Indoor Playbarn

For all-weather fun, take time out in our Indoor Playbarn, where children will love climbing aboard the pirate ship, discovering the secret rooms in the spooky castle, riding on the pedal-karts and playing football. In October 2022 we opened a new multi-level indoor adventure play area suitable for all ages, with soft play equipment, three huge slides and fun ball cannons, along with a dedicated role play area and soft play for under fives. Also for our younger visitors, there is a dedicated carpeted area in the centre of the Playbarn, with toys especially for under fours.

The Indoor Playbarn is open daily from 10am to 4.45pm. Socks must be worn at all times

The new and improved Laughing Donkey Cafe can be found in the Indoor Playbarn. It's open from 10am to 5pm daily, serving food until 3pm on weekdays and until 4pm during weekends and on Bank Holidays. 

Jenny & Jack's indoor adventure has been part funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development: Europe investing in rural areas.

The World of Dinosaur Roar!

We are delighted to have The World of Dinosaur Roar! Discovery Trail right here at Manor Farm Park & Woodlands. Our exciting trail features life-size dinosaur models in a natural woodland setting, bringing to life the delightful series of The World of Dinosaur Roar! children’s books and characters created by Peter Curtis, based on Dinosaur Roar! by Paul Stickland and Henrietta Stickland and produced in association with the Natural History Museum in London.

Along the trail, you’ll be able to meet Dinosaur ROAR the Tyrannosaurus rex, Dinosaur STOMP the Triceratops, Dinosaur WHACK the Stegosaurus, Dinosaur WHIZZ the Coelophysis, Dinosaur FLAP the Oviraptor and Dinosaur BOO the Deinonychus along our new Discovery Trail. Joining them soon will be Dinosaur MUNCH the Diplodocus.

Great Food at Great Prices

When tummies are rumbling, call into Antlers Bistro, located at the main entrance, or the Laughing Donkey Café, which you can find in the Indoor Playbarn. Alternatively, pick up a snack from one of our seasonal kiosks.

If you prefer to bring a packed lunch, you’ll find lots of picnic benches around the farm, including sheltered spaces in our two picnic huts. Packed lunches are also very welcome in the Indoor Playbarn, we just ask you not to bring your own food into the Laughing Donkey Café.
