About West Lodge Rural Centre

West Lodge Rural Centre is a small, family owned farm that gives you the opportunity to get hands-on experience with a variety of animals.

The cuddle corner is home to the farm’s cute and fluffies where a daily programme helps visitors get as close as possible. Over in the demonstration barn watch and learn about the jobs that take place on a working farm such as sheep shearing and lambing, you can also pick up some freshly laid eggs from the hen and poultry.

The animal paddocks are glorious, green spaces where the larger animals roam and graze. Look out into the countryside and spot sheep, cattle, goats and ponies. The piggery is a very busy and noisy place with new litters every six-eight weeks. Children can also enjoy the outdoor play area and indoor play barn or take a wander down the extensive nature trails.
