Snettisham Park

King's Lynn, United Kingdom•4.5(636)•Country Park, Farm, Wildlife Center

Experience a 329-acre working Norfolk farm featuring a spectacular 45-minute deer safari, farmyard activities, pony rides, and walking trails suitable for all ages.

Snettisham Park is a working Norfolk farm that has welcomed families since 1986, offering a unique blend of agricultural education and outdoor adventure. The farm spans 329 acres and features a magnificent herd of red deer, 400 sheep, horses, ponies, and various farmyard animals. The centerpiece is the spectacular 45-minute deer safari, where visitors travel by tractor and covered trailer to get close encounters with the red deer herd, which visitors can hand-feed. Beyond the safari, families can enjoy bottle-feeding lambs during lambing season, collecting fresh farm eggs, and riding ponies during school holidays. Three walking trails of varying distances wind through the farm, catering to different fitness levels and preferences. The farmyard area offers seasonal activities that change throughout the year, ensuring each visit presents something different. Snettisham Park is fully accessible for families with pushchairs, welcomes well-behaved dogs on leads (except on the safari), and operates seven days a week. The on-site Visitors Centre and Tea Room provides refreshments, and the venue offers special packages for school groups and children's parties, making it ideal for family outings, educational visits, and celebrations.

Took our 17yo daughter, yes that’s not a typo, had a fabulous time. Staff are excellent and passionate about what they do. It’s not a petting zoo, but works similarly. Animal encounters and feeding are the order of the day, and dog friendly to boot. Deer safari exceeded expectations and was great fun, feeding the deer which are very cute. There’s some walks available too which suited the dog, who had become over excited by the farm animals. Highly recommended whatever your family age or number. There’s also a cafe, farm shop and gift shop.

A real gem 💎 Had a brilliant day at Snettisham Park - we booked the farm entry and deer safari and truly, it was worth every penny. The staff are super helpful and really friendly. we got to see so many deer (plus newborns, if you’re there in June like we were, you might be super lucky and see some) and feed them, which was a unique experience, for a species that’s usually so timid. After the safari, we got to feed lambs and calves (all included within the price) as well as goats for a small £1 per bag fee. Lunch was tasty and affordable, with a coffee and freshly made toastie from the tearoom only £9. Back British farming and get yourself down here! 🇬🇧

Such a wonderful day out for all 😊 Food from their cafe was freshly made, the farm animals were well carer for in the heat and getting to feed the goats and help bottle feeding the lambs where definitely some highlights! The deer safari was the best part, loved learning all about the history of Snettisham and then being able to feed the hinds and 3 stags right off our hand 🙌🏻 Every single member of staff looked to be loving what they did and loved it when people asked them any questions, no question was stupid for them 😊

Enjoyed a really lovely great day out today at Snettisham Deer Farm Park. Myself and my 6 year old daughters first time here, we absolutely loved it and will definitely be coming back. The Deer Trailor Feeding Trip was brilliant, very enjoyable and Trevor was extremely knowledgeable and made it very good indeed. The Donkey ride was also brilliant, my daughter loved it. Feeding the 6 day old lambs too which was a delight. Tea Room, Shop, Play Area and all the other animals made it a great day too with plenty of activities with the animals to join in with. All the staff were friendly and really helpful too. Overall, well worth a trip out here and will be coming back again. Thanks for a lovely day out.
