About Llangattock Honey
Local bee farmers
The hives are tended by Llangattock Apiaries’ owner, Anthony Smith, who is a member of the British Beekeepers’ Association, and Bee Farmers’ Association. His fascination with bees is long standing. Anthony first learned about bees when he was living in South Africa, but the bees there are aggressive and difficult to keep. He started his first hive six years ago in the Middle East, before moving to Llangattock in 2002 and establishing Llangattock Apiaries near to the River Usk. All Anthony’s bees are of the Buckfast breed, which is renowned for its high honey yield and mild temperament.


Llangattock Natural honey
Anthony says: “Beekeeping is completely natural; the bees are doing what they would in the wild. The only difference is that we are giving them a home, stopping them from swarming, and harvesting the goodness they produce.”
“The environment here is perfect. We would like to be able to say our honey is organic, but we can’t follow every bee. There are no commercial crops grown nearby, though, so there is less chance of harmful pesticides and herbicides, and we don’t add anything to our honey once it is harvested.”
We believe happy bees produce better honey!
Anthony has other hives in Monmouthshire and Herefordshire, taking the total to more than 300. He has to check them on a regular basis to ensure the conditions inside are right, and to see whether the wooden frames which bear the honeycomb are full. When they are, they are spun to extract the honey, which is then strained through a fine gauze into sterile containers ready for sale.

"My favourite apiarist (apart from my husband)!! Their honey is amongst the best around, with different infused flavours, and nuts in honey too. They have a Royal Jelly, Pollen and Propolis mix which is great for health, as well as tasting amazing. They also sell bee gifts, bees wax candles, balms and more. When they are at shows local to me, I always stock up with gifts and plenty of honey for me to last until the next show!"

"A friend of mine gave me a jar of Llangattock honey. It was amazing! So, I ordered by text yesterday some items as presents. Anthony posted them to me as promised and I was delighted to receive them this morning. Excellent service. Big shout out here! I'll certainly be ordering some more. Thank you, Anthony. We should all be supporting independent businesses to ensure they survive."
