This is a very unique experience for both children and adults that you won't find in many other establishments.
Our farm park is packed with many different animals, from goats, sheep, and donkeys to aplacas, ferrets, and reptiles, plus many, many more.
This fantastic opportunity provides our visitors with an exciting and fun day out, where they can interact and be hands-on with many different animals and reptiles.
KEEPER FOR THE DAY EXPERIENCE - AGE 8 yrs +
Our minimum age for the Keeper Experience is 8 years old, and all children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult who must be present on site either in the cafe or on the farm for the duration. (We do have a nice cafe, so it's a chance for parents to sit down, relax, and have a coffee!).
A keeper for the day will gain a variety of skills from cleaning, feeding, and grooming the animals, as well as learning about their origins, habitats, and feeding habits.
If there is a particular animal or reptile that you would like to spend more time with throughout the day, we can arrange this. Remember, this is your day, so we will be guided by you.
