Tatton Park - Home Farm

The perfect family day out the farm provides a picture of rural life
where time has ‘stood still’ since the 1930s and traditional breeds
are still resident. The farm is set in a corner of the park known as
Tatton Dale and was, in its heyday, at the heart of the vast Egerton
estates, feeding family, guests and staff at the mansion, as well as
servicing the park and the outlying properties.Many new activities have recently been added to a
visit to the Farm including a children’s adventure
area featuring a fantastic woodland play trail and
den-building zone, two mazes and story telling areas.
Most activities take place under cover making the
Farm an ideal place to visit even on a rainy day.
Feed the goats and hens, meet the
pigs and donkeys and visit Aunt Mary’s 1930s cottage. The covered
play barn has tractor and trailer rides and there are usually new
arrivals to say hello to! You can milk our wooden cow in the Farm's
shippon and at certain times of the year our Jersey cow
is milked there. The Farm's very own pottery is open
most days and farming and kids activities take place
throughout the year. During high season the farm’s
steam engine will be running a couple of times a week.
