Cromar Sheep & Pigs are situated at Wester Strathweltie Farm, Tarland Aboyne in the renowned Howe O’ Cromar area of Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
The farm is part of the MacRobert Trust and we have been tenants with them for twenty years.

Sited at over seven hundred feet above sea level, the area is well known for the quality of stock it can produce.  Because of the harsh winters of cold, wet, snow and frost, the animals farmed here are found to thrive extremely well when moved to lower ground and improved conditions.
