Features

The House of Cider: We are thrilled to be recognised by The Times as one of the top 35 farm shops in the country. At the heart of Sheppy's Cider Farm stands the former apple pressing rooms. Now converted in a contemporary and cosy style you will find our award winning Farm Shop, Deli, Café and Restaurant.
Tours: There's nothing better than going on a real cider tour. The holy grail of cider enthusiasts. Join us on our weekend tours for a peek behind the scenes at one of the oldest cidermakers in the world. Each guided cider tour includes a visit to the orchards, the press house, the vat house and the Sheppy’s rural life museum and culminates with a guided tasting of some of our best loved ciders. You can make a day of it by booking a meal in our restaurant.
The Orchards: Why not grab something delicious from the deli then find a secluded spot to enjoy it. A walk through our orchards is one of the most picturesque experiences you can have. From the spring as our trees blossom and the apples begin to grow through to October and November when we harvest our apples, each month has its own identity and we love to let our customers experience the seasons with us. The colours are exquisite and the sun shining through the trees is a highly memorable experience.
Children's Play Area: Enjoy the perfect combination of watching your children play while you enjoy a coffee or even a cold cider.
Orchard Walks: We have three sign posted walks to enjoy, 20 minutes (Yellow) and 40 minutes (Red) and 1 hour (blue) which is suitable for dog walkers.
