About this activity

Wigfield Farm is a hidden gem that promises a fun-filled day out for the whole family. With over 200 animals to see and plenty of activities to get involved in, it's no wonder that the farm is a firm favorite with locals and visitors alike.

Upon arrival, visitors are greeted with the sound of bleating lambs, oinking pigs, and clucking chickens. The farmyard area is bustling with activity, and children are immediately drawn to the pens where they can stroke and feed the animals. The friendly staff are on hand to answer any questions, and visitors can learn about the different breeds and their individual personalities.

One of the highlights of Wigfield Farm is the opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the larger animals, such as the donkeys and horses. There are even pony rides available for younger children, which is always a popular activity. The farm is also home to a variety of birds, including owls, parrots, and peacocks, which adds an exotic touch to the surroundings.

For those who prefer their animals with a bit more bite, the reptile house is not to be missed. Visitors can come face to face with snakes, lizards, and even a crocodile. The knowledgeable staff are on hand to dispel any myths about these often-misunderstood creatures and to answer any questions visitors may have.

One of the great things about Wigfield Farm is the variety of activities on offer. From tractor rides to adventure playgrounds, there's something for everyone. The farm has even recently added a giant bouncy pillow, which is always a hit with younger visitors.
