Lovely place to visit. It has a farm shop, animals and serves tasty food. We had lunch then cake, both were tasty and fresh. Something for everyone.

Made a small detour on my cycle ride to stop here for lunch and was very impressed. After a nice friendly welcome I settled down in front of the log fire and enjoyed a tasty bowl of soup and a toastie. All locally sourced and of the highest quality. I will be back!

A fantastic farm shop and cafe. The food is exceptional and reasonably priced. The wooburner in the winter and picnic benches outside in the summer make it cosy and welcoming year-round. Our kids love the small play area, feeding the goats, and the variety of one-off events that are advertised on their Facebook page.

Lush farm shop with lots of local produce and homeware, goats that you can feed and lovely owners. They’ve recently opened a cafe that serves breakfast and lunch, which made it a perfect stop off as we drove north.
