Meet the Animals
BIG love and BIG cuddles await when you meet The Big Sheep farm animals. Get up close and personal with our friendly farm animals when you visit our petting farm! It’s a wonderful chance for children to be able to cuddle a puppy, meet a newborn lamb, see day old chicks, stroke a kid goat and more at our petting farm!
Did you know that The BIG Sheep was (and still is!) a working Devon farm, meaning our BIG Sheep animals are at the heart of everything we do. All of our animals love fuss and attention so we’ve opened up our farm track for you to RAMble around and say hello up close and personal to pet them.
Please be aware this is a working farm track and, as such, is uneven in places and unsuitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs. We do not allow dogs on site.
Food & Drink
BIG taste sensations happen when you visit our Café, Farm Shop and unique brewery! Scones with clotted cream, a classic afternoon British tea and a trip to a brewery…the perfect day out treats.
Real coffee, delicious freshly baked cakes and homemade, tasty, food awaits at The Barn Café. Discover the Devon delights with warm scones, clotted cream and jam (do you eat it the Devon or Cornwall way?) or dine in style with a classic afternoon tea.
Within the EWEtopia Indoor Playground is Bo Peep’s Café; selling a range of food, snacks, hot & cold drinks and Icecream.
