There’s a little piece of the countryside to be found right in the heart of Bath, and Bath City Farm is a great day out for children and adults all year round. Home to a whole selection of friendly animals just waiting to meet new faces, the farm covers 37 acres and has been steadily expanding its collection of four-legged residents for the past 17 years.

If you fancy taking some time to get back to nature during a stay in accommodation in Bath we’d recommend popping by to see what’s going on down on the farm, and the animals are friendly and approachable. Please ensure that your little ones are supervised at all times, but they’re always welcome to approach the animals and watch them go about their business in their little patch of green.

The farm is also home to a cafe, a play area for toddlers, a nature trail and even a dedicated space for outdoor performances. The nature trail makes a popular way to explore the area a little more before you go, and it’s been created in conjunction with the Avon Wildlife Trust. The Guided Farm Trail takes around 40 minutes to walk.
