Next week’s guests can enjoy cosying up around their stoves and firepits after decorating their pumpkins! Our friends over at Pumpkin Patch Produce are doing a fabulous job providing so […]

Side Oven’s Open day at this wonderful local organic bakery means treat time for us and this time we made sure we were there in good time so we didn’t miss out on scooping up some of their delicious homemade breads and almond croissants!!

It’s the annual potato harvest here on the farm right now, so we’re hoping all the hard work we’ve put in over the season has paid off with plenty of scrumptious potatoes – so far so good! Here’s some of the team enjoying the Autumn sunshine out in the fields bringing the harvest home.

As the nights draw in it’s time to get cosy with a Glamping stay here at Kingfisher Lakes, with our tents open right up until the end of October Half Term/ Halloween weekend.

The sweetest thank you note was found after some guests had checked out following their Glamping stay in Barn Owl Bell Tent. This family of 5 had a lovely time, were a joy to have around, and it just melted our hearts when we found this on the side once they’d gone. Come back soon!

The busy school holiday period got in full swing last week with the loveliest bunch of glampers! They were all (or became!) pretty hardcore glampers as they had the intense heatwave to deal with plus a power cut in the whole area – and that was just their arrival day! They made full use of […]
