Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We had a good afternoon with a wide age range of children from 1 - 15 years old. There were play areas for the younger children and fun of sheep racing for the older children. The food on the cafe is varied and pleasant to eat, with friendly service. I can see we will be cominf here for many years with our granddaughter. Thank you for a relaxed old fashioned fun day.

Visited with a 9yr old and 5 yr old. Plenty to keep both ages busy all day. Lovely play areas including trampolines, air pillow, sandpit, go carts etc. Would of liked to see few more animals.
My only complaint is not just about this place but most attractions in the uk. Why do places charge so much for adults to enter? There is nothing here for adults it is all child based, so why should we pay so much. I strongly feel that they should charge for children but adults should pay a minimal entry fee. Ive been to plenty of places abroad where adults either don't pay or they pay a few pound at most.

This looks quite limited when you arrive but there is plenty to keep the kids amused. I like the fact you only pay once then only pay for refreshments. We didn't make use of the cafe but they willingly obliged on several occasions to fill water bottles. Ice creams were a bit expensive and the whippy ran out halfway through our order. The activities include a few animals to feed, the animal handling, pony rides (cost involved), animals hiding in the woodland walk, den building in the woods, tractor/trailer ride with quiz, bouncy castle, inflatable slide, bouncing pillow, well stocked sand pit and the trampolines. Would recommend for under tens

What a shame this place has now closed as I am always looking for places in the area to take the grandchildren and this would have been ideal. Im not sure why they have closed but maybe they will be able to reopen in the not too distant future

Recently went out for the day at Manydown with my family and all enjoyed, plenty to do to keep my 5yr old and her 6yr old friend happy they very much enjoyed holding and feeding the animals.
I also took my 11yr son who was quite happy on the trampolines all day.
All are looking forward to returning and will be getting some season tickets for the family.
Only suggestion would be to have an area for older ones. My son enjoys the trampolines but would be tricky for him if it was a busy.
Recommend to families looking for a fun day out

Went today and the staff were amazing, so friendly. If we lived closer we would defiantly get a season ticket.
Little one was entertained for hours. Food was amazing and well priced.
Had a really good day.

We went to Many Down farm today with our 2 boys aged 3 & 5, they were very excited and were looking forward to feeding and holding the animals... We got round the farm quite quickly but the boys enjoyed playing in the sand pit and on the trampolines... I feel that the prices have gone up but the only thing you get extra is the sheep race. It was time for lunch and we ordered 2 hot dogs 2x Chips, I was astonished that the basic tiny sausage that was given in an over sized bun was £2.50?!?!? A small latte was £2.00 it was just too much money for what you got... A few years back you had the meat from the farm shop which was worth every penny but not the basic stuff being served now... However the kids really enjoyed them selves and we did spend all day there, the staff were all happy go lucky... There were two red haired boys supervising the bouncy slide and they were really good with the kids and smiley! It's just a shame that to even get in for a family of 4 it's £30 :-0 ... As I said my main issue has been the prices...we will be going again as it's on our door step and enjoyable but will most definitely have to take a pack lunch :-))

Thank you for your review - We are sorry that you felt the food prices were expensive but i can assure you that the food still comes from the Farm Shop and always will. Food prices have not been increased this year.
Ticket Prices are the same as last year we haven't increased them since Mach 2013 and we dont have plans to increase them again this year.
Thank you for your positive comments about spending the whole day, positive feedback on the quality of the staff and that you will be returning again. Overall you seem like you had a great day out!

We visited for the day whilst on holiday, this Is a great place and we all had a lovely day. My 2 children 4 and 1 didn't want to leave they loved it (much more than Peppa Pig world which we visited the previous day). We didn't take a picnic and had the BBQ food, this was really nice and not overpriced!
