Reviews of Beetle Bank Farm
S. H.
Great place, friendly staff and really friendly animals. Lovely day out, my son loved holding the guinea pig and feeding the animals, although.. I think I enjoyed it more.
Great sized play area and lots of space to run around outside.
S. W.
Great place. Plenty for kids to do. Outdoor play area. Indoor animal petting area where you can hold a guinea pig or rabbit and Feed the goats & sheep. Friendly staff. The menu in the cafe has plenty of choice. My 5 year niece had a birthday party here and they had a fab time.
B. R.
Fantastic day, lovely staff, friendly Animals.
My kids( and me) loved stroking and feeding the animals cafe is value for money. We will be purchasing a family annual pass.
E. R.
My 7 year old son loved his day here. Lots to do and reasonable cafe prices. Plenty of space to bring your own picnic too.
D. B.
Lots for children to do. We took 2 children and were there for 4 hours. It was busy but not crowded. Plenty of space and a nice walk to see the animals. It also has a room for children to be creative with pencils and paint. Three large bouncy castles, free once you enter the farm. Good value
C. M.
Fantastic day out - will be coming here more regularly for sure, my little boy had an absolute blast! Staff were all super nice and friendly. There was a little glitch with their website around the bank holiday opening times but they were very proactive in fixing any potential issues with our booking - while our booking was absolutely fine it was nice to see them actively reaching out to people to try and fix any issues. There are bags of activities and things to do - the playground suits so many ages and the area where you get to hold a fury friend is awesome :) Nice cafe with plenty on offer - Would absolutely recommend for a day out with the kids
B. O.
Loved every moment of it!!! Very Child friendly place. There were so many different animals to see, some that you could also feed. The animals were adorable and very sweet, there was so much to see and the staff are very welcoming and friendly. Especially Ellie one of the keepers who took a moment to sit with us, she was very kind and made the experience what it was. We learned so much about the animals and even had a little cuddle with some. Definitely recommend this place to anyone and everyone who loves animals and wants a great day out.
K. S.
Been with my 7year old daughter and my mum was a lovely place very clean food was nice just waited a while for it but excetable cause it was busy and very hot day but food was lovely staff was friendly pet holding was lovely we fell in love with the baby white rabbit will come back again
L. M.
He had a great day, its just got the right amount of play things for the young ones. The food is first class. My granddaughter can't wait to come back to the petting corner, first she had a brown baby rabbit then a white one, but what she love was the mouse, she loved it and feeding the goat.. Will definitely be going back again
G. G.
Great place to take the kids for a few hours of fun..👍 there is a playground, sheltered sandpit, ride-on toy trucks and tractors, a barn with farm animals to feed and stroke (with washing facilities after). There is also a super cafe where I had jacket potato with prawns and my wife had jacket potato with beans both well presented with side salad and coleslaw 😋 ..highly recommended for kids of all ages.!!
P. B.
Took our 2 grandchildren aged 5 and 8. ( boy and girl) Absolutely loved everything particularly the animal feeding and cuddle/ stroke a pet time. Fabulous ice creams, yum food at lunch time. Had to drag them away. We were there from 10am until 3.30!
P. D.
This farm has the perfect balance between animals and okay equipment for young children. Price point was perfect, I'd even say it was cheap for what was on offer. Opportunity for young children to hold rabbits and guinea pigs, bouncy castles and ceramic painting (for small extra fee) Perfect, will be back as often as I can!
J. S.
Lovely day out. Very reasonable family ticket. Great cuddling rabbits and guinea pigs, hedgehog and owls .
M. H.
Never been before, we were invited to a party. It was super fun and my daughter didn't want to leave. She loved holding the rabbits. A great place to go with kids. We will be back.
m. c.
Took our toddler today, a really good price for a few hours well spent. If the weather was a little warmer could easily have spent all day there.
L. B.
It was quite busy on arrival. But once through the entry point there was lots of choice. A large play area. Small animals and bookable slots to handle and pett them. Lots of picnic tables. A well stocked cafe. A zip wire, space and footballs for those wanting to play. Further from the entry complex there where larger animals, alpaca, sheep ponies all friendly and loved any food.
