This summer, one lucky visitor could win a party to remember – with a stunning countryside view and a delicious cake to celebrate.

From 14 July to 29 August 2025, every visitor to our Bluebell Café or Kiosk will have the chance to enter a special summer prize draw to win a party in the Natural Affinity Stables Room, complete with a yummy birthday cake handmade by our Roebuck Enterprises Day Opportunities Centre – a prize worth approximately £200. 

Our Natural Affinity Stables room is set in the heart of our beautiful meadow at our Pembury site, with ponies, donkeys, alpacas, goats and lots more just a stone's throw away. 

To enter, simply fill in our competition entry form and pop it in the box (located near the tills) when you visit our Bluebell Cafe or Kiosk over the summer. 

The winner will be announced on Monday 4 September, just in time to plan a late-summer celebration.*

Summer Opening Hours (5 July – 31 August 2025)

• Bluebell Café: Open as usual throughout the summer.
• Kiosk: Open daily, Monday to Sunday, from 10:00 am – 4:00 pm.

And that’s not all – we’re hosting Arts & Crafts and BBQ lunches every Wednesday during the school holidays. Find out more here. 

Still Open for Business During Road Works

Please note that Cornford Lane will be closed at the Pembury end from 14 July to 10 August 2025, due to essential maintenance outside East Lodge.

But don’t worry – we’re still very much open!

You can reach us easily:

• By car from the Halls Hole Road end.
• Or on foot or by bike from Pembury village.

With fewer cars on the road, it’s the perfect excuse for a peaceful stroll or cycle along the leafy lane – and there will always be a warm welcome waiting for you at The Bluebell Cafe and Kiosk! 

Pop in, enjoy a summer treat, and enter our draw for the chance to win a party with a view!

NEW! - I Spy Animal Trail 

While the Pembury end of Cornford Lane is closed to cars for a few weeks, why not turn the walk into a fun adventure? Children can take part in our new “I Spy an Aspens Animal Trail” along the route from Pembury village to the Bluebell Café – spotting signs featuring some of our favourite farm animals! 

Each sign features a silhouette of one of our real-life farm animals and some fun facts about them. 

Tell a team member the five animal names at the Bluebell Café or Kiosk to claim your free sticker! 

It's a lovely way to enjoy the countryside and stretch little legs! 

Trail opens from Monday, 21st July.
