We took our 13mth old daughter for her first ever farm trip and so glad we brought her to Hesketh Farm, so interactive for her and so much to see and do. It was Halloween when we went and they had pumpkin carving too which she enjoyed helping with.
Staff were lovely and letting people know when things were about to take place such as feeding the animals etc rather than having to keep an eye on the time for things!
Amazing afternoon, made some fantastic memories thank you ☺️ xx
Beautiful Scenic farm next to Bolton Abbey, where you can feed the animals. Kids really enjoyed it and my Highlight was the tractor ride through the amazingly scenic fields, up close with the sheep and cows.
We've visited Hesketh Farm near Bolton Abbey several times over the years. It is a brilliant location for your young children.
On site parking is free, there's plenty of spaces and it's buggy and wheel chair friendly.
Entry charge. June 2023 I was charged £15.00 for 1 Adult and one over 5 year old.
There's plenty to do for the kids to be entertained and lots of seating inside and out for the grown ups to sit at while the kids play.
Some activities are just to name a few:
See the animals
Pet/feed the ginea pigs from your lap
Feed the calves milk
Pedal go carts
Baby tractors
Climb the huge tractos
Climbing frames
Swings
Sand pit
And a must do is the tractor ride.
Take a picnic or order from the cafe inside. Enjoy the weather and views while they play. A perfect place to take the kids
We visited today and had the most amazing day! The animals all looked very clean and well looked after. (It was nice to learn that some of them were rescues too!). The huge tortoises were munching on big fresh lettuces. It is so interactive with goat & pony feeding, handling Guinea pigs & chicks, feeding calves, eggs collecting etc, it’s so lovely to be able to get involved and get to touch & feed the animals & no overcrowding either. The play areas are excellent, it’s free parking & very reasonable entry fee. Thank you for a great experience, we can’t wait to visit again!
So much to do in a beautiful location. Animal feeding every half hour for the children. Guinea pigs to hold and stroke. Tractors, go karts, climbing frames music its got everything. Very impressed with the place. Will definitely be going back. A little pricey but a quality location and you can even take your own picnic to make a day of it.
Took my 4 grandchildren aged between 4 and 10. They all had a fantastic day. Something for everyone. Lots of animals to look at, and loads of other things to do as well. All my gang lived the go karts. Nearly had to drag them off!. Would definitely recommend a family visit here. The cafe was well run and served delicious food.
Hope to return soon. Thank you for a lovely day
Great little farm for the kids, i like how you could interact with animals and get to be so close. Nice friendly staff around the place especially at the cafe. Will definitely be visiting again as we missed the tractor ride.
Love it here. Bring the children regularly. Good value and fun with the animals as well as outside on the cars, playground or picnicking.
2023 update. This place gives from strength to strength. The animals are wonderful to interact with. And the play area has grown to give the children so much choice to play and burn some energy. Todays favourites were the goats and guinea pigs.
