We really enjoyed seeing all the animals and feeding them. The sheep and dog show in particular was a highlight - informative and fun!
Thank you!
Such a fun place! Lovely animals (including some precious lambs, as its lambing season right now), and amazing staff who obviously also love their animals. Be sure to go along on a feeding run, and feed the animals yourself. And plan to grab lunch and coffee at the warm, inviting cafe as well. We'll be back, for sure.
I have already changed my booking to 30 April 2022. Why do I still receive the notice and this? Apparently your system is not updated accordingly. I have contacted Jen Lorigan in Sheepworld on 22 February 2022. Regards Su/Yin Tsai
Hi there, I am not quite sure what you are asking? Your booking has been transferred as requested to the 30/4 and we look forward to seeing you then. Sheepworld Contact [email protected] if you have any further queries.
Good for kids
Thank you Suresh. Please visit again on a day when we have a Dog & Sheep Show, as that is a lot more interesting for adults. We are planning to get to a daily show as soon as we can. Regards. Sheepworld.

Lovely place
The place itself is quite small and lives off the cuteness of its inhabitants, several sheep, pigs, alpaka, donkeys and similar animals. Please don't mistake this place for a zoo, its more of a educational farm with enclosed shop and shows. The show itself was really entertaining, we were shown two sheepdogs with different approaches to their task, some interactive shepherding games and even a live shearing of one sheep before the kids got to bottle-feed some lambs. Visiting the farm and seeing the show should not take more than about 3 hours, if you can make time for it and are in the area have a look!
