About the Farm:

Lancaster Park & Animal Farm in Greater Manchester is a family-run escape into the world of farm animals and nature. The farm’s gravel paths offer a rustic yet somewhat accessible experience, suitable for most visitors.

Though the farm does not host birthday parties or weddings, it remains a favourite for casual visits, with facilities including toilets blocks that feature accessible options and baby changing facilities. The farm encourages informal visits without the need for booking, allowing families to explore at their leisure.

From cuddly rabbits to majestic horses and even dinosaurs, the farm offers a diverse range of animals to meet. Activities extend beyond animal encounters, featuring digger rides and go-karts, ensuring a lively visit for all ages.

A small van provides hot drinks, and there’s a snack bar for light refreshments, though visitors might want to bring their own food to enjoy during their stay. Lancaster Park & Animal Farm promises a delightful half-day adventure, blending educational experiences with fun in a traditional farm setting.
