Visited with our kids on a beautiful, sunny day. Great place lovely animals all well kept. You can see the animals really happy, and a site is very clean. There was an on site cafe. Also a bonus was the on-site vineyard. I we bought a bottle of wine and it was lovely

What a great place to visit and excellent value for money. Arrived at 11am and didnt leave until 4.30pm. The staff were friendly, the venue is beautiful, and the animals were just amazing, especially the Highland Cows, Alpacas, oh, and the Pig Racing. 2 1/2, 10, 17, 18, 48 and 50 year old, all of whom would go again!

We loved our visit today, travelled from Cornwall to Gatwick. Stopped with you rather than the services and it was the best decision! My 3 year old had so much fun and ran off a load of energy 😍

We visited Cholderton Rare Breeds Farm for Highland Cow Day and absolutely loved it! The staff were welcoming, friendly, and clearly passionate about the animals. The Highland cows were the highlight of our trip — such a special experience to see them up close. The farm itself is beautifully kept, with lots of different rare breeds to meet, and it has a really relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere. Everything felt well-organised, and it was easy to spend hours exploring. We had such a fantastic time that we’re already planning our next visit — we’ll be back on the 18th! 100% would recommend this farm to anyone looking for a fun, unique, and memorable day out.
