Our All Things Wild Season Passes cannot be used against school visits. Our school visits are very different to a general visit to the farm with lots of additional benefits including a ticket for every paying child to return to the Farm Park at a later date free of charge and schools can ask for up to two free family of four gift vouchers to use as raffle prizes or for fund-raising.
There is no maximum number bring as many as you wish! Please note, however, that prior booking is required for all group or school visits. Anyone turning up without a prior booking will be charged full entrance prices.
The length of time that you spend with us is entirely down to you. Most school groups would aim for 4 hours for their visit. Normal arrival time is 10-10:30am when we will meet and greet you in our car park. Visits can finish at any time until the park closes at 5.00p.m.
Should you be running late, we will always try to adjust the day to make sure that you can complete all the activities you have planned for your particular visit but in the case of educational sessions this may not always be possible. We can however, where possible, tailor your start and finish time if it makes your coach cheaper, e.g. starting at 9.30 a.m.
Please contact [email protected] if this is something you would like to speak to us about.
We have a car park with some free parking for coaches. Coach drivers receive a free hot drink at the Wild Café through the main entrance. Coach parking spaces are limited and must be booked in advance. There is no coach parking available on weekends and during school holidays, but coaches are welcome to drop off and pick up when required.
On arrival if your key contact person could make themselves known at reception then one of our team will come out to meet and greet you in our car park. We ask if you are running late that you phone ahead on 01386 833083 and let us know so we can reorganise our plans for you.
