I was there with my family recently and we had one of our most memorable best days together to date. The gorgeous spring weather, the animals, Amelie being the perfect age to take it all in and some fabulous food, coffee and cake made the day perfect. It is such a pity we had to take Amelie to get her 12 month immunisation afterwards, but that aside it was truly a lovely day.
Amelie enjoyed the lambs the most, some had only been born that day and she really enjoyed watching them stumble around in the hay. We all thought it particularly amusing and cute when one of the lambs perched himself on top of his mothers back for a few moments, his wobbly legs gave way and he tumbled to the ground, unhurt thank god. It reminded me of an adventurous Amelie when she first started to walk at just 9 months old, she had barely mastered the left right of it and was already trying to climb and run.
We went mid week which was ideal, while there were a few other families floating about it almost felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. The gardens are truly magnificent and the story behind the two sisters who kept the farm running through wars and hardships to ensure it would survive is very inspirational. I will review the restaurant at Airfield soon and of course share it with you but in advance I would recommend the vegetable roulade...
Have a wonderful weekend
