Is the Pumpkin Patch suitable for wheelchair users or those with restricted mobility?
We have planted two grass tracks in the pumpkin patch to enable easier access, however this is on a field, so access may be difficult depending on the weather conditions.
How many pumpkins can we purchase?
As many as you wish, we shall have approx 8000!
How much are the Pumpkins?
They range from 50p for a very small pumpkin, to £10 for a huge prize winner!
Are there staff on hand if we need help?
Yes, staff on site at all times in branded Pulham Patch clothing.
Are dogs allowed at The Pulham Patch?
Unfortunately due to the cleanliness and safety of visitors dogs cannot enter the Maize Maze, Play Area, Pumpkins and Flowers. However should visitors wish to use the footpath to Tyrells Wood which runs along the site after their visit to the Pulham Patch they’re very welcome to do so meaning dogs are allowed in the car park.
Is there disabled access?
Yes, but bare in mind the site is a field on a farm. The entrance and track around the maze are very flat.
Do I have to pre-book tickets?
Pre-booking is an option but pay on the gate is also an option.
Are there Baby Changing facilities?
We have a seating area and portable toilets, but no designated baby changing facilities.
Can we bring our own food?
Yes, you’re very welcome to. Katherines Kitchen is based on site also as an option and rubbish bins are available to dispose of rubbish.