L. R.
A fantastic little place for the little ones to charge about at. Theres a petting farm section, educational elements as well as an undercover sandpit and sit on driving toys. Theres also a decent amount of swings and outside climbing equipment.
The favourite by far, was the inflatable assault course which kept them busy for ages.
Food was lovely. Staff really helpful!
Great day out. We booked our tickets in advance and spent a good 3.5 hours there. Plenty of tables outside as well for picnics should you bring your own snacks and things.
Well worth a visit
R. W.
We have visited Beetlebank farm a few times & chose this as the venue for my daughters 3rd birthday. We had such a wonderful time. The staff are friendly & welcoming, the food is great & there is so much to do. It’s a hidden gem. We absolutely love it here.
B.
Absolutely loved it ....First time we have been. Had my daughter visiting with grandson and looking for somewhere to go. So hands on ...loads to do and amazing friendly staff ...nothing to much trouble. We will be back many more times I feel ...x
R. F.
Great place to take kids and good food to boot.
We took our 4 year old and 1 year old here for breakfast and a play.
The food was good and then we went to feed the animals.
L. R.
Amazing day out for our granddaughters 3rd birthday.
She enjoyed the animals, the play equipment, the petting area and we all had a wonderful lunch....... and cakes!!! She didn't want to leave!!!
The staff couldn't do enough for you and were all pleasant and helpful.
This was our second time in two weeks..... We decided to buy an annual family pass.
We'll definitely look into having here next birthday at Beetle Bank Farm... no shopping, preparation, clearing away with parties at home, all done for you, with entrance and food at a very good price and all the children will love the activities.
Thank you, it was an amazing day😊👏
r.
Great for lunch and break on a journey. Lots to do for our 4 and 1 year old. Food very reasonable in the cafe with helpful and friendly staff.
H. a.
Fab open space with lots of farm animals, owls and pets to see and even hold some of them for the littles. Staff were great, plenty to do with the play park and the bouncy castles and a nice cafe. Plenty of seating and wash areas
B. L.
So great that you can feed the animals. My son loves it. Bouncy castles are brilliant extra. The staff are really friendly too.
B. C.
I enjoyed it more than the children! Cheap cheerful and the cafe has a wonderful selection of Tea, coffee, cake and ice cream! The zip line was so much fun! Would definitely visit again :) Great place for children! Free parking also
C. L.
Visited today had a really good time my 2 young girls really enjoyed it. Feeding, holding the animals was a great experience, they loved it. The play area is excellent and the grounds are lovely big open field to walk around, possible future picnic spot. Brand new clean toilets spacious car park and over flow, didn't try the food but cafe looked clean and customers looked well catered for. Overall great child friendly place, welcoming friendly staff and fab space for kids to be kids.
P. O.

g. m.

S. M.
Really enjoyable way to spend a morning. There's plenty of animals inside and out - cows, sheep, goats, alpacas, chickens, ducks, rabbits, and more. The playground is small, but my daughter enjoyed it. The café was a nice way to end out visit and, although we didn't have any hot food, it looked really nice. Good cakes!
M. D.
Amazing farm ,great for childreen of any age and with special needs,staff always happy to help,and the cafe is great with homemade tasty treats,please do visit,highly recommended...
B. C.

M. T. O.
Decent children's farm for the family. A good day out for the family. We bought a food pellets bag for our son to feed the animals. The cafe tea room was exceptional with decent and affordable food.
D. C.
Lots for the kids to do, animals really friendly and food well priced. The staff were really friendly and great with the kids, making sure they held all the animals they wanted, such as rabbits, chickens and a tortoise. I was pleasantly surprised by how much there was and what was included, for what little you pay on the door. We will definitely be going again (photos from second trip) and will be returning in the near future.
D.
A lovely cosy farm for everyone to enjoy.
If you are a lover of barnyard animals with a few little twist then this is excellent. From being able to feed, pet and get real cosy to the animals there.
Highlight definitely has to be tickling the piggies tummy and snuggling up with the lambs
J. S.
Great day out, the weather was perfect to sit on benches set apart on the grass overlooking the play area. Animals in huts and aviaries situated in viewing distance of the park so kids could be monitored. Staff very friendly and went above and beyond despite it being busy and, due to a rainy forecast being understaffed as it turned out lovely. Great experience.
