Join us at Errington’s Barn during the October mid-term holidays for a fun and educational programme of children’s activities inspired by food, farming, nature and the changing seasons.

These guided sessions invite children and their families to learn, make and explore together. Children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times (parents attend free of charge). Families can book individual activities, or book for the full day, which includes the child’s lunch in our café.

Come celebrate the spooky season with us!

Join us on Friday 30th of October for an evening of spooky storytelling by lantern light, seasonal treats and roasting marshmallows on the fire, and of course come dressed for the occasion!

This event is organised in collaboration with the Blackmount Community Development Trust, and is free of charge to attend (no booking required)

The Cheese Club at Errington’s Barn is a relaxed monthly tasting, led by our cheesemonger Florence. The evening centres around a themed cheese tasting with accompaniments, including a short engaging talk on flavour, seasonality, pairing and the people behind the cheese.

After the tasting, you can choose to stay on for an optional seasonal main dish from the kitchen, cooked especially for the evening. Wine and beer pairings are available to buy on the night.

It is friendly, informal and welcoming — ideal if you are curious about cheese, enjoy good food, or just fancy a thoughtful evening out.
