Welcome to Elm Nursery children’s farm. We have many animals including alpacas, goats, Shetland ponies, pigs, ducks, chickens, rabbits, guinea pigs and more! Food to feed the guinea pigs and rabbits is available to buy for £1 a bag (whilst daily stocks last). We ask that you don’t feed our animals food that you have bought from home.
Price update, November 2024:
As of today, Monday 4th November 2024, the farm admission cost will be £6 per person. This is an increase of £1 and under 2s remain free of charge. We have held off increasing the price for admission for as long as possible, but unfortunately with the current financial climate, we are not able to hold off any longer. Over the past two years, we have experienced a huge increase in the cost of animal food, medicine and ongoing veterinary care. The majority of our animals also have complex health needs. We absolutely love what we do and keeping our farm open and our animals here for you all to see is so important. We also thank you every single one of you who has visited us over the years, either as a regular weekly visitor, or at special events, or both! Your continued support means the world to us all. Thank you for your understanding, all the team at Elm.
About your visit:
Our farm is an ideal venue for a morning or afternoon outing with young/pre-school children. Spend some time outside getting plenty of fresh air and enjoy seeing the animals without the pressure of a ‘big day out’. There is a small play area with a sandpit (suitable for under 5s), covered seating area and outdoor benches. Your own food can be consumed but please use the tables and bins provided. Rubbish can be dangerous to our animals, so please don’t leave any behind. Elm Farm Cafe has a wonderful selection of cakes, homemade treats plus lunches and delicious coffee. Please do support them if you can.
After visiting a farm it is always important to wash your hands! Please make sure you do at our hand washing station. Dogs are not permitted on the farm, in the shop or car park due to free roaming animals. If you would like to visit us with an assistance dog, please contact us in advance of your visit to discuss.
