Routes mapped from our gate
Whilst visiting our Farm why not take the opportunity to go on a beautiful canal and countryside walk. We have mapped some lovely routes for you to enjoy which start and finish at our gate. They are suitable for all ages and showcase the wildlife and picturesque scenery which makes our area so special.
We are also fortunate to lie on Staffordshire’s Millennium Way, a long distance footpath spanning the width of the County (65 kilometres) from Newport to Burton upon Trent. If you are planning to walk this path and need a refreshment stop along the way, our Café and Farm Shop are open daily and we would love to see you!
