Farmyard and Adventure Playground at Chatsworth HouseFarmyard and Adventure Playground at Chatsworth House

Farmyard and Adventure Playground  Farmyard and Adventure Playground

A working farmyard with cows, pigs, goats, sheep, horses, chickens and fish. There are usually young animals to see as well. There is a milking demonstration at 3.30 pm every afternoon and there are daily animal handling sessions.
The woodland adventure playground is fun for all the family. Older children enjoy the trampoline, rope slide and secret passage, and explore the towers, spiral slides and ropewalks. Younger children love the creative sand and water play areas.
The farmyard has a wide variety of family entertainment, a craft cottage where families can make decorations, cards and hats, and young people can get involved in a Nativity with real animals.
