Animal Experiences
Get hands-on
Our fascinating daily encounters programme gives all of our visitors a taster of animal feeding time, grooming or petting.
But, what if you’d love to try something more involved?
It’s not every day that you can prepare breakfast for a pig, have a go at being a farm keeper, or get some one on one time with your favourite animal, which is why we also offer private encounters and hands-on experiences, led by our expert farm team.
Reindeer Encounter
In this special reindeer encounter, you can meet one of our expert rangers at our Wildlife Hub for the chance to get up close to our resident reindeer. Learn more about these fascinating creatures in a private encounter for 2 people.
Farm Keeper Experience
This is an exciting farm experience in the company of an expert farm team member. It involves feeding, grooming and cleaning out various farm animals and small furries, while learning how to handle and care for them.
Private Animal Encounter
These popular private animal encounters can be tailor-made to suit visitors of all ages. They are exclusive, hands-on group experiences for up to 6 people - ideal for a birthday or family treat. Choose from our small furries, farm friends or curious critters, and we'll help you get up-close with your favourites, led by one of our trained farm and wildlife team.
