Diddly Squat Farm Shop and the Farmer's Dog are both open to visitors! After a brief closure to the Farm Shop earlier this year, fans can now visit again and make a trip to the idyllic Cotswolds. The exact location of the Farm Shop is 5-12 Chipping Norton Road, Chadlington, Chipping Norton, OX7 3PE. Once there, fans will be able to experience some of the key locations featured on the Clarkson-fronted show. While visiting the site, many will hope to catch a glimpse of the rising stars of the show, including fan favourite Kaleb Cooper, straight-man and farm management consultant Charlie Ireland, the humorous Gerald Cooper, plus farm shop front-woman and Jezza's partner, Lisa Hogan. The iconic shop has become a public attraction since it opened, with thousands flocking to it each year, much to the dislike of some of the community. For visitors coming from outside the Cotswolds, the trip can take two hours from central London by car, or two and a half hours by public transport. If fans are staying nearby there is the X9 bus from The Bell Hotel in Charlbury that will take them straight past the 1000 acres site and near the Farm Shop. 3 Queues are a common feature at the popular farm shop in the Cotswolds Credit: SWNS Previously, the farm also had a functioning restaurant on location called The Big View Café, but this was shut down due to excessive traffic. In response, this series of the hit show followed the former Top Gear presenter's trials and tribulations of trying to open a pub. Viewers watched each episode as Jeremy struggled to find a suitable pub for his new venture, despite the sheer number of venues available. Finally, Jeremy found a pub, which was formerly known as the Windmill, and renovated and renamed it to the Farmer's Dog. The latest weapon in Jeremy's farming armoury is located off the Asthall Barrow Roundabout, Burford OX18 4HJ. As it is a working farm, visitors are best to stick to the Farm Shop and Pub - so do not expect to see Jeremy riding around in his infamous Lamborghini tractor. 3 The renamed pub opened last year and is already a popular destination Credit: Adrian Sherratt What can you expect at The Farmer's Dog? The pub, which champions British farmers, is sure to be on top of fans' bucket lists. Jeremy's main reason behind opening the pub was that he wanted everything to come from British farms within a certain radius, so don't expect to see any Heinz ketchup on offer. Instead, visitors to the pub can treat themselves to the steak pie, ham hock terrine, rhubarb crumble, and a wide range of other menu items, all knowing that it has come from local farmers. Since the pub opened, it has been extremely busy, and after the show aired, its popularity has soared. And so, for fans hoping to pay a visit in the near future, you may have to wait a while. Bookings for the new Oxfordshire landmark open each month but get snapped up fast, with forums set up on social media helping fans get their chance to visit.

Jeremy Clarkson rages at SNP 'communism' in rant on ScotRail fares
JEREMY Clarkson has confirmed what many of us long suspected: The man is an idiot. What other conclusions could you possibly draw after hearing him describe the end of peak rail fares in Scotland as 'literally the definition of insanity". It is, of course, not. Ending peak rail fares – a relatively popular policy which even has the support of the Scottish Conservatives – is also not 'communism', despite what Clarkson may manage to say with a straight face. But it gets worse. READ MORE: Scotch whisky giant launches £375m cost-cutting drive as US tariffs hit industry Apparently unashamed of his increasingly obvious role as a kind of Nigel Farage for the intellectually delusional, Clarkson went on to claim that taxpayers in England were being forced to foot the bill for the end of peak rail fares in Scotland. Writing in the Sun, Clarkson said: "If you're a refuse collector in Luton or a nurse in Wolverhampton or a brickie in Huddersfield, some of the money you pay in tax each month is being used to make a Scottish lawyer's weekly trip from Glasgow to Edinburgh a little bit cheaper.' The nonsense was hinged on the fact that the Scottish Government had initially brought back peak rail fares after a trial found that cutting them did not change people's behaviour enough to make the policy self-funding – although it did lead to an increase in rail use. Clarkson insisted the SNP Government was 'trying the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result', ignoring the fact that they are not expecting a different result at all. Jeremy Clarkson had some bizarre things to say about ending peak rail fares (Image: Prime Video) Nevertheless, he concluded that is the definition of insanity – and GB News gave Clarkson a glowing write up. The alt-right broadcaster reported: 'While 'eco mentalists' [origin of quote not given], trade unions, commuters and even business leaders in Scotland support the move, Clarkson is one of the few to call it out publicly.' The Jouker wonders why Clarkson might find himself the lone voice opposed to the policy? His ranting went down less well with users of the Scotland subreddit. One person summed Clarkson's contribution up as: "Multi-millionaire, tax-dodging old man yells at government for attempting to make public transport affordable for your average person." A second quipped: "But buying a farm to reduce your inheritance tax is not I suppose eh Jeremy?" Legal disclaimer: Clarkson has since insisted he wasn't telling the truth when he, in 2021, told the Sunday Times that the "critical thing" in his decision to buy farmland was avoiding tax.

Jeremy Clarkson reveals he's found his ‘true calling' after being called into action on Diddly Squat farm
JEREMY Clarkson has revealed he has found his 'true calling' — being a cow midwife. The TV star, 65, who runs the 1,000-acre Diddly Squat farm in Oxfordshire, said he was called into action after one of his cows struggled to give birth last week. 1 Jeremy Clarkson has revealed his 'true calling' - being a midwife for cows He wrote in The Sunday Times: 'I was on my own, and I don't mind admitting I was nervous.' A calf 'got stuck for 90 minutes', and he had a 'tug-of-war' with it until it came out. He said: 'I rushed over to it, scraping the gunk from its face before putting a bit of straw up its nose to make it sneeze and start breathing. 'And it did. And I simply cannot tell you how that feels. 'I was exhausted, my arms felt as though they were on fire, I was covered in slimy cow juice and faeces and I was smiling a smile that I simply didn't think would be possible in any kind of workplace.' He added: 'I don't know what would have happened had I not been there. But I was. 'And now there is the most adorable little calf you've ever seen. 'I'm not exaggerating. I was enveloped in a Ready Brek glow of absolute joy, from the soles of my feet to the follicles on the top of my head. 'I've had some happy moments in farming but nothing gets even remotely close to this.' Clarkson later said he was alerted to another cow giving birth by his 'moo call' alarm system, adding: 'I leapt out of bed and into the shed as if I'd been fired out of a destroyer's 5in gun. Clarkson's Farm shares behind-the-scenes footage ahead of series 4 'And I sat there with the mother cow through the predawn blackness, and then the emergent birdsong, until five thirty, when I was called into action once again. 'I missed a whole night's sleep to bring that one into the world, and I didn't mind one bit. 'Because I ended up with another beautiful, wobbly-legged, blue-eyed bundle of perfection. 'And now here I am, a month off my 65th birthday, at a time when I should be thinking of taking up watercolour painting or pickleball. And all I want to do from now on is to be a midwife. For cows.'
