Meet our farm animals down at the Walled Garden and learn all about their daily life as well as some interesting facts
This summer, the Walled Garden comes alive with the sights, sounds and snuffles of the Marlborough Mini Farm. From 21st July to 1st September, the orchard just beyond the garden wall (next to our Adventure Play) plays host to a charming collection of farm animals including our friendly Berkshire pigs, gloriously plumed Buff Orpington chickens, wonderfully shaggy Cotswold sheep and characterful English goats.
All of our breeds are recognised by the Rare Breeds Survival Trust and are Red List / Priority Breeds - this means that they are native livestock breeds which are considered at risk, and are being monitored for conservation. Marlborough Mini Farm creates the perfect opportunity to meet these animals, learn more about these breeds and discover what makes each one so special. Our animals absolutely love meeting their visitors. To keep them happy and healthy though, we just ask that you enjoy them with your eyes rather than your hands.
Please note: An Adventure Play ticket is not required to visit the animals.
