From the moment we arrived, every member of staff was warm, friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble, and it was clear how passionate everyone is about helping children learn through hands-on experiences. Our children absolutely loved feeding the pigs, goats, sheep and cattle, holding the chicks, collecting eggs, exploring the farm and completing the treasure hunt. Watching them build confidence, ask questions and learn about the animals in such a natural environment was incredibly special. Finishing the day with an ice lolly was the perfect ending! As an early years setting, we really value opportunities for children to connect with nature and experience learning beyond the classroom, and Farmer Gow's provided exactly that. The farm is beautifully kept, well organised and feels incredibly safe for young children to explore. Thank you for helping us create such precious memories with our families. It was the perfect way to celebrate the end of the nursery year, and we are already looking forward to visiting again. We couldn't recommend Farmer Gow's highly enough! · via Google [Anthony Peters](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/111181994165827740655/reviews) ★★★★★ An absolutely unforgettable experience. Incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and friendly staff (especially Dale who is a credit to his profession). Fantastic food and amenities; absolutely perfect for a family day out. The highlight of the experience has to be the feeding of the animals where you get up close and personal and meet the animals and learn all about the farm. The best farm in Oxfordshire, no question! · via Google [Stephen Harness](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/117405498300679764829/reviews) ★★★★★ A good farm animal petting & feeding experience for kids. Sheep, goats and pigs are all let in amongst the visitors to be fed by hand. Chicks are also handed to kids to hold. There are some other friendly farm animals outside. Plus a good hay bale maze and play areas for the kids. There’s a basic cafe and shop. It’s light on the more in depth education, focussing mainly on the experience. But what they do, they do well and there’s 2-3 hours of amusement for young children. They need to improve their approaches to inclusive access. 50p off concessions is hardly going to make it accessible for the less well off. Especially when there’s really no easy public transport links. Maybe a substantial discount if you can prove you came by bike, public transport or walked? · via Google [Michelle Stoddard](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/115226547930734877165/reviews) ★★★★★ Wow what a fantastic family day out!! We came today and had a great day the new playareas looked great and lots of fun was had by all ages. My highlight was the meet the animal experience which was led by Abigail and Dale who were very friendly and knowledable about the animals. We had lamb and chicken cuddles and also fed the cheeky goats and cows as well as seeing the cutest piglets. We stopped for lunch in the cafe which was well priced and very tasty. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Great value for money. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x48714baf32053527:0xaed60d2accc934c6!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) Visitors say this farm offers fantastic, interactive animal experiences, including holding chicks and lambs, and features clean, well-maintained play areas.
