​We had a fantastic time at Marsh Farm the other day! We visited specifically for Toddler Fest, and it did not disappoint. ​If you have younger children, this place is absolutely perfect. Our 2-year-old had an amazing time and was completely entertained from start to finish. The activities, entertainment, and pace of the event are perfectly tailored to little ones, making it stress-free for parents, too. ​What we loved: ​Tailored for Toddlers: Unlike some farms where the activities are geared toward older kids, Marsh Farm really focuses on the magical, younger years. ​Toddler Fest Highlights: The music, interactive areas, and sensory fun were spot-on for a 2-year-old. ​Great Atmosphere: Safe, welcoming, and packed with things to see and do. ​We will definitely be back. Highly recommend Marsh Farm if you’re looking for a brilliant, hassle-free day out with toddlers!

An amazing place which was nicely laid out, friendly staff, could have done with a bit better maps around the place though, but was fun to explore. The kids loved it which was the main thing. Drinks were a bit pricey though at £2:40 a can, but didn't detract from the day.

We visited today with our baby. Positives are that the staff are very welcoming and friendly both the staff at the welcome desk, the lovely lady who did the alpaca feeding and the lady who served us at the restaurant. Loved the little beach and the bouncy pillows and that there are little rides which is great! There’s even a wonky house which is unexpected. The baby changing facility room for both breastfeeding and changing was amazing. Really clean and great space! Appreciate it not always possible to just take baby’s on my own in the ladies toilets so appreciated this area! Negatives - and is a big one really as we didn't feel there were many animals! We found it really confusing without a map as to where to go and then quickly realised that there wasnt many animals which was disappointing. We also waited for the pig feeding that the app said was about to take place and no one turned up. We purchased food for the goats which we was asked about when we got our tickets and once we come home and saw on the website it was also for the sheep. No where at the farm did it say it was also for the sheep so that was a shame. We had snacks in the restaurant and hot drinks which were nice. The soft play is in the restaurant and the toddler section wasn’t very good for a young toddler. My child is 11 months and wasn’t really much there for her. Overall we had a nice day but wouldn’t rush back which is a shame.

I absolutely loved my visit to Marsh Farm. My daughter had an amazing time and enjoyed every moment. The atmosphere is lovely, very family-friendly, and there’s plenty to do for kids. Everything was well organized, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit. It’s a great place to spend quality time with children. I highly recommend it for families — we’ll definitely be coming back!

Overall me and family had a good time, kids enjoyed it. I've given a 4 star as there isn't much to see, only goats, sheeps and ponies. I was expecting to see more animals. Hopefully they can expand and add a lot more varieties. Nonetheless, the kids enjoyed the park, bus, rides, indoor soft play and the dinosaurs.
