What we'll do
Families with children with SEND are warmly invited to join us for a fun-filled day on the farm, specially designed to be inclusive and enjoyable for all. Accompanying adults DO need a ticket. Meet and interact with our super-friendly animals—get up close to goats, sheep, donkeys and chickens while learning about different breeds and how we lovingly care for them. Enjoy a peaceful nature walk, take part in a calming, hands-on craft activity and refuel with a delicious, nutritious lunch. It’s the perfect way to connect with nature and create lasting memories together. We can’t wait to welcome you to the farm!

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
