Welcome to Court Farm Country Park
Court Farm provides a safe and enjoyable environment in a beautiful countryside setting where children of all ages can learn all about farming. We are on of the first farms in the country hosting educational and group visits to have achieved full Countryside Educational Visits Accreditation (CEVAS)
Our farm is a mixed farm (crops and livestock) which has now been open to the public for nearly 20 years. It is home to many different kinds of farm animals and pets including pedigree Devon cattle and Texel Sheep. Crops can be seen growing in our fields throughout the year and in the summer we plant a very special maize maze which is harvested at the end of the summer.
Being a member of numerous educational and farming organisations, we can provide access to a variety of useful information packs and support materials that can be used to back up your visit.
With our friendly, experienced guides to show you around, you can be sure of an enjoyable and informative educational visit, and when the learning is over, the children can let off steam in our fantastic indoor and outdoor playgrounds. The perfect visit !