K. R.
I don't want to appear biased, as I know a member of the family that runs this attraction. However, as a fledgling, growing business it's been very interesting to see how much the farm has grown over the last 18 months or so. We visited for the first time this week and have been left very impressed.
R. S.
What a fabulous day ! Never a dull moment there is plenty to occupy children of all ages. It was lovely to see all the animals. The children particularly enjoyed feeding the goats and ponies, but the highlight for them was cuddling the rabbits. The cafe wasn't bad either. Can't wait to buy an annual family pass. Great gift idea too.
M. J.
Such a great customer focused and child friendly ran petting farm/play park. Great facilities and yummy cafe. Highly recommend.
D. C.
Everything was pretty much open. We managed to arrive in time for the lamb feeding, which my daughters enjoyed. We fed the sheep and the goats, again my daughters enjoyed this. They also enjoyed playing on the play equipment. Not sure about deep frying fish fingers though...
H. B.
Cutest animals to hold and feed. The staff there are incredibly friendly. It’s a really great day out for couples and friends and not just for parents with their kids.
J. S.
Not too many attractions for that price.
It's nice place in summer if you're planning to make a picnic.
Ps
Very friendly staff!!! :)
M. H.
Lovely place with lots of open space and fresh air. Food prices are a bit expensive for what you get. For the entrance fee price, you should be able to bring your own food.
B. A.
My son and Grandsons loved it , holding,feeding animals and out door park facilities ,great refreshments and food available,Prices are reasonable too. Great family day out :)
K. J.
Fab place and spacious enough for our little girl to enjoy. Spent much longer there than I thought too. Smashing trip out
J. M.
Visited on a wet quiet day, outdoor play area was cordoned off due to waterlogged area, fully understood. Visited animals in the barn, kids loved feeding the goats and seeing the baby Llama. Staff friendly and with it being quiet, kids had extra time holding and petting rabbits, guinea pigs and chicken. Will visit again when warm and dry to enjoy the outdoor area and cafe.
R. E.
We had a fabulous time, staff friendly, food yummy, my granddaughter did not want to leave!!
D. F.
Popped in to Beetle Bank this morning. Although the weather is not being kind Santa is visiting and Blitzen is in the barn having a rest. The piglets, goats and llamas are keeping him company.
P. J.
Brilliant Place my 3 year old grandaughter absolutely loved in here.
The staff were so friendly too.
A good variety of animals Goats, Sheep, Guinea Pigs, Rabbits, Pigs, alpacas and poultry.
Children can hold a rabbit or guinea pig too.
There are various pedal toys, tractors diggers etc.
Great sand pit with lots of sand toys.
A shed with dolls, play cooker etc.
Very good play area suitable for all ages including a zip wire.
Theres a lovely walk around the field to see the animals.
The was two bouncy castles which all ages can enjoy.
Will definitely be visiting again.
S. B.
Stopped off here again on our way to the coast with my three year old daughter. Really lovely staff, great value, animals to see and stroke, plus good quality children's play areas, sandpit, ride on toys and a bouncy castle and obstacle course. Love that you can eat your own food or buy from their reasonably priced cafe. Plenty of places to wash hands. Watch out for wasps when eating!
R. F.
This is a fantastic place for kids and adults alike. A wide variety of "cuddlies" to stroke and feed as well as some larger animals to entice over for a stroke.
The staff are fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable and go out of their way to assist you and teach about the various animals.
The cafe is well priced so even a family of 4 can eat out without breaking the bank. The food choice is vast with a fine selection of fresh food and some deeply delicious cakes. Oh and be sure to grab yourself a coffee, they're fantastic.
Before you leave, make sure you give Gary and George, the 2 best goats in the barn, a snack or two 😁

We have visited this farm twice in 3 weeks, it is now our favourite place. Our daughter loves the animals, play area and the big space. It has lots of seating for families which is good and the ticket price is reasonable and affordable. The staff are lovely and very welcoming. It is very clean and well looked after. We always have a great time and can't wait for our third visit already !! :)

K. B.

OK I suppose I thought would be more there for the price... At 6 pound each even for 2yr olds.. We were only there less than a hour..
