The location is family-friendly, with play areas to keep children entertained. Many reviewers also mention enjoying the on-site cafe, which serves coffee, tea, and blueberry-themed treats. The staff is generally seen as friendly and helpful. A recurring tip is to freeze the freshly picked berries to enjoy them year-round. However, it’s crucial to remember to bring cash, as card payments are not accepted. It is also recommended to check the website to confirm that picking is possible on the day of your visit.
