Oliver loves a farm and I do too, so i am always looking for a new one to explore.  This time we decided to visit Fishers Farm park which is about an hours drive from us.  This was back in early March and it was pretty chilly and very wet, but we had our coats and wellies so not a problem! What child doesn't love a muddy puddle! We went on a midweek afternoon with my dad and it was literally empty, we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves!

 Its a lovely farm with so much to do.  Animal petting and feeding which is always fun for little ones.  Oliver loved being able to get in with the rabbits.  We fed the goats, there were baby piglets and mummy even fed a cow an orange.  Lots of the usual farm animals to see.  Seeing new born rabbits in a basket was possibly the cutest thing iv ever seen.  Spring is always a lovely time to visit a farm with all the new additions being born.  
 

 

 Big bonus for us - trampolines! They have two large bouncy pillows (one for little kids and one for older ones) and also large trampolines with nets around them.  It was so quiet that me, Oliver and grandad had a trampoline each at one point! So much fun!
 
There is a big castle play area to explore with slides and sand pit areas - some with little diggers and buckets and spades.  There was actually a whole other play area I think may have been a pirate ship which we didn't even get to as we didn't have time.  (We should have gone early!)

 

In a wooded area on a little trail you can find lots of mini log cabins to climb in and play inside.  A small track set aside for mini tractor ride-ons was a hit as soon as we walked in.  There are also a few rides, because it was off peak these were only running at certain times throughout the day but I assume in summer these would be going constantly.  There was a carousel type ride, teacups and a train that goes round and round.  There was no extra charge for these rides (not sure if that's the case in summer).
 
 
Then a good old tractor ride in a trailer around the fields and past the stables to see the horses, cows and any animals that were out grazing.  


We weren't prepared with a packed lunch so we headed in to buy food. There was a small cafe/kiosk selling crisps and sandwiches but I think because it was so quiet there wasn't much choice so we decided to head into the restaurant - especially as it had cosy fires and it had just started chucking it down! The restaurant food was delicious! They had a great menu similar to a pub, lots of choice and it was good quality.  The service was great, staff seemed friendly and genuinely pleased to see us (i guess as it was so quiet!) 

 Little mention for the toilets, we had not long done potty training so I was carrying a potty around all day but I found I didn't need it as all the toilets had little toilet seats which was a nice touch.  

 Price wise March is considered low season so it was £10.75 per person, at the moment its mid season (midweek) which is £13.75 each and in the summer holidays it will be £16.75 per person.  Personally i think the price is reasonable for the amount of entertainment there.  It is somewhere you could easily spend the whole day and not get bored.  There is also a large indoor soft play which we didn't even see, so if that's your bag there's that option too!

 Overall we had a brilliant afternoon, I wished wed gone earlier and had the whole day there! Would definitely recommend this farm park, we will be going back!

Bocketts Farm Park - Leatherhead

Image
 Bocketts Farm Park Young Street Fetcham Leatherhead KT22 9BS We went to Bocketts farm in January for the second time.  The first time I was mostly carrying Oliver in a sling so he was only about 1 and wasn't quite old enough to explore all that was on offer.  This time he was big enough and brave enough to do it all! This post is about a visit pre Covid so I can't comment on it more recently but according to the website its pretty much all open again now with distancing rules.   When we went in Jan I had forgotten how much is there! It's in Leatherhead, under half hours drive from Coulsdon and a nice drive through country lanes if you go through Headley and avoid the motorway.  As you walk in to get your ticket there is a huge ride on section with various mini tractors, cars and bikes.  Then a bunch of trampolines and a tractor you can sit in and pretend to drive.  All hits with Oliver and his friend straight away.  There is a little cafe in...

Diggerland - Kent

 Diggerland Medway Valley Leisure Park Roman Way Strood Kent  ME2 2NU Our first visit to Diggerland this week and it was pretty exciting!  You need to pre-book tickets but there is no time slot so you can arrive any time after 10am.  We got there about 10.45am and had no problems parking near the entrance, however there was a 20 minute queue to get in.  Tickets cost £19.95 each (kids aswell although under 90cm tall is free) but it is a theme park so expect it to be a little pricey.  The only extras were the dodgems which you had to purchase tokens for £1 a ride and there were a few coin operated diggers and cars which were also £1.  The indoor play areas are still closed due to Covid. Baring in mind it is summer holidays the queues weren't terrible, when there were several of the same machines it was obviously quicker.  They also had to clean everything down after every go which took some time.  The biggest diggers I think there were only 4, ...

Carshalton Ponds & Park

Carshalton Ponds & Park I never realised how close this was to me or actually what was there before.  Id driven past the pond but hadn't thought of it as a place to visit.  We explored it properly yesterday for the first time and it was a great little morning out, being only 15 minutes drive from me in Coulsdon.   We took bread and fed the ducks (controversial I know) and monkey nuts for the squirrels. For such a  small wooded area there are loads of squirrels ready to take them straight from you, which Oliver loves now he is brave enough!     We had a wander by the pond and then headed to the large playground.  It had so much variety of apparatus and it is perfect for Oliver's age (approaching 4).  Including plenty of swings, several climbing frames with different slides, a small zip wire, things to spin on, wobble about, a climbing wall and a sand pit.        I found some toilets clos...
