🎃 October Half Term is creeping closer... 👀

From 17 October – 1 November, come and spend an autumn day at Tapnell Farm Park, with all your favourite indoor and outdoor Farm Park fun, animals to meet, daily animal activities and a few spooky surprises along the way.

🕷️ Discover fascinating (and sometimes pretty gross!) facts about the local and native bugs you might find around a farm, with Halloween-themed fact-card displays and an activity sheet taking you from the Webbed Barn and Rotten Log to the Muddy Pond and even life in a cow pat! Plus, guess how many plastic spiders are hiding in the jar for your chance to win a £50 voucher.

🎨 Get creative with Halloween colouring in our Farm Crafts area, or choose a china pumpkin or monster to paint in our Halloween-themed pottery painting area inside the Animal Barn.*

🐷 Meet the animals in the Animal Barn and around the Farm Park, and get even closer with daily Guinea Pig Fishing, Alpaca Feed, Pig Feeding and Meet the Guinea Pigs activities.

🎃 Strike a pose at our Halloween-themed photo spot.

🙌 Enjoy pedal go-karts, Mini Golf, Footy Shoot Out, zip wires, the Trim Trail and loads more outdoor fun. And whatever the October weather decides to do, head indoors for soft play, Tiny Tapnell, trampolines, Tower Slide, Shoot the Hoop and inflatable obstacle courses.

PLUS... BOO-MANIA is back! 👻

Join AJ on Tuesday 27 & Thursday 29 October, 1-4pm, for two afternoons of monster mash-up fun, with music, games, laughter, dancing and jaw-dropping tricks. Expect glow sessions, a BIG balloon drop, confetti explosions and plenty more Halloween chaos!

Costumes are very much encouraged – for little monsters and grown-ups alike. 🎃

📅 17 October – 1 November
⏰ Open daily, 10am–5pm
🎟️ Halloween activities, daily animal activities & BOO-MANIA included with Farm Park admission*
🙌 Summer Season Passes valid throughout half term

Visiting the Farm Park from tomorrow (1 September)? A little heads-up! 👋

With the summer holidays coming to an end, we’re switching back to our usual weekday entrance via the Guest Hub from tomorrow.

📍 Monday–Friday
Please head to the Guest Hub, opposite The Cow Restaurant, to enter the Farm Park. You’ll also find a small selection of gifts available there, with the main Gift Shop open from 3pm.

📍 Weekends
You can enter via either the usual Farm Park entrance or the Guest Hub, with both the Guest Hub and main Gift Shop open.

And while the summer holidays might be over, the Farm Park is still open every day, 10am–5pm! 🙌

Just something to bear in mind when you arrive – we look forward to seeing you! 💛

🎄 Festive Fun at Tapnell Farm Park! 🎄

We're doing Christmas a little differently this year!

Rather than our usual ticketed Christmas event, from 1–24 December we're filling the Farm Park with Christmas cheer, twinkling trees, seasonal decorations and plenty of festive touches for the whole family to enjoy – all part of your usual Farm Park admission! ✨

Here's what's happening...

🐷 Meet our Christmas Animal Barn characters!
Our Animal Barn is transforming into a charming Christmas stable, with our resident animals taking on some rather important Christmas roles! Meet our Christmas pudding pigs, little Christmas donkeys, mischievous furry elves and more, each with their own Christmas story to read as you explore.

🎄 Follow our Festive Farm Trail
Pick up an activity sheet and follow the trail, meeting our Christmas animal characters, reading their stories and completing your sheet along the way.

✉️ Letters to Santa & Christmas Crafts
Little ones can write their Christmas letter to Santa and post them in our special Christmas post box, plus enjoy Christmas colouring in our Farm Crafts area.

📸 Christmas trees & family photos
Look out for our big Christmas tree in the Animal Barn and stop by our Christmas sleigh photo spot for a family snap!

🐾 All your favourite Farm Park activities, too!
There's still plenty of indoor and outdoor play, animals to meet and adventures to enjoy, whatever the December weather brings.

🎟️ No separate Christmas ticket needed! Our Christmas Animal Barn and festive displays are included with normal Farm Park admission or a valid Winter Season Pass. Some optional craft activities may carry a small additional charge.

Please note, we won't be running our traditional Christmas event or Father Christmas visits this year.

Gather the family and come and enjoy a Christmassy day out on the farm this December! ❤️

Jumping Pillows Update

Unfortunately, independent checks we commissioned on our new Jumping Pillows have identified issues with the installation that require remedial work on both pillows before we can open them.

This means they will remain closed throughout October half term and until further notice.

We know many of you have been looking forward to their return, and we share your frustration and disappointment that we haven’t been able to open them as planned.

We’re working to get this resolved as quickly as possible. We don’t yet have a reopening date, but we’ll share an update as soon as we have more information.

We’re really sorry for the continued delay and any disappointment this may cause. There’s still plenty to enjoy at the Farm Park, including indoor soft play, outdoor adventures, meeting the animals and our Halloween half-term activities.

Thank you for your patience and understanding 💛 by @tapnellfarmpark

Good morning from Tapnell Farm 🌅

Quiet mornings, open countryside and the first light of a new day.

A beautiful sunrise from yesterday captured by one of our onsite team. Just a little glimpse of life on the farm 🤎

Sharing is caring… apparently 😂🥬

One piece of lettuce. Two very determined guinea pigs.

Parents, this feel familiar? 👀

Jumping Pillows update 🛝

Unfortunately, we’ve had some further unexpected delays with the installation of our new Jumping Pillows, which means they’re still closed for the time being.

We know lots of you have been looking forward to trying them out (and we’ve been just as excited to get them open!), so we’re really sorry for the continued delay and any inconvenience caused.

We’re working to get everything completed and ready for you to enjoy as soon as possible, but we won’t reopen the Jumping Pillows until everything is exactly as it should be.

We’ll let you know as soon as we have a reopening date. In the meantime, the rest of the Farm Park remains open as usual, with plenty of indoor and outdoor fun to enjoy.

Thank you for bearing with us 💛 by @tapnellfarmpark
