Farmer Palmer's

Originally a dairy farm, Farmer Palmers became a visitor attraction in 1998 and is specially designed for families with children 8 years and under.

There is a busy animal barn timetable with an event every half hour including lamb and goat feeding, handling pigs and guinea pigs and grooming the ponies.

There is also a daily cow milking demonstration which is both educational and entertaining. Other attractions include tractor rides around the open grass fields and tracks, Straw Mountain - a huge barn filled with large straw bales which support a network of tunnels and slides, an outdoor sand playgound, an indoor soft playbarn, indoor and outdoor bouncy castles, maize maze and a woodland walk round part of an old Victorian duck pond and alongside Sherford River.

There is also a 100 seater restaurant specialising in delicious, traditional farmhouse fare and homemade cakes and a gift shop.
