PRE-BOOKING ESSENTIAL. BOOKING LINE MOSTLY OPEN, BUT ALWAYS 1-2 pm AND 7-9 pm: 07514 396431. NO TEXTS PLEASE. Boydells Dairy Farm is a small working farm, run by the Threadgold family consisting of Roy and Cherry, with son Kiley now in charge. The farm is open to the public and specialises in sheep milking. Set in the beautiful North Essex countryside only an hour's drive from central London, it provides a fun-packed and educational visit for children and adults alike. Most of the usual farm animals are to be found here, but, unlike other open farms, we give you a guided tour with lots of hands-on stuff. Try your hand at milking a cow, feeding hens, riding a donkey cart or outstaring a llama. But the chief part of your visit will be the sheep milking which takes place in a modern "rapid exit" parlour, milking batches of18 ewes at a time.

Following the recent announcements from the Government we are pleased to announce that Colchester Zoo will be re-opening on Thursday 18th June but health and safety at the forefront. After many long months of being closed to the public and with no regular income it is vitally important that we open again soon for the zoo to survive and continue the important work of caring for our animals. The majority of Colchester Zoo is open-air, over 60 acres with wide pathways and open areas. We hope that this will be an ideal location for those who would like to venture outside and reconnect with nature but within a safe environment. Tickets must be booked online for a timed slot.
