#CountryKids at White Post Farm, Nottinghamshire

Country Kids from Coombe Mill Family Farm Holidays Cornwall


As part of our weekend away with Single With Kids we had a day trip to White Post Farm. Now I wasn't sure that my 11 year old son would be too old for a farm trip but it turned out there was plenty to keep him entertained. I booked our tickets the day before online to save money and then our group all headed over to the farm. It was a pretty damp and cold day but that didn't dampen the children's enthusiasm as we looked at the birds of prey near the entrance:


My son spotted the crazy golf and we easily found one other family who wanted to play. As it was all included in the entrance its so much easier! Some of the holes were tricky to say the least but I was glad to be the overall victor... 

The children then piled into the vehicles to try them out. All the way around the farm there were plenty of friendly animals wanting to say hello (and be fed!):

#CountryKids at Coombe Mill

Country Kids from Coombe Mill Family Farm Holidays Cornwall


We couldn't come to the county of Cornwall without visiting the home of Country Kids at Coombe Mill. Fiona invited us to join the feed run so we had a mad dash along country lanes to get there just about in time for the 9 AM start. We had to follow behind the trailer as it went across the river to the animal enclosures:


The first stop was to the birds and my daughter was lucky to find one of the fresh hen eggs that had been laid on the farm:




We used to have a few chickens ourselves so she loved being able to hand feed the ones on the farm:
