This Little Piggy

23 Oct 2010
Visited with: Infant
We spent a delightful day at Pennywell Farm and enjoyed everything that it had to offer, which turned out to be many things! We loved the fact that visitors were encouraged to enter the pens and handle/meet the animals, unlike many similar farm parks that we have been too where you are stuck watching the animals from behind bars. Personal highlights for us were 'Piggy Fun' where we got to handle pigglets-and they really did squeal! and the falconry display which was very informative and also hands on. Not only were there a multitude of farm animals to meet, stroke and feed, but there were also excellent attractions including large trampolines, 'The Red Rocket', Tractor and Trailor rides and other rides for our little one to enjoy. The cafe was also excellent and served an excellent cup of tea which is what you need after all the fun we had in the October sunshine. The park is on a smaller scale than some other farm parks we have been too but in this case size definately doesn't matter as we had an excellent time!

A lovely working farm, get up close with the animals and staff put on demonstrations throughout the day. Play parks and model playhouses. Trampolines, sandpits, bouncy castle, ride on tractor. and much more. The Red Rocket is great fun and we laughed all the way around! Plenty of places to picnic, inside and out. Limited food served.
