Farmer Copleys

We go every year to the pumpkin festival! It’s become a family tradition. They were smart to add a halal vendor finally! The business that does not adapt will not survive in the long run. So good on them for learning the demographic! The gelato from the farm shop was delicious! I have nothing bad to say, it’s always a great time!

Not for us, today, I am afraid. Popped in on way south from Berwick-upon-Tweed to Solihull, but no light snack in the restaurant. Tried the coffee shop bit just cakes and ice-cream there. Staff proper friendly and we were allowed to buy some food from the farm shop and eat it with our coffees in the cafe.

Overpriced rip off for the Pumpkin Festival so, be warned as you need a ton of cash. I dont believe that if you have to pay tickets into any event that you should then have to keep paying extortionate prices for the whole time you are there. Obviously I'm not saying everything should be free, but come on, stop taking the mick. On our day there were lots of things to do like archery, axe throwing, paintballing and lots of photo opportunities which is all very nice, but the rides and food were a rip off. You'll notice on the rides themselves that most prices aren't listed, that's so that they can change the prices at any given time. Food sellers were the same, all prices were written in chalk so that they can be rubbed out or changed deciding on however much of a rob they're on that day. Some prices obviously amended with fluorescent shapes to be changed also. I mean I'm not a grumpy old man and we did get something to eat, but I just think places like this should be regulated and fined if they charge over the odds. Burgers were lovely, but £7 for a plain burger with no chips that you are eating outside sat on a bench if you're lucky to find one. Not right. The same burgers in Leeds market are £3. Kids hotdogs for £5, shaking my head at that one too, especially when we can see the Aldi/Lidl jars of hotdogs being emptied out in front of us that cost just over £2 and a pack of buns that cost 99p for 6. The Indian food van looked and smelled great but £19 for an Indian platter that I would have to eat on a bench outdoors is just daft. Same with the Greek food van, over a tenner for each meal. Not surprising that some of the food stalls looked like they were struggling for business, the only winners were those that had chips on for £4.50 and even then a very small tray of chips. You're charging restaurant prices for outdoor grub and that's not on. You're charging well over people's budgets for rides and especially for the short times they are on them. One go on the Helter Skelter was £4, yes one go, one miserly little turn. Did you enjoy that kids yeah, now bugger off to the next ride that costs £5 or how about the Dodgems for £7 a car. Kids rides should be £1.50 max, £4-£7 limits a lot of families and disappoints a lot of kids. The gift shop was no better, £5.69 for a bag of giant marshmallows that are £3 in other places. A right rip off of a festival and I imagine all upcoming festivals will be the same, Christmas, don't even bother, can you imagine.

Came for a visit to the sunflower field and had a great time, lots of photo spots! Had lunch in the cafe, food was good although the app was a bit confusing as not everything on the menu was on the app so I had to go inside to order. Farm shop is brilliant and the gelato was absolutely amazing, I’d come back just for an ice cream!

omg what a place its a hidden gem. came here for the very 1st time and so glad we came. had a walk around the farm shop and samples of there home made produce that was on offer and ofcourse this made us buy the product as it tasted amazing would highly recommend. stumbled across a room called The Hayloft we had a cheeky peek in there and found an amazing set up of softplay being assembled i asked the lady who was setting it up and she told me it was for a private birthday party for a 1 yr old. Didnt relise that you can hire out the venue this is amazing weve now made enquiries for our own 2nd birthday party for our grandaughter at that venue if you need the softplay you need to follow them on instagram the_party_events_company for your bookings they are yorkshire based which is a bonus😁🐃🐴
