Feeding The Animals
Animal feed is on sale from the feed dispensers on the yard to feed the Cows, Goats, Sheep and Alpaca.
The dispensers can be found round the corner from our rabbits and guinea pigs.
They are filled at 10:00am and 2:05pm.
You will need 50p coins to purchase feed!

Pony Rides
£2 per child
Term Time Schedule – Wednesdays @12 , Saturdays and Sundays @12pm & 3pm
School Holidays – as above but also every week day except Monday at 12pm
Pony rides are for children aged 7 years and under, weighing less than 6 stone who are able to sit unaided and can fit into a riding hat.
They do not need to be booked in advance and are payable as you get on the pony or by cash or card. We recommend you arrive for your pony ride in plenty of time to avoid a long wait or disappointment.
Due to hat fitting constraints, we are unable to offer pony rides to children with a head circumference of 48cm or less.
