Occombe Farm
Paignton, DevonAbout Occombe Farm
Occombe Farm is an exciting all-weather family destination, with play, animals, a farm shop and cafes.
Our farm attraction is a mix of animals and play. Our play barn is outdoor play; indoors! A unique space for imaginary fun and adventures, with cliff faces to scramble up, a giant winkle shell to climb inside, slides to soar down, a shipwreck to clamber over. Outdoors discover a giant strawbale maze, mini tractors, play-houses and a Messy kitchen for cooking up a truly disgusting feast!
Our Animal Barn gets you up close to some of our farm animals and there’s daily interaction sessions for cuddles, tickles and pampering too! Follow the self-guided paddocks trail to see donkeys, sheep, chickens, ducks and more.
When it’s time to refuel, head to the Occombe Farm Café for hearty breakfasts, lunches, afternoon tea, or simply coffee and cakes. Our Café is located at the heart of the farm where you can dine indoors or out, with stunning countryside views across Torbay. There’s also a wide selection of super-fast fill-ups for the whole family at our Play Barn Kiosk too. Pasties, toasties and sweet treats for kids and grown-ups!
