A charming, family-run animal farm experience in Kent
Come and visit the gorgeous little micro-pigs, miniature donkeys, teddy bear sheep, pygmy goats and alpacas at our unique petting farm in Kent. And what could be nicer than relaxing with tea and cake in the Mini Cafe afterwards while the children let off steam in the mini play area?
With none of the usual hustle and bustle, a two-hour visit provides a smaller, more relaxed, and personal experience for the young and young at heart. A charming, rustic, low tech, family-run experience, a million miles away from the commercialism of other days out.

Before you book, please consider that Huckleberry Woods is not a gravel pathway, chemical weed killer type of place – it’s wild and back to nature. We are located in a small private orchard and is charming and understated rather than large, slick and commercial. It’s not the sort of place where you rush between loads of animal enclosures, vending machines, and other distractions. With limits on the number of guests booked in at any one time, we offer an hour or two of peace and serenity. Time to relax. Time to ‘be’ not just ‘do’ and time to reconnect with nature.
You will be mingling with some free-ranging, inquisitive animals at our animal farm in Kent. Please consider whether this type of relaxing and up-close experience is your cup of tea before booking.
Please be aware that micro, mini and teacup pigs are just different names for the same type of piggy. Despite what the internet would like you to believe, they don’t stay as small as a piglet for their whole lives, this is a myth. A fully grown micro pig will reach around 6 stone. They’re wonderful animals and very small compared to other pigs but please don’t expect them to stay as tiny as a piglet for their whole lives.The experience is totally outside.
Sturdy, closed-toed footwear must be worn to enter as there are hooves and trotters in the orchard (please no flip-flops, sandals, Crocs or ballet pumps).
