ISABELLA TREE: A day in the country

I live at Knepp Castle in West Sussex, my husband Charlie Burrell's family home, in the middle of our 3,500-acre rewilding project. My perfect day would be wandering around the place. There's always the possibility of bumping into a free-roaming Tamworth sow and her piglets, or a herd of Exmoor ponies, or some super-relaxed longhorn cows. Overhead, there could be white storks bill-clattering in their huge nests in the tops of oak trees (the first white storks to nest in Britain for 600 years were here at Knepp in 2020).
