If you’re planning to visit this weekend, the weather forecast is looking very promising - and there’s lots to look forward to! 🍂

🎃 Our Pumpkin Patch will be open from 10am-4pm. If you’ve not visited before, head to the Gatehouse in front of the Hall and follow the spooky trail through the Kitchen Garden. Entry is free, you simply pay for the pumpkins you pick!

The gardens will also be open all weekend, as will our estate walking trails. Now the leaves are changing, there are some beautiful scenic views to enjoy across Wilder Doddington.

☕️ Both of our cafés are stocked with sweet treats and seasonal drinks to keep you fuelled for your autumn adventures. If you’d like to secure a table for lunch or dinner at the Grain Store, we recommend booking ahead.

If you’re preparing for cosy season, our Home & Clothing store and Farm Shop are full of autumnal loveliness (and you’ll find a little bit of Christmas magic too!)

🎄 Prefer to just dive headfirst into Christmas? Our Bauble Barn will be open from 10am-4pm, down at the Stable Yard.

Squash season 🎃

As you can see from the Farm Shop, we harvested a bumper crop of squash from the Kitchen Garden this year!

Of course, this had to take centre stage on our Farm Shop Café menus - and our chefs have created some delicious dishes to showcase this sweet and nutty veg at its best.

𝑃𝑖𝑐𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒𝑑:
• Roasted KG Squash Bagel
• KG Squash & Cote Hill Blue Flatbread
• Lentil & Mushroom Cottage Pie

A new season for Doddington 🍂

As we begin to embrace autumn, we wanted to take a minute to reflect on what an epic summer we had!

From our annual Sculpture event to opening the Wild House, we have had some monumental moments - which included launching a brand new website.

Built in partnership with the incredible team at Root Studio in Lincoln, our new site brings together all of our events, experiences and activities in one clear, connected place.

We are immensely proud of what we’ve created, so if you haven’t seen it yet we encourage you to dive in and take a look!

It’s been a busy couple of weeks for our little ‘humbugs’, with plenty of snuffling and exploring as they find their feet at Wilder Doddington 🐽🌿

And when it all gets a bit much, there’s always time for a piggle pile and a good snooze. We wonder what they’re dreaming of?

Mum and her piglets are currently tucked away in a private area of the estate, giving them the time and space they need to settle in.

Meet Donald, our gigantic pumpkin! 🎃

With just a week to go until our Pumpkin Patch opens, it seemed like the right time to introduce you to our newest arrival.

On display in the Farm Shop throughout October, we’re inviting you to guess the weight of this magnificent beast. Guess correctly and you’ll win free entry to Christmas at the Hall!

When the Pumpkin Patch closes, we’ll also be selling Donald’s seeds, giving you the chance to grow your very own giant pumpkin next year.

So… any guesses? Pop into the Farm Shop and let us know! 👀
