Here at Swithens Farm
Here as Swtihens farm we have a range of traditional farm animals (not so traditional) for you to see and interact with, your little ones, and probably you also, will be happy as the pigs in muck as you get involved with feeding and learning about the care and husbandry on a real working farm.
Visit the cows in the cow shed, then next door are the pigs and onto the walk over to visit either the highlands or some of the bulls (depending on the time of year).
We have sheep, goats, donkeys, llamas, alpacas & emus, in our paddock area to visit and chickens, turkeys and our young chicks to visit.
In the small animal barn visit the meerkats, rabbits and guinea pigs, and during the spring and summer months, you can bottle-feed the lambs and calves.
Don’t forget to keep an eye out for our cheeky long-time friend Bilbo. He is likely to race you up the paddocks! A truly up close and hands-on experience. A fun day for all.
buy a tub of carrots for £1 and feed the animals as you go round. Tubs are recycled daily, helping the environment.
Farm Admission Price is from £9 per person, children aged 1 and under go free.
Please book online here or use the tickets tab at the top of the page.
Under 1s still need a ticket booking via the under 1 free ticket.

FILMING & SOCIAL MEDIA
Regarding our promotional videos shared on social media and other platforms, please be advised that these videos are professionally produced on-site to showcase what we offer our guests and to be informative to potential visitors about what to expect on the Farm.
We endeavour to display clear signage at the front entrance and tills stating that “we may be filming today,” ensuring that guests enter the farm aware of the potential of filming on the site either via our staff or professionals. While 99% of people are happy to participate in the filming, given the nature of our filming, it is impractical to ask every single visitor, especially those in the background of main shots. However, we are more than willing to edit out anyone who wishes not to appear in our videos.
Simply contact us or speak with the cameraman on the day. Please note that we do not film every day, only on selected opening days.
We hope you enjoy your time with us at Swithens Farm.
Sincerely, team Swithens.
