You can visit a stunning sunflower field in West Sussex which is opening tomorrow (Friday) – and it’s just a 70-minute drive from south east London.
Tulleys Farm in Crawley will be opening its popular sunflower field to the public, following a sell-out run of initial tickets prior to opening dates being confirmed.
The fields are just off the M25 and Tulleys has advised visitors that the fields would be opened once the sunflowers had begun blooming, with the date finally being confirmed as August 9.
Planted within 12 acres of land, visitors will have the chance to wander through hundreds of vibrant sunflowers and pick their own to take home.
The fields will also feature 25 different props and backdrops for people to take snaps with, ranging from a vintage car to a giant pair of sunglasses.
The festival will also feature live music as well as street food and cocktails, which you can buy from the vendors around the farm, along with drinks served in The Potting Shed for anyone looking to relax after exploring the sunflowers.
Tickets are now available to book from August 9 to September 1, with timeslots available from 9:30am to 5:30pm, along with sunset visits bookable on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays between 6pm and 9pm, with visitors able to photograph the sunflowers at sunset for that ‘Golden Hour’ shot.
The event also has on-site parking, while dogs are also permitted to visit but must be kept on a lead when in the field with their owners.
Ticket prices for adults and children start from £8 for daytime sessions and £11 for sunset visits, and carers are admitted free of charge, with slots bookable up until 4pm for daytime and 7:30pm for sunset.
