As a small croft producing pork and lamb for private customers having a fantastic butchery service is crucial. Second to none private processing, often pulling out a magic wand with my requirements. They go out of their way to fit me in, in often busy times. We get comments from my customers often about the quality and taste of our sausages and burgers and many returning customers thanks to Macbeths.
