ABOUT THE Garden Room
If you enjoy coming to the Christmas shop in autumn, then you’ll love the Garden Room for the remaining seasons! This smaller shop, adjacent to Roots Café, offers an eclectic selection where each item is chosen to enhance your space without compromising your commitment to the environment.
The shop carries an assortment of dried flowers and seeds, vases made from glass, stone and ceramics, along with supplies for flower arranging. Additionally, you’ll discover exquisite candles, candlesticks and chandeliers that can help you create a delightful atmosphere at home.
Blackthorpe Barn is a step-free location with dedicated accessible parking near the entrance and two accessible toilets, one in the cafe, and one in the courtyard.

What an honour to have been voted the 2024 Regional Muddy Stilettos Winner for the Best Lifestyle Store in Suffolk and Cambridgeshire!
Thank you to each one who voted for us – it has made our year, especially considering we have only just opened the Garden Room a few months ago.

With the sun now shining, the longer days and the ground warming up, the farm team are busy on the fields drilling this years Spring Malting Barley crop.
The variety being sown is Laureate from Syngenta. This is a variety with dual use which means it can be used for both brewing and malt distilling.
So the next time you’re enjoying a bottle of beer or a malt whisky, just think, you could be enjoying the delights of some Rougham Estate grown Malting Barley.
That would surely make it taste even better!?
