Chatsworth Farmyard & Adventure Playground - The famous garden contains spectacular waterworks and you are welcome to walk, picnic and play here and in the surrounding park.

The farmyard and adventure playground welcomes young visitors and families and has special activities throughout the season.

Good fun for the kids. Adventure playground fascinated my two (aged 3 and 5). Animal petting (guinea pigs, kid goats) also kept them quiet. A bit expensive (£5 each for kids and adults alike) plus £2 to park the car. A special treat rather than a weekly event.

We took my 17 month old son to Chatsworth Farm Park in Derbyshire and we had a lovely day. The farm is very nice and the staff were all friendly and helpful. We were really impressed with the adventure playground - my son enjoyed playing in the sand and the older kids had a great time. One warning is that the farm is on the side of a hill - there is a lift between the two main levels but to get to the bottom fields with the pushchair was a bit of a struggle.
