Its official! Our pumpkin patch is back again for 2024 - and we think it’s going to be even better….. There’s even grown up drinks available from the on site licensed “baa”. We will be open between 9am and 4pm across weekends in October.

Following on from last year we are once again opening our family run farm to help you make some wonderful memories, picking pumpkins throughout October. With a variety of pumpkins of different shapes and sizes there is something from everyone. Make memories with our special photo props to catch the perfect Hallowe'en insta shot. With hot food, including breakfasts for the morning sessions, the witches brew serving up hot drinks, carving barn, animal experiences (including a cuddle with Oliver!!) and fun activities including tractor rides, fair ground ride, archery and our “witches hat toss” there is something for everyone to enjoy.
