Discovery Land at Priory Farm

“We visit every season and it's never disappoints. The 2025 Halloween trail was our most recent day out at Prior Farm. I do think the price has gone up but for a beautiful, sunny autumn day it was priceless. 4 adults 4 children (10,5,3,3) cost £100 including a booking fee. This was peak time on a Saturday (2pm), I think there are slots which cost less (£76 non peak-£100 peak). Under 2s are free. The walk took us 3 hours with a refreshments stop half way from the hot chocolate hut and ended with a play in the outdoor adventure playground. There is ample parking and an overflow. There is clear path the whole way around which we have definitely taken buggies around in the past. There were more chargeable activities this year including a tractor ride and a pick your own pumpkin (which location wise is completely separate from the trail now, unlike last year). Not exactly on site, but the new cafe in the garden centre itself is well worth a visit. Although, there were food vendors in the trail entrance, this included marshmallows you could toast at the fire pit. The kids love the outdoor play and freedom. The mums love the steps, the yap and the coffee at the start, half way and end. The dads loved watching the plane and helicopter circuits out of Redhill aerodrome..... everyone was happy”

“We really love this pumpkin patch. We visited last year based on a friend's recommendation. We used to go to one that was a little more "rough and ready" which was nice - but this one is our preferred patch as it's a bit more suitable for those who like creature comforts! eg Proper loos and a little van serving hot chocolate. Marshmallows on sticks are available to buy to roast (thank you for providing vegan marshmallows!) and there are tons of cute photo opportunities. The kid loved the hay bale maze. Last year we did the tractor ride and Discovery Land which is fun, but this year we were in a rush because we knew it was going to rain, so we went for park and pick and it was just as fun! I’d highly recommend it for a fun day out.”

“We went to Discovery Land and did the 12 Days of Christmas trail. The trail was really well done, especially loved all the little decorations on the fairy house. Everyone (adults included) had a great time. While we were at discovery land we filled in a letter to Santa, and to our surprise we got a visitor dropping off a letter and 2 presents. The letter had my son’s name hand written on the envelope and a personal letter which was very heart warming. The present was a Paddington Bear which my son had asked for in his letter, and the 2nd present was a little Paddington lovey for our baby. Such a lovely surprise from Priory Farm!”

“We went to the Pumpkin Fields for the tractor and pick your own pumpkin experience. We just missed on of the tractors, but there were frequent tractors so the wait wasn’t too long (they come every 15 minutes). Very kid friendly and affordable autumn outing. We loved the maze, the pumpkins, and mashmallow toasting. The thing we didn’t like was that we wanted to eat at the Garden Room Cafe, and after 10mins + of queuing, we were told the wait is over an hour for food. Still a great experience and will go back next year.”
