I don't think i could find a better place than i already have..my main apiary site is on a farm next to my lady friends cottage right at the end of a no entry track that is half of a mile long..i can fit ten hives in a little fenced of section of a field that i have recently put a gate on for easier access..it is low down in a valley and sheltered on all sides by a dry stone wall on the south side..a large willow woodland on a swamp that covers the Northeast side and the cottage and a sycamore wood that covers the west side..it gets full sun with endless forage and i can get my motor really close..
I also have a second spot in the cottages back garden that will take six hives if need be but that spot is mainly used for placing newly made nucs with bought in Queens...the one thing that could make it perfect is if it was level but i will get around this by making rows of hive stands from scaffolding ..
