Good to Know
Please remember that the pumpkin patch is a field and as such facilities are very basic, we do have a Portaloo for emergencies but there is no running water or baby changing.
Expect uneven ground.
Friendly dogs on leads are welcome – please clean up after them and take any mess home.
We are always happy for people to take photos for personal use whilst buying pumpkins. However anything professional or commercial in nature needs to be pre-booked. No drones unless with prior written permission.
The field is part of our working family farm, as such parents are responsible for the supervision of their children at all times.
The majority parking is on hardstanding so will remain useable in all weathers (fingers crossed for the sun!).
