Browse for plants, get advice
After such a fabulous time in May we are pleased to say that the Pop-Up Plant Stall hosted by Watsons Plants is becoming a more regular feature at Blackthorpe Barn!
Watsons Plants are the talented team behind the beautiful planting in our courtyard troughs and Chris Watson will be setting up in the courtyard or, if the weather takes a turn, you’ll find him under cover nearby.
Join us from 10am–4pm on Saturdays and Sundays, every other weekend, to browse a selection of quality plants and pick up expert advice to help your garden thrive this summer.
The 20 September was the last pop-up plant stall for 2025. We hope to see Chris back again in 2026.
Free entrance, free parking

There is plenty of free parking available.
Accessible parking is available near the entrance to the Café/Shop area.

Blackthorpe Barn is situated just south of Junction 45 of the A14, three miles east of Bury St Edmunds, in the village of Rougham.
Look out for the entrance gates to a long tree-lined avenue at the White House junction, with the Barn on the right of the avenue.

January is a great time to try something a little different, so throughout the month- as it’s Veganuary - we’ll be serving up a weekly plant-based special alongside our usual menu.
This week’s dish is roasted butternut squash with chipotle jam quinoa, chermoula garlic mayo, pickled red onion and coriander. Packed with flavour and a brilliant option whether you’re fully vegan or just fancy a change.
Pop in for your first visit and you’ll receive a 10% voucher to use across January and February. While you’re here, grab a coffee loyalty card too – your 8th coffee is free.
What’s not to love.

It’ll soon be time to think about what to do with your real Christmas tree now the festive season is over.
Instead of putting it out for the bin men, how about considering a recycling scheme that helps a fantastic local charity?
The MyWish Charity - Treecycle initiative allows you to responsibly recycle your Christmas trees, benefiting the community and reducing waste.
