Cumberland Wagyu

From one countryside project to another 🌿

Alongside our work at Cumberland Wagyu, we’re proud to have renovated and supported the transformation of an equestrian facility at one of our properties.

The centre is now being independently managed by Shianne, who will be bringing a fantastic new facility to the local equestrian community. 🐎

We wish Shianne every success with this exciting new venture and can’t wait to see how it unfolds!

Cumberland Wagyu is aiming high.

What began as “a bit of a hobby” for Kevin Thompson in 2016 has grown into an ambitious Fullblood Wagyu enterprise at Woodside Farm, Broughton Moor, with a clear aim to become a go-to supplier of top-quality Wagyu beef in Cumbria and beyond.

Following the purchase of the Redewater Wagyu herd in 2022, Kevin has continued to build numbers through a focused breeding programme, with the herd now including 80 Fullbloods and more calves on the way.

With a strong focus on high-welfare, stress-free rearing, self-sufficient feed production, careful finishing and premium local supply, Cumberland Wagyu is creating beef with provenance, quality and a story behind every cut.
