Looking for something to keep the kids smiling this half term? Come and join us on the farm for a day full of fresh air, adventure and hands-on fun!
Meet our delightful animals including Highland Cattle, Reptiles, Meerkats, Sheep, Donkeys, Pigs, Emus, Wallabies and Tortoises! There's also some new arrivals.....the Goat Kids!! Be sure to pop down to the Ark to say hello to the new arrivals. You'll even be able to take a stroll through their paddock outside and meet the kids up close. Plus we'll have our hugely popular event 'Meet the Reptiles' and the interactive 'Tortoise Bathing' returning too.
As well as our super fun half term activities, we'll be joined by the amazing Neighbourhood Spider, The Bat, and the incredible Girl of Steel swoop in for a day full of heroic fun on Monday 25th May!
Whether it's feeding the goats, cheering on the ferrets in the race or simply enjoying the countryside, there's something for everyone. We even have the UK's largest jumping pillow, The Enchanted Hamlet multizone all weather play area and short pony rides! You can book ahead online or simply pay on arrival.
