Island Dairies Farm170 Lurgan Road, Dromore, County Down, BT25 1HL

Island Dairies is an outstanding commercial farm with a contiguous block of productive, versatile land extending to about 185 acres (75 hectares) in total. Occupying a fine situation in the heart of County Down, the farm is extremely accessible, with access to the A1 situated 2.5 miles to the east, while Belfast International Airport is 23 miles distant.

Island Dairies comprises a variety of assets, including a charming country farmhouse at its core as well as a partially restored mansion house, both of which include exceptional views of the rolling countryside.

A key feature of the farm is the dairy enterprise and associated land. The extensive dairy complex comprises a 32:32 DeLaval rapid-exit parlour with cubicle accommodation for over 600 cows and heifers, seven silage clamps and slurry storage for over 4 million gallons.

Island Dairies Farm is carrying an in-hand herd of 600 mostly registered Holstein dairy cows, plus followers. Four Lely robotic milking units, which are excluded from the sale (refer to the General Remarks), also support the dairy operation.

A significant advantage of Island Dairies is the quality and extent of its farmland, which lies in a ring-fenced block and includes approximately 165 acres of ploughable grass. The land benefits from excellent infrastructure, including good access via public roads, a network of internal tracks, fencing, and a reliable water supply. About 8 acres of mature woods provide additional amenity and shelter.

The farm also includes a range of modern farm buildings centred around a milk processing plant. Island Dairies Farm presents one of the finest opportunities in recent years to acquire both an extensive and productive farm in County Down, which is well-served with residential accommodation and an extremely well equipped modern dairy complex.
