Café
We hope you will enjoy the wholesome food made from scratch in our kitchen daily using good ingredients from our farm and from local suppliers. Beef and lamb from our farm, honey from our orchard hives, local farm eggs, proper sourdough bread, good cheese, local ice cream and, in late spring and summer, organic salad leaves grown on the farm by Growing Well . Fruit from our orchards is frozen in the early autumn. There might be a crumble for pud!
You’re very welcome to enjoy a hearty breakfast, sip leaf tea, lunch on favourites made every day in the kitchen, or tuck into our delicious homemade cakes.
Browse in the farm shop for our frozen homemade ready meals, pies & sausage rolls and, of course a glorious array of home baking
Afternoon milking is around 3.30pm; watch the cows from the café windows while enjoying a glass of milk — how cool is that?
Please speak to a staff member if you have a food allergy or intolerance. Dogs are welcome at our outdoor tables but are not allowed in the café.
