Halls Bank Farm Reviews

Zoe Stubbs
28th July 2025
This is an amazing place to stay whether you want to relax as a couple or take the children. You can see the cows and pigs as well as the two ducks from the house, or even go close up to them. My boys loved watching the cows giving birth in the field as it was a fantastic experience for them. And the pool was warm and was given 2 hours a day to swim as well as watching the birds feed at the same time through the windows.Carole was really accommodating and anything we needed she was available on the end of the phone.Definitely be going back 5 star x

The pool was brilliant for the kids, allocated 2x 1 hr slots per day. There were 2 pigs, 2ducks and cows in the next field, again great for the small kids to visit. Very quiet and peaceful location but not too far from amenities.
