More Details About This Activity

Longdown Activity Farm

Discover a heart-warming family day out at Longdown Activity Farm, a favorite destination in the New Forest for those who love getting close to nature. Unlike a traditional zoo, this farm offers an interactive experience where children and adults can join in with the daily chores of a working farm. Located in the picturesque village of Ashurst, it provides a safe and exciting environment for children to learn about animals and rural life.

Children will love the hands-on schedule, from bottle-feeding hungry calves and goats to holding tiny chicks and meeting the friendly donkeys. For those with energy to burn, the farm features extensive indoor and outdoor play areas, including a soft play barn, trampolines, and a popular tractor-and-trailer ride that tours the beautiful farm grounds. With a dedicated tea room serving local treats and plenty of picnic spots, Longdown Activity Farm is a perfect, stress-free day out for families staying at any of our Unrivalled Holiday Homes.