P. L.
Great time - baby goats, lambs, chicks. New play equipment suitable for older children. Stickman trail for Julia Donaldson fans.
A. R.

Loads of space to run and play lots of different play equipment, sand pit bouncy castle and slide swings large Wendy house lots of ride on toys Inc tractors plus other things. Petting animals in pens plus can hold smaller ones at times stated. My Grandson loved it and we had a decent lunch there too. Not over priced as some places are. Well worth a visit.
M. J.
Lovely place to spend family quality time. Recommend having a snack or a light lunch from their own café, I had a charming pea-mint soup and the ingredients were locally grown 🥰
S. A.
Love this place. So much to do as a family there's a great Park area. An undercover area with trikes etc there for kids to play on. There's a petting area to cuddle certain animals and you can also feed the animals within the pens and out in the fields at only 50p a bag of food. I have taken people with disabilities and they are amazing and accommodate their needs. The staff are so friendly and the Cafe is reasonably priced. X
S.
Awesome day out with the little one! Lots of animals to see and feed, loads of tables for eating, big play areas for the kids of all ages 👌🏻 5* vegan magnums and vegan options for teas and coffees for dairy free people and jacket potatoes if you're coeliac like me
J. R.
Just got back from my Grandaughters Birthday party at Beetlebank Farm.
What an amazing day, the children played on the outdoor equipment, then had a petting session with the smaller animals, baby rabbits, guinea pigs and ducklings.
All followed by a Birthday meal, I say meal, because I was expecting sandwiches and maybe a bit of pork pie, instead all the children were seated on a long table and then served with chicken strips, chips, pizza and then sandwiches, followed by jelly and ice cream with large jugs of juice.
All the children (and at least one of the adults 😉😁) enjoyed the feast.
I would highly recommend Farmer Angela and her team to anyone interested in holding a Birthday party here.
Fantastic value for money and a great selection of food.
A really lovely day was had by all.
PS, thank you for my portion of jelly and ice cream 😉
G. T.
Took my 5 year old and 9 year old to see Santa at beetle bank farm they loved it being able to visit aanta and look at the animals fabulous afternoon out
A. L.
Fantastic place. Been twice this summer and the animal petting and feeding is very personalised.
H. S.
We all loved it and had a great day out
J. S.
It was lovely, my 3 n 1 year old granddaughters loved it, The park and the animals were great. They loved the piglets, Guinea pigs, rabbits and baby goats. The staff were very friendly xx
E. W.
Lovely place, very friendly staff, you get to hold the small animals in the barn and feed the bigger ones. Really nice outdoor park and bouncy obstacle course. The cafe is lovely and the brownies are yummy (freshly baked on site).
Would highly recommend for young family's.
N. C.
The only place my daughter mentioned during 3 months of lockdown 'i like going to the park Mummy but be nice if could go Beetle Bank Mummy' she loves feeding the animals. So of course we had to meet my parents there for her Fourth birthday this week. It was the 1 yr olds first look at most animals too, she particularly liked the baby chicks and guinea pigs. It wasn't busy so we didn't feel worried about Covid and the staff are always lovely. Booking online was super easy too x
C. W.
We took our 5 grandchildren who's ages range from 18 months to 6 years and had a lovely time. We spent about 3 hours and took a picnic although there were refreshments there to buy. The children loved feeding the animals and holding the rabbits and guinia pigs. They also loved the play areas and ride along toys. An excellent place for smaller children. I would think most suitable from 2 to 7 years olds
M. W.
Great fun for all the family. Nice cafe too.
N.
A lovely day out for your family.
The petting area is great and the animals are treated really well.
Lots of play areas and activities for the kids (our little toddler got obsessed with the sandpit so didn't really engage with the animals... next time).
Would suggest a loyalty card or season pass would be a good idea.
Only downside was that the food pricing was a bit premium.
L. P.
VERY friendly staff. My little girls were amazed seeing newly born Swift's & Housemartin's. Right place at the right time I guess.
Other than that, felt very safe. Got a good brief on the Covid procedures in place upon arrival.
