Monk Park Farm is an award-winning, family-friendly farm attraction in Bagby, near Thirsk, North Yorkshire. Set across 84 acres of countryside, it offers visitors a full day of animal encounters, play and seasonal activities. Guests can meet a wide variety of farm and exotic animals, including alpacas, goats, pigs, sheep, llamas, Highland cattle, wallabies and rabbits. Hands-on activities include small-animal experiences, guinea pig fishing and, when available, seasonal favourites such as piglet snuggling and feeding lambs and goat kids.

Families can also explore Little Thirsk, the farm’s role-play village, enjoy outdoor play areas, rides and other attractions, or book a private animal experience for behind-the-scenes time with selected animals. A programme of seasonal events takes place throughout the year, with activities and dates varying by season. The Food Court serves food, drinks and treats, and tickets, gift vouchers and school bookings are available. Visitors can stay next door at the Little Farmers Lodge, with access to the park included for the duration of their stay.
