Inside the new farm shop with play area and Sunday cookie van

It may be a newcomer to the farm shop world, but the burgeoning Brook House Farm shop and cafe certainly knows how to cause a buzz. The family-run farm opened its new barn shop with tearooms in September in the village of Mottram St Andrew in Cheshire, after outgrowing their original farm shop building which was opened during the pandemic.

They've continued to develop the site, and this week opened up a new outdoor play area for children, with a seated terrace right next to it for parents and carers to enjoy a coffee while keeping an eye on the youngsters.

And the farm shop has been causing a stir on social media at weekends, as on Sundays the popular Baked by Bean home-made cookie van opens up and has seen hungry punters queue right down the lane to get their hands on the baked treats.
