# Down at the Farm

> Animal Fun Farm The North’s most interactive children's animal farm experience

Down during the Farm aims to bring the countryside and education together, spread with a little bit of fun.This farm that is working founded back in the eighteenth century and it has evolved through the years to a sizable cattle farm which also keeps sheep, donkeys and pigs along with a few other non-native types such as for instance reindeer, snowy owls, raccoons, meerkats and reptiles.Visitors can get tangled up in washing the pigs, feeding the lambs or grooming the donkeys. There are several non-farm activities to take pleasure from too like a large bouncing that is outdoor, rushing vehicle track, sandpit and a maze. For a little added cost jump in a tractor or barrel train for a ride across the farm, ride your very own quad bicycle or climb the tree house for a view that is brilliant! A natural farm area where children will enjoy the animals and air that is fresh!
