Saxbys Cider is one of The Sunday Times seven best cider farms to visit in the UK

It’s always very nice to receive a great review from someone who has visited us at our cider farm. Imagine how happy we were to find this recommendation in The Sunday Times in September 2024!

Saxby's Cider September 2020 newsletter

We have lots happening on the farm this Autumn. We'll be picking and pressing our apples very soon getting next year's cider ready.  The pumpkins are growing steadily in the field and will be ready for PYO picking too. And we'll be opening our new taproom for some more events.

See you soon! Philip & Amanda Saxby

SAXBY'S CIDER APPLE DAY PARTY ON THE FARM
SATURDAY 10TH OCTOBER 2020
1 PM- 6PM

Come and celebrate the wonderful world of apples with us on the farm. Where would Saxby’s Cider be without them? 

We’ll have apple pressing demonstrations all afternoon using our original rack and cloth press and if you bring your own apples we’ll press them for you so you can take home the juice. Kids will be entertained with a treasure hunt and can go on a trailer ride around the orchard.

The bar will be open with our usual ciders and we’ll be serving hot mulled cider too. Come and try our new Bourbon barrel-aged cider. We’ll also have street food to make sure everyone is well-fed. Duncan Craven will be playing his guitar during the afternoon and keeping us entertained.

Tickets are £5 for adults and £2.50 for under children aged 6 - 17. Under 5s are FREE.

WE WANT YOUR APPLES!
If you have any unwanted apples you can swap them for cider or apple juice at the farm from 21st September until 3rd October. Just bring them to the shop and for every one of our trugs you fill you can have a bottle of our original cider. Fill two trugs and you can swap for a 3 litre bag in box of our delicious apple juice or go for two bottles of cider. We will press your apples and they will be part of next year's cider.

SAXBY'S CIDER TAPROOM
OPEN 4-8PM FRIDAY 16TH OCTOBER
 

Pop down and see us! No need to book. You'll find all our regular ciders and can try our new barrel-aged Bourbon Cider. At 8.5% ABV it's one to savour in half pints! It's a smooth medium/dry cider with subtle hints of Bourbon Whiskey, it has a long flavour with a satisfying warming feeling.

A FABULOUS SUNNY SPRING DAY FOR SAXBY'S CIDER'S YEAR OF THE PIG PARTY

We had an amazing day for our Year of the pig Party on the farm on March 30th.

Herbert and Hermione made a guest appearance along with Nathan and Mr Jinkles, the donkeys. There were trailer rides round the orchard too.

Duncan Craven kept us entertained all afternoon with his guitar playing and singing and there were pork rolls and plenty of cider to drink.

Thanks to everyone who joined us!
