Thank you to everyone who took part in the Surlingham Play Area Consultation in April 2026. Your feedback has been incredibly helpful and has given us a strong starting point for potential contractors.
The full consultation results are now available.
Councillors are reviewing an initial tender document at the September meeting. If approved, it will be published on the Government’s Contracts Finder Portal in line with our Financial Regulations.
Further updates to come later in the year.
Hello everyone!
School Summer Holidays are here and with it our special days are back!
Every Wednesday we will host the Morning Coffee Club which has been suggested to us by many locals. So it will be a time to unwind over a cup of coffee and cake! 10 to 12 every Wednesday!
And the long awaited Portuguese Sardine BBQ is back on the 16th of August from 1.30 – booking is required as usual!
And in the meantime we have lots of things lined up week by week!
We wish you all an amazing Summer!

Hello all you wonderful people.
This week we have lots going on. This Thursday 16/07/26 we will have our fresh farm reared and grass-fed Belted Galloway beef in. The last batch is mostly all gone now and absolutely flew out. There will be a large variety of cuts including steaks, mice, stewing steak, joints, ribs, sausages, burgers and more.
Thursday also brings fresh bread in from Ketts Hill Bakery. Again, we will have dough balls to make your very own pizzas, cheese scones, fruit scones, sour dough, sliced and whole bread in granary, brown, white as well as new tea cakes! Our last batch was huuuuuge and is now completely gone.
Yet another Thursday favourite is the Fish Van which will see Alec come down to the farm between 1:30pm and 2:30pm with a wide and fabulous array of fresh and smoked fish and shellfish etc right outside the Farm Shop.
The Farm Shop itself is full to the brim with eggs, cheese, bacon, charcuterie, pizzas, oils, frozen fish, veg, salad, snacks, crisps, milk, milkshakes drinks, choccy, kitchen cupboard essentials, our new cook from frozen cookies, meats and much, much more.
Also on the farm we have the wonderful Teles Patisserie with hot and cold drink and tasty snacks, meals and treats and our Timeshare Pool.
We also (gosh I am sure you are bored on me saying ‘also’) wanted to say a big thank you for all your support and custom, the shop has been very busy lately and we hope we have been keeping you topped up with your needs. Please do get in touch any time if you have an feedback or questions on any of the above or anything in general to info@yarevalleyoils.co.uk (except for who will win the World Cup… only FIFA know that).
We should also be getting up some signage soon on both Mill Road and The Covey to integrate and condense all the current info on what we provide down here on the farm as well as smartening it all up a bit with a fresh look and with local artwork from the wonderful Charlie Hampton.
Whatever or wherever you are…. happy a sooooper week from everyone at the Farm.
