Hall Hill Farm, County Durham
Bottle feeding at Hall Hill Farm is included with admission and usually takes place daily from the end of March to early summer. You can join the queue and take part at (usually timings are 12noon, 2pm and 4pm) at no additional cost. Find out more here.
Whitehouse Farm, Northumberland
The farm's Easter Extravaganza Event runs from 1-16 April this year and includes lots of baby animals including lambs, calves and kids, bottle feeding lambs and magic shows.
We used to do this every year when the kids were little and it's a full day out packed with activities. Highly recommended.
If you visit on 7-10 April you can also meet the Easter Bunny and take place in an Easter Egg Hunt around the farm. Find out more and book here.
The Easter Egg-Stravaganza at Adventure Valley takes place across the school holidays and includes a special undercover Easter Garden, Bunny Adventure Trail with Chocolate Treat, Meet & Greet the Easter Bunny plus the chance to meet and bottle feed baby goats and lots of furry friends.
Two brand new playgrounds (pictured) will also be open just in time for the holidays. Find out more and book here.
Jacksons at Jedburgh , Scottish Borders
Jacksons at Jedburgh is a lovely family-run farm in the Scottish Borders. They offer a range of animal experiences including Bottle Lamb Feeding and a special 'Lambing Experience' where you can meet and bottle feed lambs as well as taking a tour around the lambing fields and learn about what's happening (suitable for ages 6+).

Lambing live! 
Easter holiday farm stays are availability for Cedar Pod, Willow Pod & The Black Hut
Spring is in the air on our glamping site during Easter. The daffodils 
are popping out of the ground, the days are a little bit longer and the birds 
are in full song. By the start of April lambs will be in the fields, some sheep will be lambing outside too. If time permits we will show you around the lambing shed, and if there are lambs to bottle feed you can help out too!

If time permits we will show you around the lambing shed, and if there are lambs to bottle feed you can help out too! Sit back, watch the lambs potter by with a cuppa. Our activity pack and garden games will keep the children entertained for a while too.
Bring friends or family along and book both pods for a couple of nights away together.
