Clarkson's Farm is set to return for series three next month

Jeremy Clarkson’s Diddly Squat farm shop is back open but has failed to attracted a big crowd following miserable bank holiday weekend weather.

The Clarkson’s Farm star’s popular farm shop in Oxfordshire has welcomed back visitors with not long to go until the new series airs.


The shop had been temporarily closed following highly-publicised rows with the local council about the business.

However, weather conditions during the Easter weekend meant not many people made the journey to visit the farm.

Pictures obtained by the Daily Mail show the shop opened but very quiet on Friday despite the attraction usually seeing crowds of visitors during bank holidays.

The car park is usually packed with guests but only a few cars can be seen using it.

According to the publication, a staff member stated: "This is supposed to be one of the busiest weekends of the year - where is everyone?

“The weather has been dreadful but that hasn't put people off in the past."

It was announced by the former Top Gear star earlier this year that the shop had to temporarily close until March.

The farm, opened by Clarkson in 2020, is a staple tourist attraction among locals and visitors to the area.

Clarkson’s Farm is set to return next month for its third series, with fans excitedly awaiting the new episodes.

Last month, Clarkson’s partner Lisa Hogan clapped back at complaints regarding Diddly Squat products.

Hogan responded to some complaints after taking to Instagram to promote new unisex perfumes.She announced: "The Diddly Squat perfumes have arrived!

“"Both are ambidextrous," she continued, confusing the term with unisex. "This one is called Drive and it's a bit kind of 'naughty sexy' is how I describe it.

"It smells great on Jeremy and they come in little bags like that.

"And then... oh, Wet. You put it on after you've had a shower or a bath and it just all comes out and smells amazing. Both are quite fresh and light, they're not clingy. Everyone loves them."

While the post was met with plenty of positive comments, one slammed the design of the products.

Responding, Hogan penned: “Take that up with jeremyclarkson1, It’s his hand writing - we like to keep it authentic."
