As well as these beautiful and unusual animals to see, the farm has three marvelous children’s play areas. John Deere Pedal Tractors and Roller Racers can be ridden in their dedicated play areas by the children, who are most welcome to bottle feed the lambs at the appropriate time of the year.

A lovely coffee shop serving Lancashire produce is also on site, or you are welcome to take your own picnics and eat inside or outside.
Their farm supplies are sourced within a 10 mile radius of the farm.
