Nottinghamshire farm shop named among the UK’s best for 2025
New research has named Welbeck Farm Shop in Nottinghamshire the fourth best farm shop in the UK for 2025.
Welbeck Farm Shop located on the historic Welbeck Estate near Worksop received a score of 58 out of 100 with Jeremey Clarkson’s famous Diddly Squat Farm in Oxfordshire taking the top spot with 81 out of 100.
Chatsworth House Farm Shop also made the cut in 10th spot with a score of 50 out of 100.
The UK’s best farm shops for 2025 have been revealed by meal delivery box company HelloFresh – the rankings measure each shop based on several factors, including TripAdvisor rating, social media following and price range.
Oliver Stubbins, General Manager, Welbeck Farm Shop said: “We’re delighted to continue to be recognised among the UK’s top farm shops. Welbeck Farm Shop has always been committed to offering the very best in locally sourced, seasonal produce, and this ranking is a testament to the hard work of our dedicated team and the support of our loyal customers.
"Being placed fourth nationally is a proud moment for us, and we’ll continue striving to provide an exceptional experience for everyone who visits our shop, café, and the wider Welbeck Estate.”
A HelloFresh spokesperson said: “Farm shops are an excellent way to enjoy local, fresh produce, especially in the summer. Here at HelloFresh, our recipes are great for making the most out of fresh ingredients while trying new flavours and finding new favourite dishes.”
The research analysed 30 farm shops across the country, awarding scores based on various factors such as TripAdvisor ratings, price ranges, social media followers and chance of rain during a visit.
These factors were then broken down to give each farm shop an overall score out of 100.
Since launching in 2006, the Welbeck Farm Shop has gone on to win multiple awards.
Much of its produce comes from the 15,000-acre Welbeck Estate, alongside Nottinghamshire-based suppliers.
In 2024 the shop was named as The Farm Shop & Deli Show’s UK Large Farm Shop of the Year.
Located in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, the winner Diddly Squat Farm boasts 1,000 acres of land, and you’ll find home grown and locally sourced products in the farm shop.
