A Working Smallholding
Eplet is an active smallholding. Fruit and berries from the farm are pressed into juice in the cellar. The farm shop sells homemade juice, eggs from the farm’s own hens, and seasonal produce.
In front of the main house is a small vegetable garden where guests are welcome to pick produce during the growing season. There is also a small rabbit enclosure where children can meet and interact with the rabbits.
Guests stay close to a working farm throughout the season, while remaining independent from the day-to-day farming activities.
