Venue

Our lake is an ideal size for teaching – not so big as to intimidate children, but still large enough to provide enjoyment on windy days for the more experienced sailor or windsurfer. There is easy launching and recovery from all sides and the wind is good from most directions.

This fifty-acre site with its magnificent Georgian workhouse invites you to explore two centuries of life on the land. There are recreations of shops and homes, extensive displays on farming and village life and the popular Collections Gallery - a real treasure trove. 

The workhouse has a fascinating story to tell that hits home for all ages. On the traditional working farm you can get up close to rare breed animals, take a cart ride and have a go at milking. There are lovely countryside walks and the large courtyard is perfect for picnics and watching the world go by. 

Working farm on the Old Yarr Estate with activities scheduled throughout the day including Animal Encounters, tractor and trailer rides, plus a giant sandpit and play area for younger children.

All our activity sessions are in small groups so you can enjoy a real personal touch and our friendly staff are always happy to answer any questions you have about our animals.

We have many activities to keep the whole family entertained  including our hugely popular animal encounters, tractor trailer rides, crafts, giant sandpit and play area.
