Beautiful farm & friendly staffs! The strawberries are still unripe. Should be better in the next few weeks when we get more sun. Would love to be back! Fresh fruits. Love the animal section as well! There’s one particular goat that was so friendly
The store is very complete with varied products and all organic. Quality high price. The girls in the cafeteria are very friendly. You must order at the bar and they bring the food to the table. Everything organized and clean toilets. The farm is small but ideal for children to come and see the animals. You can take a walk to see the trees and the harvest depending on the season. Highly recommended.
Really lovely, we done some young farmer experiences and walked the alpacas and the bug experience with 'all about alpacas" , so have been a couple of times, which was really lovely. You have to book that separately, the cafe was lovely but busy and the shop had a good range of food and drinks . The farm itself Is very small and there is a little play area with some ride on tractors. So unless you have booked a experience day , there isnt loads to do hit good if meeting friends for lunch or something, Would be back for sure
What a lovely place to enjoy some quality times with the grand littles. First, we had lunch in a wonderfully clean and friendly cafe, the staff really did make us feel special, helpful and understanding. The menu offered a great choice of lunch bites with a separate children's menu. Plus a special options list. The Mushroom soup was awesome. Plenty of cakes for an extra treat to. The rest rooms clean and sparkly and the hi chairs and disabled facilities met with our kindly approval. Outside we enjoyed the farmyard experience with goats, alpacas, donkeys and a huge pig resting up in the hut. Kids loved it and the little buggy sized tractors made it fun for grandad hat me, as he pushed Maisie around the circuit. Finally, did some shopping in the farmshop coming home with plenty of beautiful goodies to fill our hearty needs. They even had eco friendly tubs of green body washes where you top up your existing containers. Well done Lathcoats Farm, a gem in Chelmsford.
This farm isn't really that far out in Chelmsford, to the point I really wasn't expecting it to be very big. When we turned up there was a sign to either short or long car park long to the left / short to the right. It looked busy I short stay area so we went to long stay but the business was more likely due to the fact that you drive through the short stay area to exit! Car park itself is a fair size, and it looks as though they do strawberry picking when in season. We had intended to visit the cafe, but it was too busy and just a little too cold to sit outside with the kids. We went to visit the animals, there isn't loads but uts free entry and nice to see the animals being kept so nicely. They also have a little play area with some ride on diggers that the kids had a go at. The farm shop itself doesn't look all that big when you walk past, but when you go in it's actually filled with a fair amount of stuff! As with most farm shop type places some of the goods are a tad on the expensive side, although we found the stuff they make themselves fairly reasonably priced we got apple juice, apples, some salad bits and some cider! It was a nice visit and I would visit again - and the apple juice was pretty good!!
Stopped by on the way to Galleywood on the Easter Friday and saw some cute animals there including a family of goats, beautiful hens. There were lambs with tags on ears that really concerned my son..as they were babies without mummy..tourists were trying to play and get photos taken with the poor babies. My son worried if they will be killed and asked why they had eartags. The staff said they send these lambs back to the farm they were brought from. Why farm animals at all..let them be in wild with their mothers and live without human interference..why breed them and worst is the cafe where they've been serving various animals..pigs, tuna, dairy, eggs and just a few vegan ingredients too as an option. Imagine enjoying looking at the animals..then going to eat some of them as if you are a cruel person killing beautiful animals who just wanted their freedom and basic right to live, killing babies and mums for milk...for your mother's day tea. These type of people even eat lambs at Easter. Super super Evil.
This is a fantastic farm shop, does exactly what it says on the tin. Fabulous produce, fabulous staff. Big thumbs up!
Great afternoon out strawberry picking!!!! delicious Plus followed by a walk around the little farm and lunch in the tea room. Defo recommend!
We visited Oct 2021 for pumpkin picking and PYO apples. The apple trees are small so my toddler could easily reach the apples to pick them herself.
Great place to pick fruit, have a bit of lunch and see some animals. A bit for everyone.
