DATES

7 Oct - 5 Nov 2026

TIMES

11:00

A daily 11am session in the Animal Barn at Old Down Country Park where you can get up close to the animals.

Every day at 11am, Old Down Country Park runs an Animal Encounter session in their Animal Barn, giving visitors the chance to get up close to some of the animals that call the park home. The Barn houses farm animals such as pigs, cows and sheep, plus smaller creatures like bunnies and guinea pigs. This is included as part of a visit to the Country Park, which is open from 10am to 5pm, seven days a week. Animals do move around the park from time to time to give the paddocks a rest, so staff on site can point you in the right direction if anything has shifted around.
