FARM RULES
At Belmont Farm, your safety and enjoyment are our top priorities. Before embarking on your farm adventure, please take a few moments to familiarise yourself with our Farm Rules. These guidelines are designed to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all our visitors. Household pets are not allowed on the farm other than guide dogs.
During your visit, You might notice that our farm features double fencing around certain areas, and you may wonder why. These double barriers are an essential safety measure, aimed at keeping both our animals and our visitors safe. They create a clear boundary that prevents direct contact with our farm animals. While we understand the desire to get up close and personal with our friendly residents, these measures help ensure that both humans and animals can interact safely. The double fencing is not about us being difficult; we try to adhere to the latest government guidelines and rules & regulations.
By maintaining a respectful distance and not attempting to feed or touch them directly, you are contributing to their health and happiness. It's essential to remember that they are not just here for our enjoyment but also for their own well-being and comfort.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in adhering to these guidelines and safety measures. By working together, we can continue to offer a fantastic farm experience whilst ensuring the well-being of our animals and the visitors who come to enjoy their company.
