💚 Thinking of visiting Walby Farm Park this summer?

When you're planning a family day out in Cumbria, it's always reassuring to hear from families who've already visited.

Here's what some of our recent visitors have had to say...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐

"Great day out for all the family. Lots to do and lots of extra activities that are all included in the price. All the staff were so friendly and helpful too. Would definitely go back!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Really amazing day out. Absolutely full itinerary of activities from animals to indoor fun and slides to outdoor play. Lovely clean environment and the food selection in the café was good."

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"We went today with our 1 year old daughter and we all absolutely loved it, the parents perhaps more so! Amazing set up and so much to do. Will definitely be back."

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Brilliant fun for kids and adults, good family day out. Staff are all really helpful and friendly and are a credit to the farm park. Animals are lovely and well looked after too."

Every review means the world to our team. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to share their experience. 💚
