点评:Very disappointed with our visit to Kenyon Hall Farm today.
We visited specifically for berry picking after being unable to book strawberry picking online as it had sold out. We checked beforehand and knew that berry picking did not require advance booking, as stated on both the website and the farm signage.
However, when we arrived, we were told that berry picking was unavailable until 1pm due to staff lunch breaks. This information was not communicated anywhere on the website or at the entrance. As a parent of a disabled child, we have to carefully plan our outings around medication, meals and routines, so this unexpected delay was extremely frustrating and inconvenient.
We adjusted our plans and returned at the time we were told. We had been informed that both tayberries and blackberries would be available for picking, but on our return we discovered that only blackberries were available. We had been particularly looking forward to picking tayberries, and after already having to wait and rearrange our day, it felt like a wasted trip.
The biggest issue was the lack of communication. If berry picking is unavailable during certain times, this should be clearly stated on the website and signage. Staff should also avoid confirming the availability of specific fruits unless they are certain.
Overall, the experience was disappointing and poorly organised, especially for families who need to plan ahead. We expected much better communication and left feeling let down.

我们特意来这里采摘浆果,因为之前在网上预订草莓采摘名额已满,无法预订。我们事先查过,网站和农场的指示牌上都写着采摘浆果不需要提前预订。
然而,当我们到达时,却被告知由于工作人员午休,浆果采摘要到下午1点才开始。这个信息在网站或入口处都没有提及。作为残疾孩子的家长,我们必须精心安排每次出行,包括孩子的服药、用餐和日常作息,所以这次意料之外的延误让我们感到非常沮丧和不便。
我们调整了行程,在被告知的时间返回。之前我们被告知泰莓和黑莓都可以采摘,但回来后却发现只有黑莓可以采摘。我们原本特别期待采摘泰莓,但不得不等待并重新安排行程,感觉这次旅行白跑一趟了。
最大的问题是缺乏沟通。如果某些时段不提供浆果采摘,应在网站和标牌上明确标示。工作人员也应避免在不确定的情况下确认特定水果的供应情况。
总的来说,这次体验令人失望,组织混乱,尤其对于需要提前计划的家庭而言。我们原本期待更好的沟通,结果却令人失望。
