Best Strawberry Picking Leicestershire Has To Offer
Cattows Farm
Location : Swepstone Road Heather Leicestershire LE67 2RF
Pick Your Own was established in 1986 when they decided to plough up two acres of barley and plant strawberries in its place.
They first sold the strawberries from a picnic table at the road side, before opening to the public the following year.
The very first sales area was affectionally known as “The Shed”, because that’s exactly what it was, a 15ft x 12ft garden shed!
In 1992 they hand built a new bigger “strawberry shed”. This is now the tea room/restaurant.
They now grow 10 acres of traditionally grown strawberries (8 different varieties), 3 acres of raspberries along with gooseberries, blackcurrants, redcurrants and blackberries. Sunflowers are also available for pick your own.
