A Wonderful Day Out at The Bucks Goat Centre! We had such a fantastic time visiting the Bucks Goat Centre! From the moment we arrived, we were met with a welcoming atmosphere. The staff are friendly, passionate, and happy to chat about all the animals, which made the experience feel truly special. Here are a few highlights from our visit: - The Animals: Getting up close to feed and pet the goats was an absolute joy. They are so gentle and full of personality! There are plenty of other lovely animals to see too. - Value for Money: It is reasonably priced. You get a full, hands-on experience without breaking the bank, making it a perfect choice for a family day out. - The Cafe: A beautiful way to round off the visit. The onsite cafe is absolutely lovely, serving up nice treats and good coffee in a cozy, relaxing setting. It’s a charming, well-run farm that brings a smile to your face. We will definitely be back soon!

Bucks Goat Centre is a lovely, friendly place to visit, especially with kids. It’s a small farm but full of character, with plenty of goats as well as ducks, chickens, rabbits, pigs, a parrot, and even a cute alpaca. Children can run around freely, get up close to the animals, and enjoy feeding them, which makes it a really hands-on experience. There’s also a nice area for relaxing, playing, or having a picnic, and a café on-site serving food if you fancy a break. The staff are welcoming and friendly, which adds to the overall warm atmosphere. A great spot for a fun and relaxed family day out.

An amazing day at Bucks Goat Centre. Booked a mini experience which was amazing with Tegan. Our niece is in a wheelchair and the whole team from the initial email and phone call made sure this experience was tailored to all of her special needs. Lauren was made to feel special from the moment we arrived. Great value only £20 for a mini experience which included the entrance and some food for the goats. The experience was priceless , to see lauren laugh and instantly relax with Apricot the goat and Peppa the rabbit.A wonderful lunch after the experience in the cafe, with once again , lovely staff and kindness. The whole experience, bought tears to our eyes. Wonderful centre , cannot recommend highly enough. Lauren’s 21st birthday was memorable. A huge thanks from all the family. We will be back.

LOVE this place to come with small children. The white fox Jasper is beautiful. We were told to throw the food in for the pigs, which we did & loved watching them sniffling it all up. The goats were very gentle taking the food from the children - they use their lips to almost suck it up & the kids LOVED feeding them & the alpaca too. Fabulous way to spend a long morning with small children. We loved the rabbits & the chickens too. Brilliant sandpit & ride on toys too. Friendly staff. Good picnic area. Highly recommend.
