Review:
This gives a good 'feel' of what an estate farm would have been like 150 years ago. There is a huge thatched barn, as well as all kinds of livestock - mostly rare breeds. The dairy explains milk production, and of course you can feed the animals! There is a teachers information pack and an education office that can tailor activities to your specific needs and age level. A good place to explore the link between farming and food.
