Pick Your Own Pumpkins

What makes the perfect pumpkin? Do you like to find the largest one, the roundest one or a gnarled one?

Take your pick of the Doddington Pumpkin Patch this October with thirty different varieties of pumpkins, squashes and gourds to choose from.

Enter via the Gatehouse in front of the Elizabethan Hall and follow our spooky walk through the Kitchen Garden to the Pumpkin Patch.

Wellies are essential as it can get muddy. Halloween fancy dress is encouraged.

Patch open 1-31 October, 10am-4pm daily, while stocks last. Free entry, pay for what you pick. Prices start from £4 dependent on size.

*Dogs are not permitted in the Pumpkin Patch but are welcome on leads through the Kitchen Garden and to the Pumpkin Patch gate*

Golden Bottoms

Keep an eye out for golden bottoms! We’ll be hiding some golden bottomed pumpkins in the patch throughout October. If you find one you’ll win the pumpkin, a family ticket to Christmas in the Hall and a 4ft Doddington homegrown Christmas tree so keep your eyes peeled!

Make a day of it

Enjoy the autumn colour in the Gardens – open daily 10am-4pm with tickets available on arrival. Admission applies for garden entry.

Make a day of it and visit our Farm Shop, Bauble Barn and enjoy seasonal treats in our Farm Shop Café or Grain Store Café.

Pumpkin Recipes

At Doddington, we always try our best to limit food waste. When you carve your Halloween pumpkin this year, make sure to use the inside of your pumpkin to make a delicious dish. You can even make a tasty seasonal snack with the seeds…
