We've lived around the corner for 12 years but visited the farm for the first time today with our 6 and 8 Yr Olds. We've never been because of the astronomical entry fees but today they had a special on £5 pp which was worth every penny. They have a wide variety of healthy looking animals and the staff were all brilliant and so friendly.

The food is very pricey which is expected luckily I always pack a picnic. The hot chocolate was £4.50 making 2 almost as much as the entry fee 😳 (and only 1 average sized marshmallow?, should include a handful for that price with a cookie too 😜).

The playground is very dated and basic, Stamford park has much better equipment and is free entry.

I would suggest adding some coin operated mini diggers and I didn't see any go carts? - that would add more value.
Unfortunately the tractor ride was not open possibly due to the ground being frosty so I can't comment on that.
I saw the donut stand but unfortunately didn't see ice cream being sold?
It's a small compact farm so I wouldn't say we'd be back soon as we saw it all (and ate) within 3 hours and we were lucky with the reptile and cuddle corner queues.

Last thought: The exit via the gift shop ploy would be best left to tourist attraction venues not a petting farm.

Cockfields is well worth visiting. The staff are so pleasant and helpful. We visited Christmas Eve, the events was amazing, so much fun and involved children participating so well. Well worth the money, will be visiting again👍👍👍

We all had an amazing day at the grinch event yesterday. The ‘games with grinch’ session surpassed expectations. He was absolutely brilliant and was in full character at all times. The costume was brilliant also. He even made up for the extortionate gift shop prices haha.

Great day out with our baby! She loved the tractor ride, petting the animals and playing on the baby swing in the park.

All animals looked well cared for and staff were friendly.

We also enjoyed our pizza too!

A good place to take the kids for a few hours. Not a massive farm so can be done quickly.
Food isn’t bad with plenty of choice.
Cuddle corner is good to pet some animals.
Could do with more toilets as they get very busy
Ample parking on site and friendly staff.
Nearly everything is flat too which is good for older people.
