Waiting to fling open the doors once more…
We’ve made the heartbreaking decision to close until the country is safer for travel. For now we all need to do our bit to stop the spread of Covid-19 and stay at home.

Spring Events near Graston Farm
Spring is one of our favourite times of the year. Graston Farm is the perfect spot to shrug off winter and welcome the longer days and warmer sun. There are plenty of ways to soak up the joys of Spring on the farm; from feeding the baby calves and lambs to exploring bluebell-filled valleys and signs of new life in the fields and rivers on our doorstep. Spring also welcomes a flutter of local events, perfect for those thinking about Easter holidays and Spring staycations.
