It felt like a very personal and fulfilling thing to do this Spring, i'm so glad I booked it. Days out around Easter can feel very crowded and overwhelming, however today at the Farm felt like a calming reboot to do something slower-paced and sincere. They couldn't have been more patient while my daughter weighed the milk and filled the bottles. The lambs were just adorable! Loved the cuddles! We were told about the types of lambs and explained the difference in their wool. It was a lovely surprise to craft a wooden sheep and wrap it in yarn made from the wool from that very Farm (treasure that in the memory box!) Finishing off with a great selection of delicious cakes and a proper made brew! Loved it all! We enjoyed meeting Brutus the turkey and getting to pet him too. Thank you so much for such a brilliant afternoon, will definitely look into booking this again in the future 🩷🐑 xx
Highly recommend this!

Wonderful experience! Lovely hosts, animal welfare considered at all times, adults and children made to feel very welcome on the farm and included in all activities. Independence encouraged. Children mix their lamb feed and encouraged to interact with the lambs. Included a brew a cake, squash and biscuits and an adorable craft. Hosts were happy to answer any farming questions. Lots of photo opportunities. An uplifting experience for all! Went with children aged 4, 7 and 12. And would definitely recommend!

An enchanting experience in a real working farm environment. Claire and Nell made us feel very welcome and explained the process well. The lambs were adorable. Be prepared and dress appropriately we had hay, milk, and lambs all over us. They were all so cute. The coffee and cakes were a lovely touch. Had a five year old with us and he loved every minute. I would definitely recommend this activity to any animal lover.
