Cherry Tree Farm, Methwold are very hands-on and our approach to your experiences are unique and personal. We now offer individual family tours ranging from 1 to 8 people. (9 or more are accepted but you will need 2 tour guides to ensure everyone is safe, all this means is that the cost will be for 2 tour guides, not 1. You will be able to get a unique hands-on experience with most of the animals on the farm. You can pick and choose what animals you want to spend time with but the flow is on a one-way system so you will always start at A and finish at B, this is to ensure everyone is socially distanced, safe and the animals are not overcrowded. If you think you or someone in your group is frightened of a certain animal, just kindly ask your tour guide to skip that enclosure. Your happiness and enjoyment of the farm are all that matters.
Animal feed is available in reception at 50p a cup and you can select from PONY, GOAT, LLAMA and VEG CUPS. All the other animals have feed all the time so they wouldn't possibly eat extra so we don't sell it for that reason. Your tour guides are trained and know the animals personally so you can ask questions and learn from them. Great for home schooling families. All the staff are volunteers at CTF but their training is second to none and their awareness of dangers is exemplary. Our staff are polite and friendly and have tip jars in reception (so if you think they did a great job, you are more than welcome to tip them).
The tours all have to go out and finish on time to allow the volunteers their breaks in between tours, if you are late this is not a problem but your tour will still have to finish on time unless we are quiet that day. We always suggest people arrive 15 minutes early to avoid this. You can choose from 30, 45 or 60-minute tours. Normally with a 60-minute tour, you get to see all the animals. you will be asked what animals you would like to see if, for example, you have chosen a 30-minute tour. Listen to your tour guide moving along your tour, your time is precious playing with the animals we know but they will advise you to move to the next to avoid missing out.
