Stunning views from the tearooms, and lots in store at this 'hidden gem'
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.
Now, as well as the fresh meat, veg, bakery and wealth of home-made cakes, they also hand-make on the site pork pies, ready meals, sausages and their "famous" cheese and onion pie. You can buy it by the slice in both the shop and in the tearooms and it remains one of their most popular dishes. The tearoom's menu boasts cooked breakfasts in the morning through to a full hot menu at lunchtime, including that cheese and onion pie with salad for £9.45 or wedges for £10.45, while there's a massive cabinet of home-made cakes priced from £3.45 such as lemon drizzle, chocolate fudge and scones. You can also pick up slices of cake, scones, lemon buns and fruit tarts to take away from the farm shop from £1.75.
The butcher on site started out as a space to showcase the farm-reared sheep but soon expanded to offer the local pork farmed in the area, which is also used to make their own sausages and pork pies. The tearooms became another way to showcase and offer all the local produce, and continues to use everything from the shop in the meals served in there.
The location has become the ideal base for families visiting the Lymefield and Broad Mills Heritage Trail which is accessed just up the lane from the farm shop. The half a mile trail is signposted and well maintained with gravel footpaths, and includes things for children to do along the way including a woodland play area.
