Fantastic day out today, staff are really friendly and there was so much to see but plenty of time to get round it all. kids loved it relaxed atmosphere and the animals are so well cared for. Thankyou for a lovely day all 6 of us will definitely be back!!
I loved my experience at βThe meadows wildlife parkβ. Main reason because they have a wide range of animal species, and they allow close interaction with them. I loved the opportunity to pet a bearded dragon and feed the goats. That was the first time I saw a bearded dragon and alpacas. Absolutely loved the overall experience. They also have a canteen with amazing food and beverages. The staff was very friendly and helpful. HIGHLY RECOMMEND π―β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ Definitely gonna revisit π
We had our summer party at The Meadows and canβt recommend it more. The farm itself was absolutely lovely with amazing creatures great and small to see. We got to interact with a number of the animals during our time at the farm with some of the team educating us about them and making the experience very personal. We then moved on to the event space for the evening which was absolutely beautiful. The whole team was impressed and kept saying how much they loved it. There was a lot of drinks options available and the pizza was delicious. The whole team were so friendly and professional and so happy to help. Lucy who we dealt with through the whole booking of the party was great and so accommodating to any queries or questions we had. We are sure many of the team will be returning. Thank you so much Meadows for a great evening!
Visited there today and what an amazing few hours out. The park is lovely, the staff were super friendly and helpful and the animals melted my heart. You can see how much the animals are loved and taken care of. Well worth a visit. Will be going back for sure β€οΈ
What an amazing place!! Had a pygmy goat petting experience as a gift and it was an absolute joy. Brody was very friendly and informative and it was an absolute pleasure to have him as our guide. Also thank you to Jane for showing us the rabbits and guinea pigs. Everyone is so friendly and the animals are amazing and very well looked after. Can't wait to visit again.
Had such a brilliant day out here with my fiancΓ©!, such a lovely place and animals are well taken care of, the staff are so lovely and respectful also take time out if their day to talk to you about the animals, honestly I didn't know about meadow farm until today and I wish I knew sooner! I will definitely be returning. I can not recommend enough, you will not be disappointed, thank you too all the amazing staff for all you do for the animals and customers!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!β‘
We had an absolutely amazing day at Meadows farm. Mainly all thanks to Ashley. What an amazing person he is! He took the time to explain where some of the animals came from and his knowledge of them all was second to none. Completely educated us on what a wonderful place this is, with amazing volunteer staff who care so much for the animals. We will definitely be back.
Ashley, thank you! π
p.s. the murder trial event that was being held on your land were telling people that the farm were responsible for the charging of the parking for their event!
it was actually the CEO Samuel Piri who said this! we put yhe record straight though. He swiftly backtracked once called out though. however, if he thinks its acceptable to tell people the farm are the ones charging, it would be only fair he pays profit from the car parking to the farm!

Had such a lovely afternoon here and I have to give a big thank you to all the staff that were working there today. What lovely people! So informative about all the animals and more than happy to answer any questions. They made the whole experience so much more interesting and went out of their way to ensure we got to see every animal, even the babies π₯°π₯°
Well what a treat we had this week when we attended the corporate event day at this lovely farm village. I highly recommend a wholesome day with the lovely staff who make the experience so much fun, whilst showing just how much they care for the amazing selection of animals they look after here. The meerkats and armadillos were the highlight aswell as walking the goats they were so placid especially Lily π. The afternoon is finished off with food and drinks in their fantastic event tents which are a must see! Thank you we will come again soon!
Such an amazing day out here with the family. Even though we got caught in the rain we still did almost 3 hours there. Did the bird feeding experience which was amazing! We will be going back soon
what a wonderful time we had at meadows farm! Great variety of animals, friendly staff telling us animal names and all of their characters. An amazing space for the animals- lovely variety of different animals too- and really well laid out for visitors. Food was delicious! our first but definitely not our last visit!
We went to a Christmas trip here and I honestly can't recommend it enough! There were so many activities for the children, decorated beautifully and they were thoroughly entertained!
Thank you, what a wonderful experience! We'll be back!
Thank you, what a wonderful experience! We'll be back!
The meadows farm village is a lovely day out for family and friends. Staff were amazing and friendly and the kids had so much fun! Weβve been here twice and will definitely come back again. Thank you for a fab day π
Took my daughter there for the first time to do the whole Christmas experience. I must say it was the best farm I have been too. The staff were super friendly and hard working, environment clean and animals well cared for. Good food, good play areas, large variety of animals and also cute petting areas. The Santaβs grotto was the best one I have ever been too and my daughter getting to stroke a reindeer was the highlight of my daughters day. Honestly couldnβt recommend this place enough.
What a lovely day out.Farm is beautifully kept.Thank you Meg for the great tour.The kids enjoyed it.Would definitely recommend it π
I would definitely recommend! Such a lovely experience. Weβve been a few times now but the most recent was by far the best! My daughter and I spent some quality time together here, looking at all the animals and even touching a turtle, guinea pigs and rabbits. Sheβs such a fan of animals and she still talks about it now π₯° it also helped that the ice cream and cake was yummy too! Will definitely be back again soon. Thank you!
Great few hours out. Friendly and welcoming staff. Adorable animals.
Had such a lovely day here with my two children (1 and 2). We especially loved piggy paradise and petting the rabbits β€οΈ
plenty of animals to see and play areas for the little ones to run around. lovely cafe for refreshments
