After much consideration we have made the very difficult decision that the Farm will not be reopening over the next few weeks. We are working hard on plans to be able to adhere to the guidelines and to put social distancing measures in place. We’re sure you appreciate this will take a bit of time. We can assure you plans are well under way and our intention is to re open when it’s safer to do so, and when we can keep everyone from visitors to volunteers safe 😄

Thank you all so very much for your support.

After careful consideration of the Government’s advice, we have had to make the tough decision this morning to close the Farm to the public. Although we do not have large crowds in at any given time, and no-one associated with the farm is showing any symptoms, we feel that it’s the best decision for the time being.

We have to ensure everyone’s safety. The less risks we take the better, as we won’t be any use to the animals if we end up ill. Please be assured that we will still be in taking care of the animals.

This decision has not been taken lightly, as we had hoped to remain open for as long as possible. We will endeavour to keep everyone updated on the animals adventures via Facebook and are still happy to chat on the phone and offer any help we can.

Our opening hours for the foreseeable future are 11am-3pm, 7 days. We will be remaining open until we absolutely have to close. Unfortunately, during this time we will not be offering any handling of the animals or providing anyone to walk around with visitors. However, we are still open for people to come to the Farm and have a wander around themselves. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. Please continue to visit us. We need your support.

Due to the severe weather warning for Storm Dennis⛈️🌪️☔, the Farm will be closed for today (15/2/2020) and all the animals will enjoy a day in bed 😄

It has been many years since we last increased our small animal boarding fees. Unfortunately, we could not continue to absorb the rising costs for feed and bedding any longer and have had to apply an increase from 1/1/2020. Our fees still represent excellent value for money and we hope you will continue to board all your wee furries with us in the future. A full list of the new fees is available here.

PLEASE NOTE OUR OPENING TIMES OVER THE FESTIVE SEASON:

Our opening hours have now changed from 21st October 2019 to 10.30am to 3.30pm, 7 days, for the winter.

We are open as normal this weekend and our normal opening hours will recommence next week (Mon-Fri 10am-3.30pm; Sat & Sun 10am-4.30pm). Please note that the play area is currently closed until the work to it is completed, hopefully reopening by the middle of next week. Other areas may be temporarily affected. Once all the work is finished, we’re sure you’ll agree with us that it will be worth the wait 😁👌