Loads of space around the play area so the little ones can burn some energy. There's also a Stick Man trail that we weren't aware of prior but was a welcome surprise to the girls as they love the Stick Man.
Good variety of birds. Chickens and the Peacock occasionally take wing and decide to have a stroll around (probably waiting for dropped ice cream)
Option to feed the goats, sheep, alpacas, boar. Unfortunately the cows were closed off. Feed is 50p a bag so can't go wrong.
TL;DR Really good to burn a few hours, friendly staff, spacious play area and good variety of animals. Would go again 👍🏻
C. M.
Fantastic for toddlers. Mainly under cover but outside playground is glorious on a sunny day too. Children can get really close to the animals with thoughtful child height windows and bales to stand on to peer into the pens.
R. G.
14 of our family (including 4 young children) met for a family celebration yesterday and had a great time. The receptionist, lady in charge of the cafe, the playground assistants and the animal shed assistants were all very helpful, patient, efficient, polite and cheerful. Also the food was delicious. An excellent day. Thank you. David Grice
C. V. H.
Awesome day at this cute little farm! We held guinea pigs, rabits, baby goats, and more! Very interactive and a beautiful place to visit. Just a short drive outside the city. There's plenty of picnic tables outside if you want to pack a lunch or they have a little cafe on site.
J. H.
Fabulous day out with my 2 year old niece. Staff were so friendly from start to finish - the staff in the petting corner were very helpful. A lovely place for an afternoon visit!
C. H.
Fabulous place to take the littlies! Staff always friendly and helpful 🙂
j. l.
Such a great place for kids, from petting baby animals to playing with pedal toys, even a well kitted out wendy house with prams ,dolls etc. climbing frames swings, bouncy castle. No wonder kids didn't want to leave and parents able to sit have a drink and something to eating while watching kids have fun Really well laid out.. Staff so friendly would definitely go again
O. Y. B. A. H. D.
Fantastic day with our two year old she still talks about the sheep baaaing at her and making her jump and the duck that pood on daddy, highly recommend
P. T.
Great little farm, loads of animals to feed and bookable slots to pet small animals. They have a large play area with equipment and a nice cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. We will definitely be back.
L. B.
A great place to spend an afternoon, especially with toddler and pre schoolers. Loads of animals to feed and a big wide grassy space for the kids to run about in.
p. t.
Cracking little farm with play area and. Coffee shop for the parents. The farm is flat with good line of site for keeping an eye on the kids.
There are a number of different animals from goats and pony's to feed and rabbits and chicken to pet.
The staff are really friendly and there is a really nice atmosphere at the farm.
J. P.
Lovely place to feed and hold animals. Good wooden structure with undercover play area with tractors, bikes and other outdoor toys. Excellent indoor area with games, jigsaws and colouring didn't go into the cafe. The muddy play area spoilt the visit.
C. S.
We visited there for the first time with our 17 month old granddaughter and thoroughly enjoyed our day. Lovely friendly staff and plenty for the little ones to do and see. We didn't eat but the coffee was lovely and must say the food looked great. Yes we will visit again. Thankyou..
C. B.
Nice venue, very relaxed , loads of animals to feed
C. W.
I genuinely love this place. A lot of time, effort and hardwork has gone into making it a welcoming safe place for children young and old to experience farm animals and outside space. The staff are friendly and so helpful and the facilities are clean and of a very good standard.
G.
Plenty to do. Guinea pigs and rabbits to hold, goats, ponies to feed. Great outdoor area with playground, football pitch and picnic areas. Cafe.
A. B.
Took my granddaughter for her birthday party. All the children had a super time. The staff were very helpful. Would recommend it .
L. S.
Great place for children. Lots of animals to see and great play park. Also a lovely café. You can also book in the hold the small animals. Good covid precautions in place.
d.
excellent day out.farm clean animals well kept.added bonus of petting area where you can handle rabbits guinea pig and pigmy hedgehogs.
