YOUR GUIDE
UPCOMING EVENTS
Rougham Estate, located in the idyllic Suffolk countryside near Bury St Edmunds, offers a range of activities set in the natural beauty of England.
The Estate’s history dates back centuries having hosted the Romans, Saxons and Vikings. Encompassing over 3000 acres of glorious Suffolk countryside, there are leisurely walks through woodlands and fields to embark on, natural wonders to enjoy and history to discover, including the year-round café serving locally-sourced dishes.
Rougham Estate is a welcoming location for you to relax and be inspired, offering a range of opportunities to immerse yourself in the beautiful surroundings. From the sunflowers in the summer to the Christmas festival, well-respected Crafts events and workshops that bring the estate to life throughout the year, the Estate is committed to sustainability and conservation.
CONSERVATION
Rougham Estate takes the role of caring for the environment very seriously. It covers an area of 3,000 acres in total and boasts woodland covering 20% of the whole, amounting to some 655 acres, or twice the national average. In addition to many miles of traditional hedgerows, the Estate is famous for its wonderful oak trees.

🌻Sunflower update! The flowers are growing daily and we’re keeping a very close eye on them, but we haven’t had the rain they need so they are still small and will not be flowering for a while yet.
📆We’ve moved the opening date for the field from very early August to early/mid August (we’ve pencilled in the 8th as the opening at the moment but this may yet change).
We can’t wait to welcome you to a field of gold … but we all have to be patient for a little while longer and keep hoping for some good rain. Nature takes the time she needs 🌱
Stay tuned for further updates 🌻😃👍

Harvest update…
The Winter Barley is in the shed, and now it`s time for the Winter Oilseed Rape. Remember its bright yellow bloom from May?
It’s now ripe and ready for harvest.
Once harvested, the seeds will be crushed to extract oil, which will be bottled and sold in local supermarkets for your cooking needs.
Exciting work ahead as we continue the harvest season.
