Lovely little fruit picking place.... We went for the strawberries but other fruits are available like gooseberries, blackberries and raspberries (though raspberries would come a little later in the year). Not sure if it was just cause of pandemic times or staffing but there was nothing else to do here, for kids in particular, i.e. no play equipment. I can't say this for the entire picking area, but the section we were advised to pick from had a fair few weeds and nettles so we had to monitor little man quite a lot to make sure he didn't get stung. An enjoyable experience none the less.

Picked the end of the strawberry season to go fruit picking. We were advised to look for strawberries by rummaging under leaves throughly. We managed to collect 2 big punnets. Also got some raspberries. A great experience for 2 children too to get to pick their own fruit.

Awesome place with lovely fresh Strawberries, other berries are available, but my daughter wanted only strawberries. Friendly staff and a good outing with family. Kids will love picking strawberries, you will need to keep an eye on the kids as they will pick up any strawberries they see!!

Great place to spend time with kids just on the outskirt of Leicester. PYO is a great activity and kids will love it. Fruit is nice and juicy and what you pay is cheaper than buying it at any supermarket.

Beautiful fruit farm with a great system and clear paths for fruit picking. The staff were so lovely and welcoming too. We got ourselves a few punnets of juicy strawberries and my toddler had the best day out hunting for the reddest berries he could find.

A fun time picking fruit followed by a lovely cream tea. Polite staff, a nice day out!

Nice place to pick your own but a little bit expensive. You will need to pay for kids playground .

We visited the farm twice. The staff is very welcoming and the farm is full of berries - 🍓, raspberries, blackberries which are tasty and reasonably priced. Kids would love the experience. Suggest to visit the farm around opening hours to get good picks …

Great place to come and chill with very nice helpful staff here showing you where everything is. Place is peaceful and quiet as well as having good produce to pick. I'd recommend going at the start of July as that is when there is supposedly the best/most strawberries however today on the 26 July the strawberries were still great just you really have to look for them. One thing to mention is there are some thorns so I'd recommend not wearing for example shorts as they can cut you. Also toilets were not very clean. Highly recommended place to visit though for a chill. Plus prices are reasonable as 4 punnets cost us around £ 8 I've attached some photos so you can see how much we got in quantity.

Planned my daughters party here today. It was amazing. Sandra was wonderful and a great person to have all things organised. The kids had barn play, followed by picking strawberries and then lunch. Sandra put on a fantastic spread of healthy food, that all the kids ate well. There was cupcakes and ice cream included. What a wonderful experience for the kids. I would highly recommend this place kids parties.

Lively amount of red currents and raspberries, to make jam with ..

A. H.

Lots of different fruit to pick and sell lovely jam!

All i'm going to say is STRAWBERRY'S, RASPBERRY'S, BLACKBERRY'S & GOOSEBERRY'S. Nothing like picking (and testing as you go). The taste far exceed anything you would get at a supermarket or even local market. Staff there are really friendly and helpful, Even let the kids go and see if the few hens they keep had laid any eggs (not for purchasing or keeping) Prices are very reasonable, price represents the testing as you go :) For comparison we took home just over 1.5kg of Strawberry's and it came to £5.90 last week we bought a 200g punnet from a supermarket and it cost £1.90 and they had no flavor at all. We will be going back before the end of this season and head straight back next year.
