What we'll do

We have lots of interactive fun with our animals and learn a lot about them, their care and welfare. We have a 17 acre farm to explore including our exciting woodlands where we can forage, do crafts and make lunch together over our campfire. We get to meet great new people and work as a team to achieve our goals set for the day. We can set up our own obstacle course which is fun and where we can take the ponies for their daily exercise alongside us. We can check the chickens and ducks for eggs , interact with the small animals and get to meet the meerkats. In the woods we get to build dens, find resources for crafts and look out for the wildlife that lives down there. Due to the popularity of this camp, and the repetition of our activities, we suggest you only book a maximum of 3 session to have the best camp experience. We will restrict number of sessions per child if we are oversubscribed to reach as many children for our camp experience as possible
