I amthinking of planting one of these apple trees. Is it possible to restrict it's height to about 8foot ?

From what I have been reading recently Yes.
I am a complete novice with no fruit experience, but we too are hoping to platn some apples. Our plan at the moment is for M26, as they yield better than M9. And to grow as a cordon. Not too sure on the Lord Lambourne, but it looks good on paper.

 :) Put a Lord Lambourne in last year with lots of other apple trees as cordons,

it fruited and is even better this year,

I would highly recommend this variety/ shades x

What is the flavour like ?  I like Cox/Breaburn type flavours.
