Play Time

There are several indoor play areas - the one adjacent to the party room was custom-built by House of Play, to suit younger children. It has a ball pool, chute, climbing frame and "squeezy tubes" - great fun!! There is seating for adults who can supervise their charges in comfort.

The barn near the goat pens has no fewer than eight trampolines, for different age groups - under 3 years, under 10 years and under 90 years! Each has netting on the sides so that children cannot fall off. It is essential that every child using the trampolines is supervised by an accompanying adult, to avoid accidents.

For the smallest children, we have a large sand pit, which is almost like being at the beach! Next door to that is the BRIO room where little ones can try out the full range of BRIO toys, while mums and dads can have a seat.

Our newest play area is a barn full of straw bales on which children can clamber, with a swing and chute. This is located in what used to be the collecting yard near the milking parlour.

In the outdoor play area there are swings, a see saw, climbing wall and a tunnel, all with bark chippings to allow for soft landings, and plenty of space for ball games and running around. This area sometimes has to be closed if we have had heavy rain, as it gets very boggy and slippery.

Also outside are pedal tractors for very young tots, go karts for older children and motorised coin-operated vehicles on a specially designed track.
