FAQ’s

Do you have parking on-site?

Yes, we have a hard-standing car park which has easy access to the farm.

Can I bring my dog?

Sorry no dogs allowed except guide/assistance dogs

Do you have baby change facilities on-site?

Yes, we do have toilet facilities which include baby change facilities as well as a disabled portaloo.

Do I have to book?

You do not need to book for strawberry and raspberry picking but always check our social media pages before travelling here. If we are running low on fruit, we will announce that we are closed on our social media. If you wish to enjoy the flower field, please pay the additional charge for entry at our welcome desk.

We take bookings for our pumpkin season.

Do you take cash or card?

We take both cash and card.

What is your postcode?

We don’t give out our postcode as it will take you to another farm.  Visit our ‘Find us page’ for more information on how to get here.

Do you have any gluten-free or vegan options in the cafe?

Yes, we have gluten-free and vegan cake options served in our cafe. If you have any dietary requirements please speak to a member of staff who will be able to assist.

Are you wheelchair & pushchair friendly?

Pumpkin Season – the main part of our site is wheelchair and pushchair friendly which includes the car park, toilet facilities, cafe, and marquee areas.  During October it gets very muddy on the farm especially if we have had rain so the main pumpkin fields are NOT accessible for prams or wheelchairs.  We have plenty of pumpkins in our welcome marquees for sale however so wheelchair and pushchair users are still able to pick pumpkins from the accessible areas.

Summer Season – Most wheelchairs and prams are able to access the main parts of our site which include the car park, toilet facilities, cafe, and marquee areas.  We have a gravel path that leads to the summer fruits and although the ground may be a little bumpy in some places most wheelchair and pram users have been able to access the strawberries.  Our strawberries are also raised off the ground which makes picking easier for wheelchair users.

We have a disabled portaloo on site with baby change facilities inside.

Can I bring my own container to pick fruit?

Yes, you are more than welcome to bring your own containers to pick fruit. We also have punnets available to purchase on-site.

Will it be muddy?

As we are a working farm, if the weather is poor then it is likely to be muddy.  We recommend wearing appropriate footwear and clothing to combat this. We have fruit under polytunnels so you will be able to stay dry when picking

How does the strawberry & raspberry PYO work?  

When you arrive you can collect punnets from the welcome desk when you check-in.  A staff member will advise the best location to pick the best strawberries – follow the ‘Pick here’ signs.  Only pick ripe fruit as unripened fruit will not ripen at home.  When you have finished picking your strawberries, your produce will be weighed and charged by weight at the pay station.  We recommend you wash your strawberries before eating & please only pick what you intend to pay for.
