Children's
Birthday parties

Where imaginations go wild and children can run free!

A unique birthday

With animals to see, ride on tractors, play areas, woodland and plenty of outdoor space for letting off steam, Cogges Manor Farm is a fantastic choice of venue for children’s birthday parties!

Our party offer includes your own reserved space set up ready for you with tables, seating and bunting decoration.

Your own private Meet the Animals Session will be supervised by Cogges staff: these sessions allow children to touch and pet some of our animals up close.

A choice of one of three activities, fully run and supervised by Cogges staff or volunteers (some activities subject to change):

  • Children’s Craft Activity: Decorate your own crowns and magic wands. All materials provided plus a selection of other fun dressing up clothes and accessories to wear.
  • Woodland Scavenger Hunt: Tailored to the age group of children visiting to enjoy the fantastic outdoor space we have here at Cogges.
  • Puppet Show: Allow us to perform just for you! Your birthday party group can enjoy an exclusive interactive puppet show performance featuring farmyard animal puppets and lots of fun. We use our own handmade puppet show.
Meet the animals

A private 'Meet the Animals' session makes for an extra special birthday! A member of the Cogges Animal Care team will introduce the children to some of our smaller animals and supervise handling at midday for 15-45 minutes.
