Mead Open Farm
Overview
"Mead Open Farm was one of the first Open Farms in Bedfordshire. It spans 30 acres and is home to farmyard animals large and small. On your day out, you'll meet sheep, cows and pigs, as well as goats, rabbits and ponies. We also have a small flock of ducks on our duckpond and hens in our henhouse. We're also home to some more unusual large animals such as alpacas. We want families to have a full day of fun, entertainment and education when they visit us at Mead Open Farm."

Access guidance
- The attraction provides many seating opportunities indoors and outdoors, in the form of wooden or plastic picnic benches. For more information, please visit our website.
- The attraction is on flat land with the majority of our paths and activities being accessible by wheelchair. All of our animal activities, cafe and shop can be easily accessible by wheelchair; however, due to the physical nature of the Sky Trail and outdoor play areas these would likely be unsuitable. An accessible lift is provided to access our first floor which consists of a small set of private party rooms for those visitors who have booked a party with us. For more information, please visit our website.
- Free parking is available on site and we currently have 6 spaces available for blue badge holders. These spaces are within 20 metres of the main entrance and on a flat tarmac surface. The rest of the car park is on level concrete terrain with light gravel in some parts and is well lit at night.
- There is an accessible toilet located in the main shop and in the indoor play barn. These toilets are never locked and have no steps or ramps.
- We welcome trained assistance dogs. A water bowl can be made available on request.
- There is a discount for carers.
- Large print guides can be made available on request. Clear large font signage is made available all around the attraction with white or pink Kings Ransom font on a pink or blue background. We also have A2 and A3 information signs on all the pens of our animals and activities. For more information, please visit our website.
- Some of the special Halloween events do use flashing lights and have claustrophobic spaces. For more information, please visit our website.
