点评:This complex is situated on the A27, about 4 miles east of Lewes and 7 miles west of Eastbourne, between the turnings to Ripe and Selmeston, and has a large car park along with other areas close to the other site attractions.
Whilst we went initially for the Farm Shop there is so much more on the site including a Cider Barn, Plants for sale, Animal Feed Store, Gifts, a Tearoom & for the more adventurous children there is an ‘Open Farm’.
The Farm Shop has food and products from local growers and farmers that they claim offers some of the finest selection of Sussex produce available. This was shown especially in their butcher’s section, which offered high welfare meat and local free-range poultry, and in their cheese counter selections, which offered a wide selection of local Sussex cheeses. Prices were, in both these areas, what one would be expected for what was on offer.
The Cider Barn visit is a must if you’re a cider lover; their claim in this cider-drinker’s heaven, with the option to taste, is to compare and buy from a range of over 100 draught ciders and perries with a further 200 in bottle. In addition, they sell British Mead and a host of local and British wines (still and sparkling) at comparable prices to those available in major supermarkets.
The staff, in the areas we visited, were professional, kind and friendly and actually went of their way in offering helpful advice.

我们最初是冲着农场商店去的,但农场里还有很多其他设施,包括苹果酒谷仓、出售的植物、动物饲料店、礼品店、茶室,以及一个适合喜欢冒险的孩子的“开放农场”。
农场商店出售来自当地种植者和农民的食品和产品,他们声称这些产品是苏塞克斯郡最优质的农产品之一。这尤其体现在他们的肉铺区,那里提供高福利肉类和当地散养家禽,以及奶酪柜台,那里提供各种各样的苏塞克斯郡当地奶酪。这两个地方的价格都符合人们的预期,与所提供的产品相符。
如果您是苹果酒爱好者,一定要去苹果酒谷仓看看;他们声称,在这个苹果酒爱好者的天堂,除了可以品尝之外,还可以从超过100种生啤和梨酒以及200种瓶装酒中进行比较和购买。此外,他们还出售英国蜂蜜酒以及各种本地和英国葡萄酒(包括静止和起泡葡萄酒),价格与大型超市的葡萄酒相当。
我们参观过的各个区域的工作人员都非常专业、友善、热情,并且不遗余力地提供有用的建议。
