Absolutely love our visit to the farm today. Chloe was amazing showing us around the animals and talking about the animals. This was good value for money and when in the area again we will try to visit again. Well worth a visit and recommend anyone to go. If you want to feed animals book in advance to ensure you have a slot as this is very popular. Again thank you Chloe seems to be a well knowledgeable member of staff

We had a great visit today with a 4 year old and a 2 year old. There was plenty to amuse them both for well over 4 hours, a mix of indoor slides and soft play area, outdoor rides and play area, but primarily varied and real hands on animal activity with a wide range of creatures, both large and small. Abi was very informative and patient with our girls, who loved every minute of their time there. Thank you very much, we felt it was great value!

Big sheep little cow hosted my daughter's 5th birthday party a couple of weeks ago and it was absolutely fantastic. Abby and Coco were the party hosts and they were amazing. From the minute I arrived I felt at ease as I was ran through everything that was going to happen, in what order and shown to our party room. The farm tour was so good, Abby and Coco were very knowledgeable and were very patient making sure each child got chance to stroke or hold the animals. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the barrel ride, softplay and the access to the go karts outside too. The food was also fab too. A selection of warm and cold foods, as well as a sweetie platter which the kids as well as adults loved! Overall from start to finish the party was great and I felt like I could also enjoy my daughter's party too as I only had to bring the cake, party bags were also included. If you are considering booking a party here, I would highly recommend it.

It's small but more intimate because of it. Feeding time for example, bottle for each child, not a quick pass a bottle around moment. Small play area but boosted with go-karts and trikes.
