Belmont Farm
A working farm tucked inside the M25 where kids can get up close to over thirty kinds of animals, including alpacas, sheep, goats, and wallabies. Jump on a tractor trailer ride to tour the fields, buy small bags of animal feed at the entrance to provide your own snack time, and stop at the farm café for a decent lunch. It is far less manic than the mega farm parks, making it ideal for a relaxed morning out with younger children.

Willows Activity Farm
Breathe the country air and release the energetic toddlers and kids - this huge farm park is themed around Peter Rabbit and his friends. It's a pricey entrance fee but then everything's included - from bounce on giant inflatable pillows to the chance to drive miniature tractors, hop on the Tristan the Runaway Tractor ride, meet real farm animals in the undercover barn - plus the real winner on rainy days: the huge indoor soft play area, complete with slides and obstacle courses. Pre-booking online is a good idea as peak dates regularly sell out.
