As of August 30th, 2025, a hidden gem has been thriving in the Chiltern Hills, just northwest of London. The Stonor Farm, a sunflower farm, has been captivating visitors with its unique offerings and stunning natural surroundings.
The journey to the farm is as picturesque as the fields themselves. Travelers can take a train from Paddington Station to the riverside town of Henley-on-Thames, and then embark on a scenic walk through the rolling Chiltern Hills, woodlands, and a deer park. Along the way, they'll encounter the National Trust House that was once the residence of Catherine Carey, one of Henry VIII's alleged offspring.
Upon reaching the farm, visitors are greeted by two hectares of vibrant sunflowers - larger than two football pitches. The farm has thoughtfully cut footpaths through the flowers, allowing for easy exploration. Visitors can purchase the sunflowers for a bargain, with all proceeds going to charity. The farm also hosts themed events throughout August, including sunflower yoga and sunflower sound baths.
In addition to the sunflower fields, the Stonor Farm also produces its own sparkling wine from the chalk-rich soils and harvests honey, providing visitors with a truly unique experience. With ample parking and easy access from Henley-on-Thames, the Stonor Farm has become a must-visit destination for those seeking a scenic and memorable day out in the Chiltern Hills.
