1 / 2Glebe Farm
📍 Congleton, North West
Free family farm in Astbury with alpacas, highland cows, donkeys, ponies, goats, ducks, and a parrot in open paddocks. Independent shops in converted barns, a cafe, farm shop, butcher, sweet shop, and a children's play area all on site.
Great place. We came away with bottles of local ales, chutney, meat and cheese. There are several different shops including clothing and camping. We'll worth visiting for all that alone but on top of it all there's the animals which our granddaughter loved seeing and feeding with the £1 bags of feed. Then having a tractor trailer ride around the fields, a play in the play area and an ice cream. Plenty of parking. Something for everyone.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
A reliable free half-day out for families with young children who want to feed and observe farm animals without an admission charge. The combination of animals, independent shops, and weekend tractor rides keeps mixed groups engaged.

“Lovely little farm lots to see and do, couple of independent shops selling different things. Good range of animals and the park was great. Cafe was a little over priced and not much to choose from.”
