Gift Area

Due to the height of the converted barn there was room for another floor above the Farm shop and Café. This area is given over to local businesses to sell their wares. At the top of the attractive wooden staircase you will find an Aladdin’s Cave of gift ideas including cards, candles, cushions, jewellery, funky coloured wellies and wooden ducks. Local joiner Jon Donaldson offers beautiful hand crafted furniture and accessories and we now have a selection of organic children's clothes for sale from Damsels & Dragonflies. We also have Ally Robinson's handmade silk bags, blankets and greetings cards, Quite Contrary handmade jewellery and Firby Designs Beads and Bags. Plus larger shops such as Eastern Origins with stores in Northallerton and Darlington, Montana Country Collection and Southolme Adventure Toys also there to tempt you.  Our latest addition to the Gift area is the return of a Cookshop at the Lakeside. This is crammed full of everday essentials as well as must have gifts and gadgets.
