A friend suggested we take our little ones (ages 2x 2yrs and one 5 year old) and I was pleasantly surprised.
We only touched the surface visiting the Farm, Bloody Hollow Adventure Playground and retail area so will be back for a longer visit but here is what
we thought...
Bloody Hollow Adventure Playground
The Bloody Hollow Adventure Playground is a fantastic play
area with castle, rope bridges, zip slide, swings and more. Probably not great
for little ones just learning to toddle but if you have a sturdy-on-their-feet
2+ year-old who enjoys climbing and running they will have a blast. The whole
area is fully enclosed but beware: there are very steep banks (which
actually adds to the whole experience- although I think castles were usually
built on hills!)
Hatfield Park Farm
Large farm with a variety of animals to feed. Freddie
especially loved the pigs as they made such a squealing noise when we walked
past them. There are sandpits dotted around with great little diggers, the kids
played there for ages! We were also lucky enough to see the lambs being fed.
The Stable Yard offers a variety of independent retailers: one is a lovely old fashioned toy shop, where Freddie spent his £1
with ease. You will also find the Coach House Restaurant here which offers a
nice selection of food and drink. There is currently a FREE HOT DRINK offer- just visit the Hatfield House website here and print off the voucher (offer
valid until 15th July). There are often free events for children here
too, we made Easter baskets, rabbits and chicks.
As I said we only touched the surface, there is so much more to explore and we will definitely be
back! Entrance to the Farm and Bloody Hollow costs £4.50
for adults and £2 for children 3+. Visit the website for full prices (Free
entry to Stable Yard).
