Rabbit Awareness Week

24th Jun - 28th Jun 2024

Join us in the Animal Chat Room from Monday 24th to Friday 28th June 2024 as we celebrate this year's Rabbit Awareness Week. 

At 11am every day, we'll be using recycled objects to make rabbit chews, grass seed trays & tube feeders and at 2pm children can join in with our rabbit grooming activity.

Children will love our small animal petting sessions, plus our falconry flying demonstration which takes place at 1pm every day. And at 4pm, you can watch the goats go in for their dinner. 

Owl holding is available on Thursday, Wednesday and Friday. Bird handling is available on Monday and Thursday. Both activities are an additional £1.

A day in the countryside

Children can also have fun in our two outdoor playgrounds and enjoy over 25 acres of wide open spaces, safe for little ones to run around and explore.

Why not treat yourself to lunch in either Antlers Bistro or the Laughing Donkey Cafe. Or, if you'd like to bring a picnic, you'll find lots of picnic benches around the farm, as well as by the indoor adventure play area (not in the Cafe though please). 

You'll find us in East Leake, which is easily accessible from Nottingham, Leicester and Derby - LE12 6LU.