The cafe on site offers hot and cold items and lovely cakes.
large play area on field adjoining cafe and barn where there is a large sandpit two climbing frames with slides and fireman's pole one for smaller children and a large bouncing assault course but this isn't really suitable for smaller children although parents can accompany children for the more adventurous little ones.
ride on toys doll prams and pushchairs are provided undercover should it rain .There are plenty of picnic tables dotted around so you can take your own picnic if desired.
entrance fee is £6 or £22 for a family of four and 50p to purchase a bag of food to feed the animals.
I would recommend a trip to this farm it's reasonably priced and there are plenty or washing areas to use make sure your hands are hygienic after touching the animals
C. F.
Great place. Safe for children! Has petting area that has to be booked. Such a choice of animals to pet. Safe play area. Very good value! Will certainly go again and again.
S. W.
Lovely place, delicious food. Plenty things to do for little ones. Can stroke animals. Feeding them too. Definitely recommend it
L. C.
Very welcoming, clean and plenty of room and activities for the children. The cafe was very good value and we enjoyed seeing all the baby animals.
L. L.
It's quite a small place but that did mean we could sit at one of the benches at the cafe and watch the children where ever they were playing. There's a petting corner that the children loved because they could hold a rabbit, Guinea pig, tortoise or baby chick.
There was an inflatable obstacle course which they spent most of the time on.
R. N.
Wonderful place. Attended a kids party here and it was fantastic. Great outdoor area with climbing equipment, swings, slides etc. Animal barn and petting was a big hit. Will definitely be going back again.
T. J.
Totally set up for the kids, our 4 year old grandchildren loved it. We sat back and relaxed while they played and then did their slot petting the small animals.
S. C.
Friendly family run open farm. Activities include: feeding animals, "touch and tell" ride on vehicles, climbing frames for toddlers and older children, sandpit and bouncy castles. Decent cafe. Mostly outdoor, but some animals, vehicles and sandpit are covered.
H. D.
A fun day out with our toddler. There is a petting area/barn with lots of cute little animals to pet and toys for children. Additionally, there is a playground which has baby swings. As long as you don’t mind a short walk, you can take a journey to see some of the larger animals such as a goat and pigs. For those who love bouncy castles, two are available for use. I would have preferred if someone was monitoring them or if they could have been separated by age. As the older children were quite rough with my little one. Finally, it’s quite difficult to use a pushchair on site, if your child is quite young or tired taking them to see the larger animals can be a bit difficult.
A. P.
Well organised place with loads of space for the kids to play with climbing frames and football field, animals to pet and a really nice cafe with food.
J. B.
Lots of things for the kids to do and animals to see and pet.
R. O. F.
Very relaxed atmosphere. Children enjoy interacting with animals
Cafe reasonable prices varied menu indoor and outdoor seating.
L. N.
Lovely staff, very friendly and helpful. We couldn't use the outdoor play area due to the bad weather so we were given half price entrance but still lots to do and a covered play area to use. Will definitely be going back.

I visited this morning with a friend we both had our granddaughters, my grandaighters 2and a half and she absolutely loved it all of it,she loved feeding the animals with food we purchased when we arrived,she loved the letting zoo and all the toys,and I think what was really good is all the open space she could run around really safely, the play area was closed due to all the rain and when we arrived I thought this would be a problem but absolutely not,there's so much of interest for the little ones and such a lot to occupy them and great that they get to touch and enjoy the animals close up ,my only tiny criticism is that all the stones are really difficult when you have a pushchair which my friend did as her granddaughters only one, it's not really a criticism just a thought . We will definately visit again soon.brilliant!!
P. U.
Really well kept, good value compared to other park near here which wanted twice the money and we had a great few hours here. Lots of baby animals and petting for the kids to do.
S. M.
Fantastic place to take your little one/s. Animals seem well looked after and lots to see. You are able to book petting times, buy feed for the animals as you walk round and also friendly staff. My only gripe is that food can sometimes take some time to be delivered even if just a sandwich however the quality never dissapoints so worth the wait
M. S.
Excellent for kids, animal feeding and holding, lovely play area, bouncy castle and cafe
B. W.
We love going here, such a lovely day out

Had a lovely day. Just one suggestion if you don't mind me saying, would it possible to give the option of serving children's meals on a plastic plates I appreciate some people may not want this but as a grandparent I prefer to play safe.
