Brilliant day out, spent all day here. The play barn is so fun, the trail was gorgeous with bluebells. We did the Easter trail too which was great fun, mine and my friends toddler loved it. The cafe is very nice too, including the outside area, definitely recommend on a sunny day!

Such a beautiful spot on a family farm, perfect for a chilled day out with friends, family, or your pup. The staff are super lovely and welcoming, and the food is seriously delicious. Can’t wait to come back!

What a pleasant surprise. Partly I am giving them a good score just because they are there and really top off a good walk in the country. But the staff were friendly, its spacious and light and the coffee was fine (by UK standards) but if this is a cortado, a latte must come in a bucket (my hit rate is less than 50/50). I cant vouch for the menu but the cake was way better than a regular bakery.

Enjoyed the experience. It was an extremely warm day so could have done with a fan. Lovely views over the countryside. Limited menu but this good and also generous. Staff polite and attentive. We would come again.
