Animals

Daily at 11.30am & 4.30pm in the Animal Encounters Barn

Every day is different at Knockhatch Animal Encounters Barn and depending on the day we might have guinea pigs, snakes, hissing cockroaches, lizards or spiders for you to hold.

With you each step of the way will be our trained handler to ensure that you handle the animals safely and securely. You can wash your hands as many times as you like in the Animal Encounters Barn!

I held a snake, it wasn't slimy at all!

Eve, 11

What time are the Animal Encounters? Are the Animal Encounters extra? Should I wash my hands afterwards? Are the animals safe? As a home educator, are there group discounts on offer?
