Easter in the Farmyard

Spend the Easter school holidays at Chatsworth and enjoy a fun family day out in the farmyard and playground. 

Activities are daily from 28 March to 14 April, unless noted.

Get crafty
10.30am-4pm

Get hands-on and creative with free spring-themed crafts in the Oak Barn.

Animal handling
11.30am, 2pm & 4pm

Little adventurers are invited to handle our smaller furry friends and learn more about them.

Animal feeding
All day

Meet our animals up close and feed them a snack while you're here. Pick up your animal feed bag on entry (a small charge for feed applies - add it to your order if you book online).

Tractor & trailer rides
2-14 April | Various times each day

Enjoy a tractor and trailer ride through the park (small charge applies).

Easter egg hunts
28 March to 1 April | Timed tickets available on arrival

Join the hunt for hidden chocolate eggs – maybe you'll find a golden egg and win a special prize!

Easter egg hunt tickets are included in the price of admission to the farmyard and playground for visits from 28 March to 1 April. Tickets for the egg hunt are available on a first-come, first-served basis and given out when you arrive at the entrance to the farmyard and playground.

Due to wet and muddy ground conditions in the farmyard fields, we strongly recommend you wear sturdy footwear for the Easter egg hunts.

Playground
From the farmyard, take the secret tunnel to the children's playground and enjoy our huge sand pit and water play (waterproofs and wellies recommended!). 

Important information: We're working on an exciting new redevelopment of the playground which will open in late spring. This means that part of the playground, including the zip wire and climbing frame, is not currently accessible. We're sorry for any disappointment, but promise it will be worth the wait.
