Educational and Group Visits

Visits for schools and other educational groups.

The Countryside Restoration Trust
aims to encourage childrens’ love of wildlife and farm life and to give them opportunities to enjoy the natural world and have close encounters with animals both large and small.


Do you belong to a club, society or group of people who enjoy visiting interesting places?  . . If so, you might like to visit Mayfields Farm. We are happy for groups to visit for a day, half a day, or evening (summer only). We will arrange a programme suited to your interests based on your requests. 

Just a few of the things we can offer include; guided farm walks, meeting the animals, working sheepdog displays, craft demonstrations and refreshments.
