Pop the dates in your diary and head down to the farm for a sheep-load of fun during our much-loved Woolly Week!

If you enjoyed meeting our lambs over Easter, you’ll be thrilled with what we’ve got in store. We’re going full-on fluffy with a whole week dedicated to our woolly friends, think sheep-themed activities, hands-on fun for the little ones, and baa-rilliant surprises around every corner.

Best of all, all the extra activities are included in your farm admission, no extra costs, just heaps of fleecefilled fun!

So, pull on your wellies, gather your flock, and get ready for a week of sheepish smiles and countryside adventures. You’d be baaarmy to miss it!

As usual, each day we will be running tractor-trailer rides from 11am – 4 pm and Meet the Animals from 10am – 4pm, but we will also have the additional special events and activities shown below.

Extra activities include Sheep Shearing demonstrations, shear your own foam sheep cutout, interactive pig feeding, sheep ctaft activity, guinea pig feeding, pig racing, sheep trail, storytelling with Bo Peep, Bouncy castle, and face painting.
