Set within 70 acres of rolling countryside a few miles north of Bolton, Smithills Open Farm is a family run business where nothing sits still. Not even our stick insects.
The farm itself is constantly evolving, with new animals coming to stay every week. We provide homes for everything from cows, pigs, goats, sheep, rabbits, llamas, owls, eagles, donkeys, ducks and deer. In fact, we have over 25 different types of residents. Some are more fury than others. But all are lovely. Even our Burmese pythons.
Smithills Open Farm has been in our family since the turn of the millennium. That’s the year 2000 to you an me. Before that we had another farm. A dairy farm that had lots of cows and produced lots of lovely milk. That one was not open to the public, though.
There is so much to do at Smithills Open Farm. We promise to keep you entertained during your day out. So much so that, like our animals, you won’t ever want to leave!
