Cefn Mably Farm Park

Animals and play

The petting zoo is the heart of a visit, with chances to meet and feed the animals. When little legs need a change, there is a big indoor soft play barn and an outdoor play area, plus diggers to ride, a train and a crazy golf course. Some activities cost extra on top of entry. Feeding the animals tends to be the highlight for younger children, so it is worth starting there before the day gets busy.

Seasonal events

Autumn brings a pumpkin patch through October with an Autumn Barn, and from late November Santa visits take over. These are popular, so they are worth booking well ahead. Face painting is available in the Autumn Barn at extra cost during the pumpkin season.

Planning your day

The park says it suits toddlers through to older children. Advance online booking is recommended, especially at weekends and in school holidays. Parking is free, with an overflow car park on busy days. Soft play keeps things going in the rain, though some outdoor activities depend on the weather. There is a café on site. The park is on the north-eastern edge of the city, so most visitors arrive by car. Last admission is earlier on weekends and in school holidays, so aim to arrive in good time.
