How about a round on our 18-hole mini adventure golf course. Children will also love the funfair rides. Then take a seat in the restaurant café for delicious home-cooked food. There’s always time for retail therapy, so check out our shops and craft studios and Uncle Stuart’s Brewery’s new café bar. Wroxham Barns open daily, free entry and parking, but entry charge to Junior Farm (closed 25 and 26 December and 1 January « less

I cannot help but think 1 or 2 past reviews here are petty. Like with everything this place has a few negatives. On the whole it is free to get in, has a fabulous array of shops and also has a brilliant little zoo/pet area. Great place More

My family and I along with a large group of friends visited Wroxham Barns in April and loved it. There was something for each of us whose ages ranged from 3 years to 60+. The kids loved the farm, but i personally loved the shops. I started my Christmas shopping with the most amazing hand made gifts from Pats wooden... More

Review is for young children, the farm is great spotlessly clean (you know what I mean)' staff friendly, animals friendly - all bar the donkey!!!. Great interaction and indoor play barn ages 1-9ish I would suggest. If you don't go in there you have the free swings, small slide and then the paid for attrations which are fairly priced (tokens)'... More

We decided to pop in here on the last day of our holiday last September. We thought it would round off what had been a very enjoyable holiday. How wrong we were. It is one of those typical "tourist attractions" where there is little to do and everything is expensive. Fair enough it is free to enter. But there are... More

My sister and I visited Norfolk a couple of weeks ago. We were treating our parents to a well deserved weekend away. My parents are elderly and have very limited mobility. Unfortunately, my father is only able to walk very short distances so we decided to leave him to sit outside in the restaurant by the car park (only one... More

Please be assured that this is not how we set out to look after customers, as most reviewers will testify. But the fact is that it did happen to you and... More

Took my two grandchildren out for the day. Rides were reasonably priced so kids could have plenty of rides. Farm is nicely laid out and kids loved feeding the lambs and checking to see if chickens had laid an egg. Weather was not brilliant so we went into restuarant and had a delicious bowl of smoked haddock chowder. More

Heard a lot about this place - after fighting through traffic in Wroxham (Lorry stuck on bridge.!) - found the place quite easily (good signage) - but then the prospect dropped quickly when it was soon realised that expectations would not be met. At least 5 of the "units" were closed.! The remainder were not that much to write home... More

Dear Terry D There are a few questions which it would be helpful to ask (what time of year, what time of day) but to tackle the core issue, you came to Wroxham Barns and for you it was a disappointment. I would like to address the points you have raised but firstly would like to invite you back as... More
