Hoo Farm is a real children's paradise where there is always something happening.

Get out and about and come to Hoo Farm Animal Kingdom, famous for the Sheep Steeple chasing and daily goat races.

Hoo Farm also offers a fantastic range of hands on, exciting and family orientated entertainment.

Feed the lambs by the bottle, meet the small animals, take part in the animal handling sessions and teach the parrots to talk in parrot - phernalia.

The farm trail leads you along rustic paths where an incredible selection of animals can be found at every turn. Look out for pigs, Highland cattle, Meerkats, Wallabies, Foxes, Owls, Ostriches, Emus, Alpacas, Llamas to name but a few.

Step inside to find insects and reptiles galore in Will's Wild World, the bravest of you may even get the chance to handle a lizard or stroke a snake!

Anyone can be creative in the Crazy Craft Cabin where you can turn your hand to pottery, painting, candle dipping of even printing a bag. Other young members of the family may prefer to take a spin on a quad bike or for something a little more laid back a pony ride around the woodland track.

The Hungry Shepherd Tea Room serves a selection of snacks for you to enjoy whilst watching the children burn off some energy on the outdoor and indoor play areas. Finally to round off your day nicely visit the farm gift shop where you can take an element of the fun home with you!
