Imagine mountains of giant straw bales to climb\, jump\, scramble and conquer all safely tucked inside our shiny new shed. \nThere will also be a designated under 5s area for mini explorers\, complete with small bales\, a sandpit and ride-on toys. Our much-loved barrel train rides will also be touring the farm. \nGrown-ups won’t miss out either. Enjoy a locally-roasted coffee\, cakes\, bakes and toasted sandwiches while the kids wear themselves out. \nIt’s the ultimate half-term day out. Come and play\, whatever the weather!
