Attended the Historic Farm with my parents, had a nice and relaxing time wandering about the grounds. Enjoyed watching the animals in their natural habitats and taking in the atmosphere. Friendly staff; especially liked chatting to the Horse and Donkey keeper (pictured in the groups' photos ploughing the fields). Lovely chap! Food was delicious. Must check out the café which used to be an old school.

Lovely place to visit. Lots of info boards explaining the workings of the various areas.
Plenty poultry and pigs but needing more of the bigger animals eg. More sheep cows.

We didn’t know what to expect from our visit, but we had seen the TV programme some years ago. It was so interesting, the hi-light for us was to actually see an old fashioned horse and plough in action. There were numerous animals and old fashioned farming equipment. The staff were very knowledgeable. The homemade food in the cafe was fantastic. Ideal day out for young and old.

Took our three granddaughters here yesterday, they had a wonderful time, holding day old chicks and ducklings, feeding lambs, pigs & ducks and then collecting eggs and putting the livestock away at the end of the day.
We took a picnic and there was plenty of benches to sit and eat it.
The staff were brilliant, they got the children involved in all the activities.
It cost us £25 for a day ticket, I thought this was real value for money and we also got a 25% off voucher to use again or pass on to a friend.
My wife and I also enjoyed this visit to a no frills historic working farm.
Thank you.

My favourite place to visit ! Been 4 years in a row. Staff go out of there way to make each visit a magical experience. Very hands on. There's lots to do including chick holding, lamb feeding, tours and demonstrations. No visit is the same, there's always something new going on. The cafe and staff are amazing. Would highly recommend to any ages.

A full day of fantastic farm fun! Loved the baby pigs, lambs and calves. Learned about so many things from quilting to milking. The best was the free guided tour that was super informational. Great place to visit with or without kids...truly something for everyone.

We visited over Easter and the whole family loved the farm. We saw the horses in harness working on the land. Lots of animals to see at close quarters. It was not over busy and we looked round at a gentle pace. We had lunch and my daughter and her husband had the ploughman’s lunch. One cheese and one pie and scotch egg. They looked wonderful. A lovely day out for the family.

This place was just amazing. It cost us £25 for a family of 4 and it was worth every penny. Both my children aged 4 and 8 were involved in the activities and the staff were amazing. I held a duck and chick and the staff encouraged both my children to have a touch so they can get used to it and build their confidence. My children fed lambs and had a go at sitting on the horses. There was plenty to see and open fields with chickens running around for the children to play. We had a cuppa in the tea room which was lovely and suitable for children. There was an outside park and benches to make the most of this nice weather. I haven't been before but I would go back!! It was simply a very good family day out! Thank you Xx

We are frequent visitors and it is our ‘must go to’ place. It is a gentle, unassuming peaceful place in a beautiful setting. A real feeling of being amongst a family of people who really care both for their animals and heritage.
We arrive as it opens and leave as it closes. There are no gimmicks just a working farm museum.
The gift shop sells good quality gifts and crafts alongside produce which is truly excellent.
Well done and thank you.
