‼️Important message‼️
Unfortunately our Pumpkin patch will be shut this Saturday 24th October.
As you’ve all probably seen on the weather we are expecting a storm on saturday, so we have made the very very hard decision to not open our pumpkin patch this Saturday.
This has been a hard decision but we can’t risk anyone getting injured, or their cars getting stuck.

The milk hut WILL be open as usual and will be fully stocked with yummy cakes, ice cream, hot drinks and milkshakes, so you can all still get your treats, to enjoy in the warmth of your homes.

We can’t wait to see you all back at the patch on Sunday!
Huge apologies

Keswick to Threlkeld Railway Trail will be closed from Saturday for safety due to Storm Boelo which is forecasted to hit over the weekend. A yellow warning for wind has been issued for the north of England and Scotland from 6pm on Saturday till 9pm on Sunday.

Avoid wooded areas in the Lake District and think carefully before making any journeys - are they necessary, and is it safe?

Conditions will be much wilder and more unsafe on high ground and in the fells.

Follow the Met Office for up to date storm information.
