We look forward to welcoming you to Castle Farm and our little slice of the Darenth Valley!

The Hop Shop overlooks the meadows of the River Darent and our farming policy has ensured that the picturesque quality of the valley’s landscape has been retained. Our farm shop offers quality farm foods, seasonal fruit, treats, gifts and seasonal decorations.

To allow our customers to shop safely, we are currently limiting the number of individuals allowed in the shop at any one time, so please be patient.

Please note we are a busy working farm with tractors and large vehicles active daily on the roadways and in the fields. Please keep dogs on leads and children under close supervision at all times .

HOW TO FIND CASTLE FARM

BY ROAD
BY TRAIN
BY BUS
BY FOOT

The Hop Shop entrance is down a private drive directly off the A225, halfway between the villages of Shoreham and Eynsford, or via Redmans Lane.

Satnavs using the postcode of TN14 7UB can be inaccurate, and take you to the wrong entrance - so follow local signage, or use this link via Google Maps.

On the what3words app, the A225 entrance is: leaves.tell.designor Redmans Lane entry.pies.tools

There are stations at Eynsford and Shoreham, both of which are 1.5 miles from the farm along the A225 or, as a longer walk between the two villages, along the Darent Valley Footpath (see information below for arriving on foot).

There are no taxi ranks at either of these stations. The nearest taxi ranks are at Swanley, Sevenoaks or Orpington. Check train times at Trainline or National Rail.

Go2 provide a request bus service along the A225 to a bus stop at the top of our drive. This service does not operate on Sundays or after 7.30pm.

www.go2now.co.uk or 01732 463964 or search App Store for go2 Sevenoaks. Please note, the only permitted pedestrian access from the A225 will be to a pre-booked limited time event in one of the fields. There is no further pedestrian access through the farm. Please read event information carefully before booking a ticket.

There is a delightful Darent Valley Footpath from Shoreham to Eynsford which goes past some of the lavender fields. You can enter Castle Farm at the Redmans Lane entry, just along from the Lullingstone Visitor Centre.
