Whitehouse Farm Centre

Fun for a family day out though not as close to a working farm as I’d like. My children love it here at this farm centre. As you pay to enter you can buy bags of nuts to feed the animals, I didn’t the firsttime we came here and that was a mistake. Children love feeding the animals and it’s a good confidence booster for children who are nervous and a way to encourage them to overcome their fears.
The centre has a big café area with hot and cold food and drinks available. There’s a soft play area, tractor rides, shop, big toboggan slide — lots of things to entertain active children. There is plenty of free car parking available. I’ve been here before when the staff supervise small animal handling sessions, very educational and fun.

Enjoy a family fun filled day out. Loads of things for the children to do and play with. Get some food and go feed the animals. Places to have a picnic and if you feel a bit peckish there is also a café. For the braver ones there is grass sledging and you can lay back and take it easy ona tractor ride.

We have had a great time here in the past, loads of different animals though if the big horses are out mind the little ones fingers as one has a habit of nibbling, my advice was when you pay for your tickets get more food than you think you will need to fee the animals as there a lot more than there seems and they seem to be constinlty hungry
I go around the outside first to see the larger animals and then inside to feed the goats, they have sessions where the kids can hold the rabbits and if you go at the right time of year then you can feed the lambs,
There is a fab play centre for the kids outside and a soft play area in the café, the tractor rides and fun and you should try and go on one. The food is good and there is plenty to choose from
In the shop next to the café you buy your tickets for the toboggan slide the kids can go down by themselves or sit on your knee
The giant rubber tryes are a little heavy to take up the stairs so take care
Well worth a day out

This visitors farm is a brilliant place to take children or host a child party. There is hands on expereince with farmyard animals and the chance to get up close and personal with them! The farm has experienced, mature-​minded staff who supervise under these conditions.
There is excellent facilities to have children’s celebrations with a range of party options available at a reasonable price.
My family has enjoyed visiting the farm and love talking to the staff about the animals here. It is great to see animals kept in good conditions and treat so well.
