Took my grandson here for the very 1st time. I'd taken his aunty & uncle there when they were kiddies. Freddie loved seeing all the animals & playing in the park. Will 100% take him back xx
The place was tidy, clean, and perfect for young kids. The prices are £11 for adults, £10 for above 5s, and under 5s are free, booking online isn't required. We went on a bank holiday Friday and was pleasantly surprised that we weren't over ran by families. It might seem a little on the steeper side but I personally think it was worth it seeing the animals and allowing the kids to run to each open pen with the feed. The larger animals like Cows and Goats are very people friendly. Perfect for prams too. Parking is free.
This is a fantastic place for a good laugh with some animals. The goats are gorgeous and full of joy. There's one llama that is full of sass. The rest are nice, but one of them was well up for a cuddle and mess about. I've added a photo of the llama as this was a highlight for me. The animals inside today were all up for a treat and a selfie. The indoor and outdoor play parks are really good and the cafe was surprisingly good. Full English for £9.50. We didn't e, so I o can't comment on quality, but prices were good.
Nice one day or afternoon outing for family. Ample car park space available. Short distance drive towards the location is not tarred and bumpy. Good experience for kids and has got a cafeteria and indoor play area for kids. 50p additional charge for animal feeds. Good variety of animals and nice ambience close to the nature. Take your own gloves if you prefer to feed animals and don't want them licking your hands. Friendly staff. They organise seperate sessions with each animal with a staff member. Last such session at 3pm. Closes at 5pm. Open on sundays and school holidays. Would have been better if there was a staff at each farm/ shed so could have seen animals closer without fear of them jumping out of the fence for food especially for kids. Patchy mobile network in the area.
We love Melsop farm. I know it used to be better a couple of years back, but you can’t blame them for the councils decisions. Kids love the goats especially when there’s baby ones. We like to slowly walk around the fields feeding the animals, and then into the soft play and cafe. (Kids love about 2 hours in there!) and then back out to see the animals again. Easy for us to spend around 5/6 hours here!
Amazing place for children, the animals are really good taken care of, you can purchase pets. There is a coffee shop where you can have breakfast, also play area for kids. Definitely a great place to spend the day if you enjoy being in nature.
Great day out with my nephew and niece. Good café though the wait was quite long. White peacocks are stunning. Lots of animals to look at, good playground too
It was perfect place to introduce to your little one animals. There is a outdoor play, indoor play, baby changing room. All the animals were really gentle. My 1.5 year old loved it and we were able to feed the calfs.
Great little experience, cost two of us £19 for entry and two bags of feed. Easy walk around and a good amount to see. Easy to get up close to most of the animals.
Amazing place, not expensive about £9 per adult, a lot of farm animals which you can feed and touch. Food for animals cost £1 per bag. Have playground and inside soft play for kids, can bring own food or can buy inside in the cafe.
