Farm reopens with great offer

The farm is emerging from its winter hibernation all bright-eyed and bushy tailed and just in time for the half term holidays. It is offering all those visiting in the first three weeks, the chance to win the free annual pass for one adult and one child.

An annual season ticket, priced £75 for adults and £65 for children, is a popular choice for regular visitors as it allows multiple visits throughout the year.

The farm, on the A264 at Faygate, has an extensive calendar of special events lined up for 2013 including magic shows, visiting clowns, circus workshops and snake, reptile and creepy crawlies events – all of which are included in the entry price. First up will be children’s craft activities on February 21 and 22 and a visit by Charlie the Clown on March 29 and 30.

Open seven days a week, from 10am to 5.30pm, the farm prides itself on being the perfect place for a fun family day out, offering the opportunity for kids to run free in extensive, safe and imaginative play areas as well as meeting the animals and climbing the hay bales.

Holmbush Farm World is full of fun whatever the weather with plenty to see both inside and out, including indoor animal barns, tea barn, indoor toddler soft play area, sand pit, pedal tractor zone, spiders web climbing zones and the popular ‘bouncing pillows’ jumping zones.

Entrance to the farm is £27 for a family of four – two adults and two children. Reduced price entry after 3.30pm every day is also available so families can visit straight from school for some low-cost fun (£5 for adults and £4 for children).
