Welcome To Devon's Award Winning Farm!

Yes, all visitors must book in advance online. We carefully limit the number of guests each day to ensure a calm and enjoyable experience for both our animals and our visitors. This helps keep queues short, spaces peaceful, and activities running smoothly. Once booked, simply bring your e-ticket on your phone (no need to print) and head straight to the entrance when you arrive. Booking in advance also guarantees your spot on busy days, especially weekends and holidays.

Your day ticket gives you full access to everything that makes a visit to Pennywell Farm magical. Enjoy a full day of hands-on farm activities and animal encounters, with a new show or experience every 30 minutes — from bottle-feeding goat kids to helping groom our miniature ponies. You’ll also get to FREE rides, access to both indoor and outdoor play areas, and a seat at the legendary pig racing at 12:30 p.m. Plus, there are unlimited animal cuddles with our friendly pigs, donkeys, rabbits, and more.

Optional extras like food and drink from our farm cafe, keepsakes from the gift shop, and £1 coin-operated rides are available on-site but not included in the ticket price.

No need to print your tickets. Simply show the QR code on your phone when you arrive our team will scan it at the entrance. It’s faster, easier, and more environmentally friendly. If you’re booking for friends or family, you can forward their tickets to them digitally too. Just make sure your screen brightness is up and the QR code is clearly visible to keep things moving smoothly at check-in.

Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered, literally!

Our Wet-Weather Guarantee means that if it rains continuously for more than 30 minutes during your visit, you’ll receive a FREE return ticket, valid for any day within the next 7 days. We want your Pennywell experience to be full of fun, not soggy socks. Simply visit the shop before you leave to claim your return ticket. We also have plenty of indoor activities, undercover animal areas, and cosy spaces to keep the fun going rain or shine.

Absolutely, cuddling the animals is one of the best parts of a visit to Pennywell! Our Pet & Piggy Cuddle Corner is open throughout the day (with a short lunchtime break) and gives you the chance to get up close with our famous miniature pigs, fluffy rabbits, guinea pigs, and more.

To make the experience safe and cosy for both you and the animals, we ask that you use a pet cuddle blanket, which can be purchased for £3.50 from the gift shop. You’re welcome to keep it as a souvenir of your day. Animal cuddles are unlimited, so feel free to pop back as many times as you like during your visit, it’s a firm favourite for guests of all ages.

Yes, we aim to make Pennywell Farm as accessible and welcoming as possible for all our visitors. Most of our main barn areas and activity zones are step-free and suitable for wheelchairs, mobility scooters, and pushchairs. Paths leading to the lower paddocks are made of compacted gravel, which most wheelchairs can navigate, though assistance may be helpful on steeper areas.

We also provide accessible toilet facilities, and there are dedicated accessible parking spaces located close to the main entrance for ease of access. If you have specific accessibility needs or questions before your visit, feel free to contact our team, we’re happy to help plan your day and ensure a comfortable experience.

Yes, there are plenty of tasty options to keep you fuelled during your visit! Our Coffee Cabin is open every day, serving barista-made coffee, freshly baked cakes, Devon pasties, and light bites throughout the day.

On weekends and during school holidays, you’ll also find additional outlets offering delicious stone-baked pizzas, serving up German hot dogs and snacks. For more information on food at Pennywell Farm visit our food and drink page.
