Description
Healeys Cornish Cyder Farm is a family-run farm in the heart of the Cornish countryside, making award-winning cyders, wines, spirits, juices, preserves, and sauces for nearly 40 years. Since planting their first trees in 1986, they have grown to become the largest independent cyder-maker in Cornwall and the first distillery for 300 years. It’s a welcoming place where visitors can explore, taste, and enjoy the true flavour of Cornwall.
The farm is home to Cornwall’s favourite Rattler Cornish Cloudy Cyder, friendly farm animals, and the lively Lower Courtyard. Visitors can enjoy the Self-Guided Tour with access to the press house, production halls, museum, distillery, cellars, and the Healeys Tasting Room with 60+ tastings available. There is also The Old Bottlery Restaurant, the Cyder Farm Shop, Rattler Cyder Tanks, and special experiences like the Healeys Guided Tour and Vintage Tractor Ride.
Self Guided Tour prices start from £12.60 for Adults and £6.30 for Children (5–17), with Family tickets at £34.00 (2 Adult and 2 Child), and Under 5’s Free all year round. Healeys Guided Tour, Vintage Tractor Ride, and Family Ticket + Tractor Ride options are also available with specific pricing, including Adult Guided Tour at £25.00 and Vintage Tractor Ride from £6.00 for Adults.
With free entry to the farm and plenty to see and taste, it’s a great day out for families, couples, and groups. From sampling over 60 products to meeting farm animals and relaxing with a cream tea, there is something for everyone. Healeys offers a fun, flavour-filled experience and a chance to discover how apples go from pip to pour in true Cornish style.

Features
- Friendly Farm Animals: Down to the courtyard and beyond, see what furry friends can be met along the way. Our friendly animals are part of our family and whilst some spend many hours in other fields, they are brought down to the farm most days to be fussed over. Enjoy lazy afternoons in the courtyard with a cream tea (and a refreshing pint of course!), peacock-spotting and letting the little ones watch our cute pygmy goats on their trampoline.
- The Old Bottlery Restaurant: Whether it’s a helping of warming Cyderman’s stew, a plump, juicy pork burger, or simply a swift sandwich or salad you’re after, the Old Bottlery is the perfect place to savour the best of Healeys’ flavours. All washed down with a glass of one of our Cornish Cyders, of course.
- The Lower Courtyard: Our very own cobbled sun trap, right in heart of the farm. The lower courtyard is always a hive of activity at the farm, with families enjoying a Cornish Cream Tea in the sunshine, little ones posing on the vintage tractor or friends re-uniting over a pint of Rattler or Cornish Gold. Dine, drink and chat... the lower courtyard is yours to enjoy!
- Rattler Cyder Tanks!: We have 6 x newly installed cyder tanks, each holding an impressive 100,000 litres of freshly pressed apple juice ready to be fermented. You'll recognise the tanks on the right, particularly the first of 12 x 50,000 litre tanks with the giant Rattler snake on the front! We believe the Rattler Cyder tank must be the most photographed tank in the world, with thousands of cyder fans waiting to get a selfie in front of the tall stainless steel vat, each and every year. With free entry, you'll be able to add a snap to your holiday album too!
- 60+ Tastings Available!: We opened the Healeys Tasting Room in April 2022 and it is located where the old farm shop used to be! The Tasting Room will take you on the ultimate Healeys journey of sight, smell and taste as you learn more about cyder, spirits, wine, jam and soft drinks. Fool around on a summer's afternoon in the Scrumpy garden, grab a photo whilst surfing the Rattler wave, find out if you're as strong as our jam chef or nose the various botanicals we use to make gin!
- Cyder Farm Shop: The world's largest Rattler Cornish Cloudy Cyder shop with a Rattler-inspired VW Camper inside... different, right!? Pick up all the Healeys products you’ve got a taste for – from cyder, jams, preserves and country wines, to fresh-pressed juices, spirits and speciality food. You’ll also find gifts, souvenirs and collectables exclusive to Healeys, to remember your visit by.
Find out what’s on at Healeys – all year round: From dunking your way to the Cornish Apple Bobbing Championships crown, to letting the scent of spice and sparkle of Christmas lights envelop you at our festive market, we love welcoming visitors to the farm to celebrate the changing seasons our way.
