Fantastic farm with lovely cafe, very well cared for animals and plenty to do (especially over half term). I used to come here as a little girl and it's such a joy to now bring my own children here too. They are a charity so you know the money you spend goes right back into caring for the farm and the animals. Will visit many times again ☺️

Reasonable price to get in at £20.80 for a family of 4. We visited today on a dry bank holiday Monday. The park was lovely, a few animals to veiw and a nature walk. I really did not expect the cafe prices to be as high at £43 odd for just x2 ham&cheese toasties, x2 small pizza twists, x4 crisps, a latte, orange juice, apple juice and a small childs hippo flavoured water. I'd advise taking your own lunch. Ok for an hour or two hours out, but not for the day. I fully admire the charity work with the animals, but i doubt we will return again.

Excellent day out at Amelia Trust Farm for my son's 3rd birthday last week. The team were so friendly and helpful, prior to the day with the booking (thanks Ellie) and the rangers on the day. We booked the indoor meeting space which was the perfect size for 25 of us, with toilets right outside and close proximity to the barn and cafe for extra drinks. Being allowed to bring your own buffet/picnic was ideal. We visited the barn and some of the children got to stroke a ferret and a rabbit. Nice size farm for small children, a barn, a reptile room and some paddocks outside. A bargain price at £5pp, all going to the charity run Trust. The new park is excellent and we actually spent almost 4 hours at the farm as the weather was glorious the kids didn't want to leave! The farm is easy to find and plenty of free parking. Thanks again for all your help, I would recommend ATF to all.

An affordable and perfect day out for the whole family. Easy location to get to, plenty of parking, good variety of farm animals; sheep, goats, donkeys, alpacas, pony, rabbits, ferrets, even some reptiles! And if that isn’t enough to keep everyone busy, there’s also a playground, cafe, a vegetable patch, beautiful gardens and a few trails in the woodland. Even managed to see some newts in the pond. Lots of pretty gems to discover - Bring your wellies!

Really enjoyed our visit! Very reasonably priced. Enjoyed seeing the animals, which seem very well cared for, and a good mix of things to see. Enjoyed the woodland walks too. Nice coffee and hot chocolate in the cafe! Would recommend!!
