Wellybobs Farm

My wife and I took our brother, sister and niece as they were over from Hull visiting. We only live ten minutes away but were shocked to find that we had paid nearly £30 for entry, expecting it to be a couple of pounds each to see about 5 animals (that we paid extra to feed) and she held a rabbit. The entrance road and overall appearance of the place is scruffy and unprofessional and the café /​play area not much better. We left after 20 – 30 minutes and drove to a pub for lunch instead.
I do hope that they have improved things as i like to see local businesses thriving and good on them for giving it a go but a lot of work needed to get their business model up to standard as it were. Good luck…(visited 2012)

Never before have i felt so conned by a company ever.
I was made aware of this petting farm from my mum who had seen a deal on Groupon. I looked at the website and was met by a very professional website showing a world full of stuff to do… how wrong was i ?
We didn’t travel far, Oldham to Blackburn but still with todays petrol prices, wasted journeys like this end up very costly.
We arrived on a cold tuesday half term afternoon and was met by a biggish farm with a couple of building.
Our 1^st problem was a lack of signage to find out where to pay to gain entrance. We spent a few mins walking through the farm and could have easily not bothered paying at all but like good honest citizen tried to find out to pay our way.
We entered the Café and i asked sheeply «is this where i pay to get in» ?
Yes was the answer and so after paying for x2 adults and a 3 year old i was £14.50 lighter.
Now if you look a the website
it a 1^st glance looks like there are loads of areas to visit.
WRONG
The animals are in one building & there are about 5 animals to pet. At the end of the building there a few dirty plastic seats for the young ones to sit down and hold a rabbit.
Thats about it. The Café was full of sand as there is sandpit located in there next to the so called «reptile house»
We stayed for 20 mins and then left.
Never been so disappointed.
Will never again go here !
