Piglets Adventure Farm is open to the public daily on weekends 10am-5pm and weekdays 10:30am-5pm.
​
We spent just over 3 hours there on a cloudy cold day. We could easily have spent the whole 10:30am-5pm day here if it was sunny due to the beach area they offer.
​
At Piglets Adventure Farm, there was a few farm animals in their farm section. This included goats, sheep, pigs and a few more. When we went lamb bottle feeding was also offered free of charge. There were many different outdoor play areas which included mini golf, a beach, dino dig and gem mining, bouncing pillows (one for under 5-year-olds and one for over 5-year-olds), pedal go karts a gift shop and a few park/climbing sections. There was also a tractor ride which takes you to a separate part of the adventure park which had an indoor beach with diggers, large slides, mini tractors to ride and a cafe area with seating.
​
Our two favourite areas were the outdoor beach section and the pedal go karts.
The pedal go karts had two sizes available. A larger size more suitable for an adult and a smaller size more suitable for children. We found this a great family activity and had lots of fun racing each other around the tarmacked track.
​
The outdoor beach was a large size. There was seating available at the top, as well as beach huts which can be hired out. On the beach there was a large slide and many water activities for the children to take part in. The dino dig and gem mining was also at the bottom of the beach area.
​
There is plenty of parking available in a hard surface carpark. There is also disabled parking spaces available. Parking is free of charge.
​
While at Piglets Adventure Farm, you can stop for something to eat at either their cafe, seasonal ice-cream parlour, seasonal beach cafe, or pizza parlour. There was both indoor and outdoor picnic benches to also enjoy a home brought lunch. While there we purchased a large Oreo slice of cake, a kid’s box (sandwich, carton of drink, piece of fruit and crisps), two portions of curly fries, an adult fizzy drink bottle and two large fruit shoots which came to £19.85.
​
When we visited, our eldest was 3 years old and our youngest was 18 months. We found this to be a fun family day out but was more suited to children under the age of 12.
​
We found three blocks of toilets around the attraction which changing facilities were in all. Accessibility toilets were also available. We liked the fact that some of the toilets had 2 in 1 toilet seat lids which meant a child's toilet size seat was built in and able to be used if needed.
​
There were gravel paths however we did not struggle to push our pushchair around. There was also a pushchair parking area outside of the tractor ride section.
​
Overall, we would visit again. When we saw staff, they were friendly and helpful to us, and we felt they really enjoyed their jobs by how enthusiastic they all were. The land the attraction had was quite large, there was a variety of sections for children to play, however we felt there could have been more farm animals here, therefore we have rated this day out 4 1/2 stars out of 5.
