What visitors say

Dr Jamie Smith

The Ice Cream Farm is a wonderful place to visit if you're in tilhos part of Cheshire. Easy parking on site and friendly staff await and the facility itself is a place you can spend several hours at since it's about far more than ice cream. For those with children The Ice Cream Farm is like a mini theme park with some wonderful facilities to keep kids entertained and the entry price is just a few pounds. And of course there is the ice cream too! The ice cream is outstanding and certainly a highlight. Highly recommend a visit.

What a great place to with children of all ages whether able bodied or wheelchair bound . Plenty of space to get around with pushchairs too . Had a car park and overflow car park across the road. I assumed it was just an ice cream place with. Lots of different flavours. I was so wrong . So much to do , water activities ( suggest you take spare clothes and shoes ) this is under cover but open . All sorts of play activities, soft play area , large outside trampoline, crazy golf , searching for gold in the Cove. Shows for the scavenger egg hunt There are extra prices for some activities but if you buy them and don’t use all the activities on the day it’s valid for 1 year . There is a cafe separate from a big ice cream shop that’s got every ice cream you can think of . Most activities are outside but I will definitely comeback here . The whole set up is great.

Nice place for small kids but over priced for what it is. Better off just buying entrance tickets and using pay as you go. I had a 6 year old, 3 year old and 2 year old with me. The water place was the most popular with the 3. The golf was too busy we couldn’t even do it and the finding gems was a rip off. The ice cream was really expensive and not really worth the hype. The indoor play area was a good size and the outdoor strawberry play area ok for toddlers. My 6 year old enjoyed the water play only. For £17pp a theme park like gullivers is a better option for older kids.

Amazing play place, have been visiting since 2021 and the environment and staff have never let us down. There is an amazing range of activities for all ages. There is the main play park in the middle when you first enter the park, there's also mini golf which is enjoyable, there is the honeycomb water & sand play place, there's also a soft play which also has an area above for 8 and over (THERE IS FLASHING AND STROBE LIGHTING ON THE TOP, NOT SUITABLE FOR EPILEPTIC), there's a new sensory play park with ziplines, the marshmallow mounds are a personal favourite (basically they are bouncy trampoline type things), theres go-karts but they are now card only and there is a food area but I dont really like the food
