Newbridge House and Farm
Home
Newbridge House and Farm is multi faceted and ever changing. From the gently undulating wild flower meadows of the Park to the stately grandeur of the Georgian Mansion, Newbridge Demesne truely is an experience for all ages and in all seasons. Families adore the 18th century working Farm and state of the art Adventure Playground, rounding off their visit with homemade treats in the Courtyard Tearooms. Enter the Farm via its 18th century cobbled courtyard and visit a vast array of animals ranging from the Shetland and Connemara ponies of the paddock, to the piglets, goats and baby chicks of the farmyard. We have over 100,000 visitors every ye ar and the Farm is very popular with families. We are one of the few working farms where children can see pigs, and many other animals, reared in an environment where they can move about freely and express normal patterns of behaviour. We are very committed to the highest standards of animal welfare and to the preservation of many Irish and indeed rare breeds.
Easter Excitement on the Farm! Saturday March 31st - Sunday April 15th
Visit us over the Easter holidays and participate in our Easter quiz (fun, competitive and educational) around the Farm and collect your Easter gift bag and participate in fun crafts all free when you pay entry to the Farm. We're still half the price of other attractions! As we will have a huge amount of visitors over Easter with the quiz people can pop up at any time between 10-5 each day and join in the fun. Scattering eggs around the farm when so busy would mean one child could get loads of eggs and others none at all. Also we are not allowed scatter food around a farm for hygiene reasons and anyway the goats would have great fun eating the eggs! Feedback from parents last year was that children get so many sweets at home that they preferred toys in the gift bags that they could play with after the eggs are eaten. Burn up some calories and burn off some sugar indused enegy with a visit to Newbridge!
Farm and House open 10am to 5 pm seven days a week. For tours of the House ask at desk when you arrive or book in advance. Last entry to the Farm 5pm, last tour of the House 4pm.
