Meet our animals, assist us with our feed rounds, pet them and play. 

Pre - booking essential

Visit a real  working small farm

We are proud to be able to share our family farm with you. On our V.I.P Experience you will shadow our farmer guide on his / her morning feed and care round. You will get to meet all of our animals, help us to prepare their breakfast or dinner. Hand feed many of them inside their paddocks or houses, pet our friendly animals and learn all about them.                      

Our V.I.P Experience lasts between 1hr 30mins and 2 hours. We take our time to answer all your questions and include you all in our mornings farm duties.    

 Our farmers will tell you all about our animals, their names, the history of how they came to our farm, interesting facts about each type of breed and are happy to answer any questions you may have. You will have time to play with some of our friendly animals and take your own photos. Our animals love a selfie, and we love to see them on your social media so please tag us.

 This experience is the perfect choice if you are looking for some exclusive time with our animals for just you, your family, friends or as part of a small mixed group. Each session is for up to 8 people. You can choose to book for up to 5 people and be part of a mixed group of other visitors or choose to book for a private group of 6- 8 people.

Who is the visit    Suitable for?

This experience is suited to 3 years + however when young children are in attendance, we may not go into paddocks of larger animals for safety reasons. Under 3's may attend free of charge however we may ask you to carry them when we are around animals who like to jump up.   

Our land is on hills and the paddocks can get muddy in wet weather therefore we are sadly not able to accommodate wheelchairs or pushchair. If you wish to visit with a wheelchair, please email us and we may be able to arrange to bring some animals to the barn / yard area for you to meet and feed which is more accessible.
