Farmyard & playground

The farmyard has been a favourite day out for children since 1973. There are so many farmyard friends to meet, from Eugenie the rare breed Suffolk Punch mare to Itsy and Bitsy the pygmy goats. 

Take the secret tunnel to the playground for exciting woodland adventures, with tall towers to climb, slides, swings, sand and water play.
