Pick Your Own
A true British favourite! Bring your secateurs and select your favourite Stems from our picking area. 3 stems included per paid entry. If you would like any additional stems, we will charge you an extra £1 per stem.
We've planted an extra (Autumn Mix) variety this year and these can be picked for £2 a stem, donated to Sophie's Legacy.
No problem if you do not own any secateurs, please borrow some of ours but remember to bring some pennies to donate to our chosen charity!

Sunflower Trail & Maze
We’ve cut a real maze cut into the sunflower field which we anticipate may take you between 35 and 45 minutes to complete and will lead you to our Look Out Tower for a birds eye view of the Sunflowers. There's also a separate sunflower trail, a cut walkway for you to slowly meander through the sunflowers and explore and photograph till your hearts content. Along the way will be fun props and an activity for you and your family and friends to discover and enjoy with a beautiful sunflower backdrop, providing the perfect photo opportunity.
Refreshments
Please bring a blanket and a picnic to enjoy amongst the
beautiful sunflowers. The carpark is just a short stroll away so handy to nip back for supplies!
