We visited the Farm Shop one afternoon and the service and produce here is excellent, The sausages are truly excellent and the Pork Pies superb and all the other meat, from stek and burgers to pork and lamb have so far been wonderful. The Sausages take me back to my childhood with memories of delicious sausages and these have the same taste and are way better than supermarket bought stuff. We will be making this place part of our regular shopping run from now on.
On having such a good visit in the shop we asked about the Cafe and was informed that booking was essential and so a week or so later we called and booked for midday which provided an opportunity to take along our 18mth old grand daughter to see the animals etc.. On the day we arrived promptly about 5 minutes before 12.. there is a one way system in with hand sanitiser and the NHS Covid app scan area. There are about 10 tables in the inside area of the Cafe and only two men sat at one table finishing their meal and a party of four at another just reading the menu. It took 3 or 4 minutes getting to the counter as folks were giving take out orders in front of us. We got to the counter and were then told our table was ready and pointed in the direction of a table near the entrance and we went and sat down to peruse the menu. Other than the waitress at the counter the place appeared devoid of staff at this time.. and despite the waitress saying she would be with us in a minute she was taking orders from the other table, having to return to the counter when someone came in and was clearing old plates from tables vacated before our arrival.. In all it took 25 minutes for someone to come for our order, which with a young child who thought that was way too long to be sat still was a bit of a test. At that point it appeared lunch break was over as then there were three waitresses moving about in the cafe. My wife went an took our grand daughter to see the animals. We had ordered two of the 'medium breakfasts which were about £7.50 each and something from the kids menu for the little one, you pay at time of order, never popular with me.. I can see the need if folks are eating outside and may slip away without paying and obviously they just do that for inside too. In contrast to the wait to order it only took about 10 minutes for the food to arrive.. A hearty breakfast indeed if only they didn't drop the toast on top of the tomatoes making it so soggy that it fell apart when picked up and those tomatoes were a sort of thick paste rather than discernable peices of tomato in juice, similarly the baked beans were 'over cooked' if thats possible, rather congealed and had to be cut with a knife, if proded with a fork they moved as one mass possibly been kept warm for most of the morning so quite dry. Those points made the sausage, bacon and eggs were nicely done and very tasty as I knew they would be, the hash browns and saute mushrooms too were very nice. I didn't care for the black pudding, just something missing but I did try it. All in all the meal was good and worth waiting for. Apart from the little gripes which may have been due to the time we visited, I'm sure those beans and tomatoes would have been great at 9 or 10 am. On the whole it was a 7 out of 10 for the breakfast. Other things to mention, the childs meal wasn't great, one and a half sausages on a folded over slice of bread.. I dont think the little one was too concerned though, she enjoyed the bread but the sausages went with us, half each for the three dogs who like me thought they were excellent. Finally the table top was quite sticky and this is clearly not due to poor hygiene the waitresses cleaning the tables was very evident but maybe what is used to clean them or that they are unpolished wooden topped tables even so it didn't detract too much from the experience. On balance I would re-visitbut probably at a different time or for a different meal.. not bad all in all!

Changed the place around, now an alpaca and animal farm experience, have a small farm shop and a cafe that does breakfasts. Lovely surroundings. Plenty of parking available, friendly helpful staff, wheelchair accessible to all parts.

Sooo disappointed. Called, placed order told it would be 45 min. No problem. Got there early, paid, grabbed a coffee and waited. Couldn’t find my order, but hey it happens. I know it’s worth the wait. An hour went by, asked to check on order, told it’s on its way. Got order, checked bag all looked good. Bags labels correct. Always worth the wait. 👍🏻
Got home opened bags. Nothing like what I ordered!! So so so disappointed. Paid for more got less. Check orders before leaving to avoid disappointment. And by check I mean open your bags and give it a visual check 😭

The BEST breakfast food ever, and for a reasonable price too! Friendly happy staff, helpful, clean tables, food tastes great, cooked well, sausages are amazing, eggs are not rubbery, and their toast is proper toast with proper butter- all over it not just scraped on the middle! I highly recommend eating in here and having the Belly Buster Breakfast if you can fit it in!

First visit today and we had a fab time. 💕 Loved feeding the animals and Nat had great fun playing on the air pillow with some new friends he made. Little snack and drink from the cafe, sat in the glorious sunshine. Staff super friendly and chatty.
