family days out in kent

Visitors to The Yalding Gardens (formerly the Yalding Organic Gardens) will find five acres of stunning organic gardens designed along a historical theme and our cafe - The Bushel Box - selling delicious homemade breakfasts, lunches, and teatime treats. If that's not enough to "awaken your senses” there is our farm shop selling produce from the gardens, local area, and further afield. You can also grab a pressie for someone you love, or treat yourself to a little something. So whether it's for a special meal, a pint of milk, or a Sussex Trug we hope you'll find something that satisfies. Yalding Gardens, has a family friendly policy. We offer a wide range of homemade food for all the family and also sell the little extras like baby food and milk just in case! We have good baby changing facilities and a year round childrens craft and learning corner in the cafe. We have childrens toys free to use on the cafe terrace, during the summer months. Every school holiday we offer low cost and free childrens activities on Mondays and Wednesdays. We offer a toddler storytelling on the first Monday of every month in school term time. We have special family fun days such as our Apple festival, National Play Day and Pumpkin Day where we run activities from face painting to trails and crafts.
