What an amazing place. We have come from the Isle of Wight and our children absolutely loved it. Brilliant value for money and the staff are lovely and friendly. Was also pleased to hear they keep the lambs when they are older too ��

What a fabulous place! Such a fun day too. I contacted about bringing our granddaughter there for her birthday and asked if you could do anything special and you arranged for her to be first with the feeding bottle for the lambs, thank you so much it made a special day for her and her brother. The children loved everything there - and so did we!

We have had season passes the last few years, as it ends up being such good value- my little boy and his friends love it! We have commented how nice it is that Farmer P put up new things this year too, and nothing ever looks run down. Definitely be getting season passes again next year!

Was our first time coming to farmer palmers and I have to say I was very impressed, lots of varieties for the children to do, my boys really enjoyed themselves, their favourite parts was the pony and tractor ride. Will most definitely be coming back again soon.

Visited today with my two girls aged 2.5 and 9 - we only left because you closed !! From the lovely lady who greeted us at the reception to all the staff today and I particular the lad on the Guinea pig handling it was a truly amazing day out and my girls loved every minute !! Didn’t check out your cafe as we brought a picnic but excellent facilities - drinking water fill ups readily available what excellent value for money well organised, clean , informative , an absolute gem of an attraction we will not hesitate to return !! Thanks to all !!

Visited on Saturday and my 2 year old loved it, the slides in the hay bales are a great idea and give a nice soft landing. The girls doing the pony rides were great and we loved the tractor/trailer ride (a bit of a shame you have to pay extra for these though). Fed lambs and goats. So much More to do.

Really great day out very clean through out,friendly staff lots to do,food is very good quality,price to get in is really great we will be going back again :)

Loved all the improvements you have made for this season and I was very pleasantly surprised to be approached whilst breastfeeding my 6mo yesterday to be asked if I would like a glass of water by one of your staff. Please pass on my thanks to the young lad in the cow costume!-very cheery and so nice to be made to feel comfortable BF. Well done FP!

Love this place We have had annual passes for 2 years now & will probably continue to get one for quite a few years � my 3 year old boy just loves it, so much to do & even on cold rainy days there’s still so much to entertain him, his favourite has to be the tractor area and even more now they have added a new ramp, shed, tunnel, staff are always so friendly & they are always doing lots of bits updating the park, highly recommend for all family’s! Xx

Just back from a lovely week in Dorset, our first holiday as a family of three. We stayed at Parkdean Sandford and were recommended this Farmer Palmers by them. Cannot speak highly enough of this place! So much to see and do. You can really make an entire day out of it! Seriously good value for money! Would highly recommend to anyone staying in the area or visiting Dorset in general! If we are ever back down that way again it would be the first attraction we revisit!

I love farmer Palmer's, my kids were very entertained from the woodland walk to play park, I love all the animals and they are so well looked after, I would love to work here x

I came here Friday with my son for the first time who’s 18months with friends. We loved it

That much we’re going to use our 1/2 price and come back Monday with Nanny. Well worth the money. There’s plenty to do there’s lots of space and the staff are really friendly and enjoy what they do. We’re see you again Monday �

Great place! I highly recommend to go there � it's a good fun for kids and adults. We had a great day and my little girls loved the place � Thank you very much xxx

Great farm, staff were really helpful and trying hard to make it a great day out. Highlight for us was the deer tractor. Two pound extra per head but well worth it. Children hand feeding deer was very special. Debbie was great with the kids all day, informative, safe and facilitating lots of animal interactions. Will definitely be back on our next holiday here

Grandparents enjoy Farmer Palmer's Farm Park as much as the grandchildren! A great place to teach youngsters to have fun whilst learning. Well done to all the team, it is clear that you all love being there - an amazing place!

First time here and was impressed with how clean and tidy it was and how nice the farm is for families to enjoy a lovely day out highly reccomend and will be returning one day again soon.

Came to Farmer Palmers whilst on holiday in Dorset at nearby Sandford holiday park.

With so many different activities to do and things to see, we easily spent the majority of the day here.

My two sons, aged 6 and 3, loved it! They particularly loved the pony rides!

Great value for money.

Thanks for a great day!

Another fantastic day at Farmer Ps with my little one. We've been visiting the park for 4 years now and today was our first visit to the deer safari ( :O ) Wow, what a fabulous experience, I can't believe it took us so long. My daughter just loved the whole experience and it was fantastic value for money. She loved being so close to the deer and was mesmerised by the whole thing. Fab day topped off by Zena finding our lost hats (we left with the Guinea Pigs) and pointing out where the drinking water was. I don't doubt we will continue to visit for many more years. Staff are cracking!

All credit to the lovely front of house staff who came to my rescue this morning. Having been at the farm for 30 mins with my two children, I realised that I’d left both my phone and wallet at home and had no money to buy lunch for them (or to go on a tractor trailer ride). I was dreading having to turn around and go home to get lunch and the meltdowns that would ensue from the children, but your staff handed me a £20 note, wished us a lovely day and just asked that we paid it back on our next visit (which of course we will). Such a kind gesture it was so appreciated and meant we could stay several hours longer. Thank you again.
