2 years to clear the site and replace an old broken down shed with a new one, part of which is now the cattery Reception.
