As a family we were first time visitors aged from 4 to 68 and had a thoroughly good day. All the activities were very well planned and good for all age groups.
Thank you Linda for your lovely comment! We would love to see you all on the farm again soon for your second visit!
I have not been to Pennywell farm for quite a few years and we decided to bring the grandchildren today, the first day of the pumpkin patch month. I have to say the whole family have had a brilliant day and throughly enjoyed every minute. We enjoyed hunting down the pumpkins and we also bought a few pumpkins too, spicy pumpkin soup will be made with them yum yum. I have to say the staff were very helpful and informative which made the day good. We also enjoyed our piggy cuddles before we left, thank you Pennywell farm.
Thank you so much for this lovely comment Melanie! We are so glad you had an amazing day at the farm and enjoyed our Pumpkin Festival. Spicy Pumpkin Soup sounds delicious! Hope to see you at the farm again soon for more Piggy cuddles and lots more farmyard fun π
I cannot recommend Pennywell Farm highly enough! By far the best value day out we have ever had with our granddaughters! We have been busy all day, and there is still more we could have done. The staff ate so pleasant and smiley! The shows were really funny! Dan was amazing! The highlight was all of the lovely animals! From the ferrets to the piglets! Simply wonderful!
Thank you so much for your amazing review. It’s great to hear you and your granddaughters had the best time with us π We would love to welcome you all back to the farm again soon.
