Permanently closed.

The Small Victorian working farm opened its gates originally in 1981, but was forced to shut in 2001 following the UK-wide foot and mouth disease outbreak. We made the decision to reopen in 2017, fitted with a brand new Tearoom.

Good Morning from Daphne & John! ☀️

The farm is incredibly quiet without our visitors, and we’re really missing all of our regular faces. 🤍

The girls are still working hard away behind the scenes, some of our animals are getting ready to head off to exciting new homes, and life has certainly been keeping us busy lately.

Unfortunately, we’ve also been having a difficult run with our heavy horses and recurring abscesses — and with big horses, these things are never small issues. We’re taking everything day by day and doing all we can for them.

We’ve got lots of updates to share very soon, so make sure you stay tuned to keep up with everything happening on the farm 🐴🌾

On Tuesday 21st April, our sassy Shetland pony, Primrose, turned 22! 🎉

And what a diva she still is… rocking that sassy mane, full of attitude, and still very much the boss of the field 💁‍♀️🐴

Age is just a number for Primrose — she’s living proof that a little sass never fades ✨

Good morning from Dandelion 🩷🤍🐮
Growing bigger and stronger every day, and always ready for a little playtime with our staff during mucking out ✨

The farm feels very quiet right now, although the animals are still keeping us busy 🐮🩷
We’re all taking some downtime this week and trying to adjust to our new routine of not being open, which still feels so strange at the moment.

We are not closing to the public without taking a moment to reflect on what an incredible, but also challenging, few years it has been for us as a family.

From Covid to everything else in between, it has certainly been a journey.

We have had the absolute best time sharing the last 9 years with you all. Our staff and volunteers have truly become family, and it has been so special to watch so many people grow and flourish alongside us.

Thank you for being such a huge part of our story and for all the memories we have made together .

Our daily chores on the farm continue, and we will still be sharing this journey with you.

The gates may be closed to the public, but we are still here, caring for all the animals and continuing life on the farm behind the scenes.

There is still so much love, hard work, and plenty of animal content to come, and we can’t wait to keep sharing it all with you 🤍🐑🐷
