Nestled in a valley in the pretty village of Broadbottom is a farm shop boasting a wealth of home made produce and some pretty special views. Lymefield farm shop, garden centre and tearooms has been growing and growing over the past 25 years and is hailed a "hidden gem" by regulars to the Tameside destination.
The farm shop tea rooms boast outdoor terraces with stunning views out across the green fields outside which lead down to the River Etherow. And if you're wondering why the field is quite so immaculate, it's because it's specifically grown as turf to be sold at the adjoining garden centre.
It's all part of the transformation of the historic farm site which has been owned by the Pryce family for the past 100 years. Initially a dairy farm, 25 years ago they decided to diversify with a garden centre - starting it all off with a "couple of polytunnels" on their land.
