Ash End House Children's Farm

Really nice place to visit. Grandchildren really enjoyed it. Pre booked our tickets and started the day in the playbarn. The children had so much fun there on the slides etc and loved the large bouncy pillow outside.
Next was the farm. Each child had a card so each activity can be ticked off. Make sure you put the card somewhere safe, as we were sitting down after one activity and had our cards on top of the pram. A large family came close to us and were hovering around and getting really close to the pram staring at the cards, getting very close.
We moved the pram and cards and they walked off. Not sure what they were doing but looked very suspicious.
The children each got a £2 voucher to spend in the shop and a bucket of feed for the animals, which they still had loads of, at the end and fed it to the goats who were more than happy to finish it. Some of the activities were sitting on a horse, a ride on a tractor, feeding a lamb from a bottle, holding some baby chicks and they also got a fresh chicken's egg.
There were a variety of different animals, including lots of baby lambs, kids, piglets and a foal. There was also a reptile area, birds of prey and even alpacas.
Throughly enjoyable day with loads to do there and to keep the children occupied, even a teenager. Would definitely visit again.

Such a lovely farm with endless possibilities of fun for the children. I will definitely be recommending to friends and family. Thanks for a wonderful experience introducing real animals to my baby daughter and young nephew

Lovely farm, my daughter loved it. Loads of animals to interact with and feed. All well looked after as well and the staff was so friendly and great with the children. Parks and cafes on sight as well as a gift shop.

Always a lovely place to visit. Animals well looked after and staff are always friendly and helpful. Plenty of interaction with the animals. We went on a rainy day this time but benefitted from lesser crowds! After seeing how greedy the goats are, pushing their own young out the way for food, i'm convinced our labrador is half goat.

This was my first time visiting a petting farm and I was impressed. The animals are well taken care of, there are several places where you can wash your hands, price is fair, staff are friendly and there is plenty to do. My daughter loved it and I will be taking her back.
I do recommend that you visit here

We had a fun visit here recently. Our little boy enjoyed the animals. They seemed happy, clean and in good condition. The cafe was a bit slow but it was OK.

Great place for kids,staff been very nice, a kids play area is next to the farm and a lovely cafe everyone loved it, ample free space for parking, I will definitely come again and highly recommend for a family

Lovely place to visit with the kiddies..top indoor soft play area (the barn) & if you book before 9.30 the kiddies can play there before they visit the farm...can easily spend over an hour as theres lots to do, lots of slides, big jumping pillow (outside so will need coats especially in the winter!) & a perfect little corner for under 2s..cafe offers hot/cold beverages...(lunch menu available only after 11.30 so we had to settle for the vegetarian sausage batch but was delicious), the farm was a fun part too and the kids loved feeding the animals, tractor ride & taking an egg home!! Only thing I'd suggest is that even though the animals were under a shelter it was still freezing cold so be sure to wrap your little ones up in layers as it gets pretty cold!!! Lovely day out...would definitely reccomend it😊
