Really enjoyable visit, in October and they had a Halloween Pumpkin Trail which kept my 7yr and 5yr old children engaged with exploring the whole of the site. The Abbey was impressive with plenty of interesting features, plus with a large mock kitchen which my children enjoyed pretending to be the Abbey cook! The Farm Cottage with period features was of interest to all ages, and the house contents and unusual historic references was a particularly useful way to teach my children how the past generation lived. The site can be explored quickly, or slowly and some parts repeated like we did, spending nearly 2 hours. The gift shop sells a fanstastic guide to explain the full history of the site. Considering this was free to enter, i thought the whole experience was brilliant, and we will visit again.
An interesting mix of old farm machinery and information on methods. There was a nice example of a typical farm labourer house, and of course the old Abbey too. The staff were really friendly and very enthusiastic. Not enough to look at for a whome day, but a nice half day trip.
Fascinating farmland history. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good value
An English Heritage site where the history of agriculture in the England is showcased. There's also a ruined Abbey and you can stroll inside. Make sure to visit if you are around Ely or Cambridge.
