One of the things I'll miss about England is the great Farm Shop. We visit many farm shops. They have produce grown on that farm and some stuff from other local farms. They also have cheese, meats, meals, and other food products made locally. Our local farm shop is La Hogue in Chippenham. While we were in Cheddar, we visited the Nyland Hill Farm Shop, but they don't have a website . . .
If you ever visit Britain, work a farm shop into your schedule and you won't regret it. If you're visiting Bath, Glastonbury, or Stonehenge, you might as well drive just a bit further and check out Nyland Hill Farm Shop. Or, if you're in Cambridge, check out La Hogue in Chippenham.
We love farm shops. Some are better than others. The two we've mentioned here are especially good. All of them are different and special in their own way. La Hogue offers a separate wine shop and a seasonal Christmas Fayre, and Nyland Hill Farm has open days where the kids can see the animals and learn about where their food comes from.
To locate a farm shop near where you live in the UK or near where you'll be staying, you can put the post code in on this interactive map:
