Easter Holidays - Family Day Out

School is out, spring has arrived, and the farm is buzzing with new life. If you are looking for a fun, fresh-air filled day out for the whole family this Easter break, look no further than Hockey’s Farm.

Meet the Animals - There is no better time to visit the farm than springtime. Come and say hello to our resident family- including our rare breed British Lop pigs, the friendly donkeys, and our curious alpacas. It’s a great way for children to disconnect from screens and reconnect with nature.

The Great Hockey’s Easter Trail- Explore the farm with our special Easter activity! Pick up a trail sheet from the shop, find the clues hidden around the animal paddocks. A perfect mini-adventure for little explorers.

Refuel in The Farmyard Café - After all that fresh air, warm up in the café. We are serving a special Easter holiday menu featuring:

  • Kids’ Lunch Boxes: Healthy, tasty, and packed with local goodness.

  • Luxury Hot Chocolates: The ultimate treat for chilly spring mornings.

  • Homemade Cakes: Including our seasonal Easter specials.

Treats to Take Home Before you leave, a visit to the Farm Shop is a must. From artisan chocolate eggs and hot cross buns to fresh local produce for your evening meal, we have everything you need to continue the Easter celebrations at home.

Dates: Open daily throughout the Easter Holidays

Admission: Free to visit the animals | £2 for Easter Trail

Top Tip for Parents: The Farmyard Café is very popular during the school holidays. To avoid disappointment, we recommend booking a table online before you set off.
