Visit websiteI recently stayed at Church Farm for two nights in my campervan. The spacious camping field and relaxed approach to the site made such a welcome change to the increasingly regimented nature of other campsites. Yes, the facilities are a little basic - some people might not like the compost loos - but it's a fairly inexpensive site and I found the farm's ecological ethos a breath of fresh air (even in the compost loos!) The staff were all very friendly and I thoroughly enjoyed my cooked breakfast. Excellent coffee too.
We had a wonderful afternoon at Church farm today. We were spoilt by the weather too. The highlight was the tiny new born piglets. It was lovely to be out in the fresh air seeing all the animals. We had a yummy lunch in the cafe, and brought some food in the shop to take home. A wonderful place to visit and great to see the work being done to support the community.
My wife and I visited Church Farm in Ardeley for the first time and had a fantastic day out. Entry was inexpensive, and we bought food bags so we could feed the animals as we walked around the farm. The reception area has a lovely shop full of local produce, and the café offers a great range of hot meals, cakes, treats and drinks, all set within a beautiful countryside-style interior. We enjoyed feeding the pigs, cows, sheep and goats along the clearly marked paths. The pigs had recently given birth, and the piglets were absolutely adorable. We also paid extra to bottle‑feed the lambs, which was a real highlight—they were so cute and playful. All the staff were cheerful, helpful and welcoming throughout our visit. There’s plenty to do, especially for families with young children. A wonderful place to spend a relaxed day in the countryside.
it was a nice dry day today and I thought what can we do last minute and so I decided to take my kids to Church farm. it was a spontaneous visit and it was lovely. ok maybe not the best time of year but a lovely place to be in the nature away from devices. we walked around the farm, fed the animals and nice lunch. the staff were ever so nice, food served pretty quick and it was lovely. you can also buy fresh eggs and other products and I think it's also a nice way to support our local community and farmers. very reasonable prices and to be honest my boys age 12 had such a nice time. I didn't know if they were "too" old for it but farms are for all ages and animals lovers. Thank you the lovely guy in the cafe who was ever so kind too. we will return in April 🤗
We visited the farm to see Santa. It was very magical and christmassy. We enjoyed exploring the farm. The staff were all friendly and welcoming. However, Santa felt rushed, he forgot to ask our children what they wanted for christmas. There was also a very limited choice of toys to choose from and was more focused on younger children. Limited options for my 10 year old daughter. I would say the experience is more focused on younger children.
