Tapnell Farm

About Tapnell Farm

Set in beautiful countryside, surrounded by amazing views of the Island and the Solent, Tapnell Farm is an award-winning, all weather attraction – perfect for a family day out!

Formerly a dairy farm, Tapnell Farm is now one of the Island’s biggest tourist attractions, providing so much to see and do, with just as much activity indoors as out.

Children can run wild in our Straw Bale Adventure Barn, great for climbing and exploring, with stacked up bales and tunnels to run through and hide in.  They can race round the pedal go-kart track, shoot the hoops in the new basketball area, and bounce away on the trampolines. 

If it’s indoor soft play you’re after, then they can tackle the 3-storey soft play zone in our big Soft Play Barn, ride on the mini tractors and even visit the Farm Park’s very own beach!

Head outside and bounce away the day on our incredible jumping pillows!  These two giant inflatable beds of air are like a cross between a bouncy pillow and an outdoor trampoline. Plus, there are sledge slides, crazy golf, and a footy shoot out to keep them entertained.

Every day there’s the opportunity to join our keepers for ‘hands-on’ animal activities including paddock feeds, bugs & beasties, meerkat talks, wallaby feeding and more!

Also next door at Tapnell Farm, enjoy award-winning burgers at The Cow and experience the Island’s first outdoor Aqua Park, as well as the Island’s only Football Golf, and Archery and Axe Throwing and NEW for this summer a brand new Maize Maze and Sunflower Meadow! – Full details at www.tapnellfarm.com/play
