This is a working farm, with livestock around, so we do prefer that you do not bring your dogs, but all dogs HAVE to be on a lead at ALL times, under close control, and pick up after them.
There is lots of food to eat while you are here and things to do.
A wonderful attraction for all locals and tourists alike.
Local Origins Rural Network is a local producers and skills network who have established a very popular, twice monthly market showcasing the best in locally grown and created food and creative arts.
Come along and experience the vibrant atmosphere, enjoy catching up with friends over lunch – always plenty to eat whilst your there - and plenty of produce to take home, from butchered beef, mutton, lamb and pork, fresh seafood and fish, goose, fruits and vegetables, according to seasons, as well as eggs, herbs, cheese, pies, bakery, sweets and confectionary.
Cookery demonstrations are regular, as are trial sessions of felting, pyrography, jewellery, wood turning and other craft activities, with beautiful items to take home for yourself, or as gifts and souvenirs.
Plans for 2011 include natural history, traditional skills, language and culture, history and charity stalls.
To make each market even more special it is located on a working farm, just outside the village of Benderloch, where there is a wide range of poultry and waterfowl, Jacob sheep to see as you stroll through the ground, set out to encourage local wildlife, as well as a plant centre to explore.
