About Farmer Palmer's Farm Park
Farmer Palmer's Farm Park sits at Organford between Poole and Wareham, a short drive from Bournemouth, and is one of Dorset's best-loved days out for young families. Purpose-built for children aged 0-8, it combines hands-on animal encounters with more than 20 indoor and outdoor attractions, so there is plenty to do whatever the weather. Little ones can meet and feed cows, pigs, ducks and guinea pigs, join daily animal-handling sessions and enjoy tractor rides around the farm. When energy needs burning off there is indoor soft play, bouncy castles, a sand playground, pedal tractors and an outdoor adventure play area, plus a seasonal Dinosaur Roar Trail. The Hen House Restaurant serves hot meals, snacks and children's options, and there are picnic areas for families bringing their own food. The park opens daily from 9:30am, with free parking for all visitors and accessible facilities throughout. Admission is charged, varying by season, and booking online in advance is recommended for the best prices and a guaranteed entry slot. Dogs are welcome at no extra charge, making it an easy outing for the whole family.
