Thursday lunch / Overpriced £46 for one scone so dry it was horrid and so very crumbly unable to even cut 1 Soup and two ham sandwiches which came with undressed lettuce leaves and veg crisps / the sandwiches were large and mostly bread and again dry . The kids beans on toast was (£4:99 )for 1 slice of toast with baked beans on . Why so expensive ! And slow service . disappointed yet again.

Overpriced and too muddy to enjoy any of it. We left after 10mins as children got stuck. No one around to help. Pumpkins full of mud so you were unable to choose any decent ones. Cars stuck in the mud. Just awful

Visited today (29th oct 2023) like we always do every year, £7 to enter so cost £21 for a family of 3. So so muddy to the point it wasn’t enjoyable walking about as you had to concentrate to stay stood up! £10 deposit that you get back for a wheel barrow, no queue to get it just hassle to take back and get past the queue etc.
plenty of pumpkins but expensive.
Only a few rides for the kids all at extra costs.
Couldn’t get to photo opportunities because it was too hard to get about on the ground. No hay and walk ways only in main part.
Got some food- cheesy chips and sausage roll / and doughnuts and Nutella. Both sets of staff didn’t want to be there. One was saying why are people still here, they need to go home.
The others at doughnut one were rude, my mum did something wrong so said sorry it’s been a long day, for the reply, try working behind here. Not in a jokey way. Left feeling annoyed.
One positive the men in the carpark! Fantastic helping people, giving shoves to people to help them get out. Directing.
Unfortunately after visiting for many years I won’t be returning for this event. Needs updating and money spending on the ground for rainy days.

First time visiting after hearing so many people raving about it. But I hate to say that we will not be returning. The tickets are very overpriced, considering that you literally get entry and that's all. Rides, food, Pumpkins, wheelbarrow hire are all extra, and extortionate at that.

Everywhere was also extremely muddy, due to all the rain that we have had recently. Whilst this is obviously unavoidable, measures should have been put in place afterwards to ensure the ground is safe to walk on..both my daughters got their wellies stuck in the mud and ended up standing in it, whilst we grabbed their welly. We were slipping constantly, my eldest daughter fell over and has completely ruined her jacket and trousers. Absolutely nothing had been done by Farmer Copleys to try and help customers get around the grounds, gravel, hay plastic boards could have been used, especially with how much profit they have made from the event.

Really disappointing.

Visited with friends for breakfast but were extremely disappointed. I ordered Eggs Benedict costing £10.99 with a side order of Flat Mushrooms. Both poached eggs were hard and the mushrooms turned our to be one mushroom slightly bigger than a 50p. This solitary mushroom cost me £1.89!! I should have complained straight away but didn’t want to spoil the occasion by making a fuss. The moral of this story is complain if unhappy with food but lesson learned for me ‘ I won’t be back’ !

Overpriced

28 quid in for family of 4... £5 on a tractor ride £32 on pumpkins £18 on rides for 2 kids plus £40 on food /chocolate for the kids don't get the over priced entry fee or the over priced rides will be going elsewhere next year

We as a family have gone here every year since our first born (7 years ago) - sadly this will be end of the family tradition. It has simply become far too expensive to justify.

We began the day at the café. Expensive though it was . Eg £4.20 for a mocha. The quality of the breakfast was excellent so fair enough push the boat out.

The problem was the festival. It used to be free or a nominal fee. Now it is £21 for a family of 3 - nothing has been added to remotely justify this. I am baffled what £21 grants you because everything inside the gates has to be paid for aside from a dj, lovely though he was, that struggled with sound system issues throughout.

Every ride had to be paid for. Very basic level ones £3. The biggest insult were the dodgems. The kids were keen. There were no prices displayed but were aghast to be charged £14 for 2 dodgems 😲 for 5 mins.

As for the pumpkins themselves. £10 to rent a wheelbarrow (redeemable on rtn but hassle). Picked a medium pumpkin and were charged £4.50 which cost £1.69 at Aldi.

All in all just felt like a commodity to be fleeced to the maximum extent. What used to be a fun day out has become an overpriced somewhat soulless experience . Shame.

£7.50 for a bacon or sausage sandwich. £3.50 for a pot of tea. YOUVE GOT TO BE KIDDING.
Half a mile down the road to Victoria Garden Centre. Excellent food and not rip off prices.

Have bought plate steak pies for the last 12 years this year total disaster meat inside was so large and hard and gristly were not interested when I complained obviously won’t use them again customer service appalling New Year’s Day dinner ruined

Booked for the pumpkin festival however on our date/ time slot the weather was atrocious to the point where we couldn’t have safely taken a 6 month in a pram and another toddler. We contact the place on the day by phone, no answer, then by e mail twice, no reply received. Absolutely disgusting customer service.

Went to pick some strawberries and everything was fine.
Parking ample,greeted by Martin a very polite gent, picking was as easy as can be with the strawbs at chest height so no bending down and i took my time and got about 3kg in less than 20 mins.
All in all a very pleasant experience

Went to farm shop today and purchased steak pie and salt & pepper potatoes for tea. Got home and surprised to see no guidance on cooking times or temperatures. Perhaps this information may have been useful. Took 1 hr 30 mins to cook potatoes ...been quicker doinv my own

Year after year I take my kids to this place and they’ve never failed me so far . However this year I booked an event and it got postponed. So I made a request for a refund. Several weeks later, calls, messages. Nobody has rang me back nor refunded.

I’m so disappointed with their customer service. It’s as if they are refusing to refund because it’s a small amount! But the ignoring is what’s bothered me more. Blatant ignorance.

Purchase events at your risk!
