Both adults guests and children fall in love with our friendly animals around the farm.

Our ponies Billy, Millie and Kelly are friendly, safe, happy ponies that have been with us for some time and are firm favourites with the children.
Our friendly donkeys, Shrek and Barnaby, are waiting to meet you. They're docile, friendly and enjoy lots of affection.
If your children would like to enjoy a day with horses, we can recommend an enjoyable day at Thinking Horses. Prices are reasonable and it's very close to Smythen Farm holiday cottages.
We're often visited by a herd of deer, so keep your eyes peeled!
Bovril and Marmite have only just arrived. They are the black sheep of the family.
