Summer Party Wednesday 20th August 2008 Join us for a fun packed day. In the afternoon, there will be a roving entertainer, an inflatable assault course and lots of village fete style games such as Lucky Dip, dart Throwing, Stocks, Hammer a nail, Bat the Rat etc. We will open late until 7pm, so busy parents can perhaps join the rest of the family after work. Normal entry prices apply and all activities are fully inclusive. There will also be a barbeque during the day or you can eat at the Café. We hope this adds up to a great bundle of fun, so come and join us. Our Easter Activities will run for an extended period from Good Friday 21st March to Sunday 20th April. This extended period is due to the different timings of term dates of local counties. The main theme for spring is new life and we have lambs from nearby farms that are either orphaned or rejected by their mothers. With your help we can hand rear these lambs with regular feeding sessions during the day. Times can vary a little from day to day but the lambs are usually fed around 11am, then again around 2pm and finally at around 5pm. The animal theme extends to bunny cuddling sessions, animal feeding and pony rides. Our pricing is now all inclusive so the pony rides are no longer at additional cost. We run a schedule through the day and bunny cuddling and animal feeding are usually just before lunch and again after 4pm. Scheduling for pony rides vary but they will usually be on sometime between 12:30 and 3pm. Throughout the Easter period there will be Easter Trails which if you follow the clues leads to a small reward. Over the Easter weekend there is an Easter Egg Hunt on Good Friday, Easter Saturday, Sunday and Monday. We ask visitors to find golden balls with one per child exchanged for a prize. These balls are replenished through the day. On Easter Sunday we will hold an Easter Bonnet competition. We will also have an all inclusive rollerblading rink for youngster and adults alike to skate round the big rink. We provide the roller blades and all safety equipment. If you have your own equipment you are welcome to use it. |

There are many fun and spooky activities during half term and on Halloween. This year the scary tractor ride will go through the Wicked Woods. There will also be a Field of Screams and our Ghost Train ride will also be back.

Entry prices for Halloween are £6.50 for children and £4.50 for adults. Each pumpkin carved will cost £1.50-3.50 depending on size and some activities cost extra. But as we say the Scary just got Scarier: we will be hosting Fright Nights on Friday 26th, Saturday 27th and Halloween Night itself Wednesday 31st October. On these days we will be open as normal from 9:30am but will stay open later until 8:30pm. Join us for the day or come as it gets dark. On these late days we would like to encourage visits from working families and families with perhaps older children brave enough to take the scary tractor ride, ghost train or field of screams in the DARK! Each of the three Fright Nights will have a short Firework Finale (please note this is not a full firework display). Pumpkin Carving in the Deadly Dungeon Setting; Apple Bobbing; Spooky Tractor Rides; Gruesome Lucky Dip; Mask Making; Badge Making; (some of these at additional cost). Our Halloween Party will be on Friday October 28th and will include a Fancy Dress competition and finish with a short Firework Finale, but please feel free to dress up any time you visit, even let the kids dress up too. See the scary world from the tractor and trailer rides. VISIT US IF YOU DARE !!!! HA HA HA HAAAAAAA!!!!
