First time visiting this venue and on arrival at the farm shop we were massively impressed, such an array of goodies to purchase. The veg looks so fresh and the butchers produce looks impressive also. We had a good chat with the butcher and he was so helpful and knowledgeable. They even make their own corned beef in the Deli which they were also so helpful and gave me a sample to try, it was wonderful and nothing like that tinned stuff we are all used to. The bakery was very impressive also as they start baking at 3am, which you can tell as everything looks so fresh. The fruit and cheese scones were huge and only £1 each. So much to feast your eyes on at this place. Next we had to try the cafe next door and the service was excellent I had the pork bun with chips and could only manage to eat the pork bun and about half a dozen chips. My wife had the cheese and onion quiche and salad and it’s the best quiche I’ve ever tasted. The quiche was so good we went back to the shop and bought one to freeze. The portions in here are very generous and not for the faint hearted. All in all a wonderful experience and we have joined the loyalty card programme and will definitely be back.

Great place to grab a coffee and food while walking along the Lanchester valley railway path. Farm shop contains an excellent butchers, you can buy fresh eggs and meat, bread, bakery items etc well worth a visit. There is a large, free car park available

I am so jealous of anyone who lives within "popping in" distance of this amazing shop and cafe. It is first class with a capital F. I don't have enough characters to describe my joy of seeing what's on offer in their butchery and shop and then tasting the amazing breakfast in the well run cafe. If you have the chance, stop and enjoy. You won't regret it.

Visited here for the first time. Sadly didn’t have time to stay and eat but it looked lovely. Seating area outdoors as well as indoors. Dog friendly. Will definitely be back to have lunch.. We actually went for the farm shop which did not disappoint. Lovely choice of local produce and items from other farms/artisans. The staff looked very proud of their produce and rightly so! Bought some Cumberland sausage made on site and some yummy looking burgers! Will be back for sure. Large car park. Slightly tricky to get to as the lane to the farm is only wide enough for 1 vehicle.

Excelet produce, the beef stotie and chips was excellent. Sausage was very tasty. Got some great produce in the farm shop, plenty of variety on sale. Can't wait to begin tasting everything.

One of the nicest farm shops with the cafe in the area. The prices are very competitive but what are getting is beyond. We popped in today for a breakfast and it was amazing with their own made sausages, black pudding and bread. Highly recommend.

The shop had a wide range of great products and a fantastic butchers, although we came here reading from another review that it was dog friendly but we weren't allowed in the shop which would have been fine but it was abit cold and we had to eat outside. I bought some cheese with nettles in which I've never heard of before and it tasted really nice

I only found out about this lovely little farm shop through an online article in the Chronicle i think it was. I googled it. Checked reviews and looked through the photos and txt my partner the link so we could go and take a visit. The drive from Durham was pleasant with beautiful countryside views. I wore my big coat and woolly hat as I know up this way can get very cold and windy. I made a good choice, lol. On arriving the car park had plenty of spaces, we had arrived late on in the day. It was quiet, hens and sheep playing in the fields. Was lovely to see. We went down and into the entrance to be greeted with warmth, a smile, and a cosy little cafe. In the centre of the room was a lovely little log burner. It wasn't on but I'm sure looks and feels great when it is. The decor is clean,fresh and of the farmhouse country feel which i love. From the ceiling beams ,hung artificial hops which gave it a nice touch. We sat near the nook on a comfy sofa with a long farmhouse coffee table, decorated with a farm style table cloth. Lovely farmhouse cottage style tiled floor. The painting opposite us was painted so well. A lovely touch to a corner they called the nook. The staff were welcoming and friendly. The wait for food wasn't too long. When the food arrived, I was all 'oooh that looks delicious', mouth watering at the sight of it. Then, I looked at mine and was a tiny disappointed. I ordered the steak pie, mushy peas, and dipping chips. Due to our late arrival there weren't any left, so we had fries. They were cooked nice but I do hope to come back and try the dipping chips. The pie looked good, but very small for what I've had in the past at farmhouse pubs and cafes. The pastry and especially the meat and gravy inside was amazing. Melt in the mouth amazing! So yes, although this pie was beautiful, it was not at all big enough, maybe for a child tho. Now, onto my partners dinner, we'll this had the whole wow that looks awesome reaction from me! I couldn't stop looking at it, to the point where I just had to order one! Yes, that's right on top of my pie. I still had room for this beast of a baguette. Well presented. Mouth wateringly so! The coleslaw was the best my partner had had, he said. My partner isn't a foodie like me. He likes the basics. Pizza. So to hear him say that even the salad on the side was really nice and it was the best meal he'd had all week was great. Now my opinion is yes , looked mouth watering. Coleslaw was beautifully creamy. Salad and baguette was beautiful, too. The meat didn't quite cut it like the meat in the pie. I could taste more baguette and salad than the meat but saying that I had already eaten and by this time it was near closing time. I will 💯 be back and will order this again. As it was beautifully made. My aim is try everything on the menu. Desert was a ginger and lemon cake. It was different but beautiful. Went down very well. The contrast between the ginger sponge layers and the lemon cheesecake style layers was lovely. My partner thought the consistency reminded him of cheesecake, and i thought the ginger sponge layer reminded me of Jamaica cake! I'm not one for deserts so I'm sorry my review on this cake isn't very good. But for all the cake lovers out there, go for it. Served with cream in a little jug, which went very well together. We didn't get to see any other cakes due to it near closing time, but we shall be hopeful to sample some next time. This is a beautiful, quiet countryside farmhouse cafe that I am pleased to have read about and visited. We will back soon. Ps we explored the shop briefly on closing time. Fab lil shop. Can't wait to buy the Northumberland nettle cheese!

First visited the farm shop in early 2009 after reading a leaflet a colleague had brought into work. Since then I've seen the business go from strength to strength. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The food is excellent, locally sourced and very reasonably priced. The cafe is a wonderful place to spend some time, the menu is varied and the portions area very generous. I'd highly recommend it to anyone.

The food is a little more expensive than usual, but the quality of the produce is very high - so treat yourself! Recommended.

Everything is great. Friendly staff, knowledgeable and skillful butchers, and a lovely cafe where even the youngest waitress seems genuinely interested in you and your choices. Sunday lunch is the best I have tasted. The chef sometimes appears and talks about how she decided to prepare a dish. One tiny niggle - while cardboard boxes for pieces of gateau may seem OK, they don't hold the contents very well. Less stylish but more practical would be a wedge-shaped plastic box.
