Mrs Dowsons Farm in Lancashire is where family fun and farming come together to create a cracking day out for the young ones and the young at heart. It’s all about diving into the world of farming, with everything from dairy delights to feeding and petting the farm animals.

Pricing:

The pricing below shows a farm’s price range for different types of visitors. It includes prices for all-day and half-day visits, playing inside or outside and any other ticket types the farm offers. If you’re bringing little ones, we define toddlers as aged 0-2yrs old but each farm defines them differently. Some split babies (0-1yrs old) and toddlers (1-3yrs old) so it’s best to check on-site before booking.
