Christmas at Matlock Farm Park

Animal lovers can be any age, so come along to award winning Matlock Farm Park to enjoy a day meeting, feeding and petting a whole range of friendly native and non-native animals! With super play areas for the children too, such as our indoor Rainforest playcentre the Enchanted Hamlet and UK's largest jumping pillow, there's always plenty to do. Join in with guided activities, pop in to our cosy cafe and wander at leisure to take in the glorious countryside. Our riding school is open all year round, and at weekends and school holidays, we offer short pony rides for the little ones too!
