Easter Trail at Lotmead Farm

Looking for a fun Easter activity for children aged 2-12? The Easter Trail at Lotmead is a lovely option for families wanting to spend some time outdoors over the school holidays.

Set just outside Swindon, Lotmead is well known locally for its pick-your-own fruit in the summer. During the Easter holidays, however, the farm park opens with a seasonal trail that’s designed for children of all ages, making it an ideal family outing whether you have toddlers or primary-school children.

The trail itself is spread around the farm and includes a series of challenges for children to complete as they explore. It’s aimed mainly at younger visitors (roughly ages 2–12), making it ideal for families with preschool and primary-school children.

Children follow the clues around the site and complete the activities before collecting a small treat at the end. This was a big highlight for our little explorers.

Activites range from competitive games, building, problem solving and more!

What makes the trail particularly nice is that it’s not overly structured. Families can move around at their own pace and mix the trail with everything else the farm park has to offer.

Plenty More to Do at Lotmead Farm

Once the trail is finished, there’s still lots to keep children entertained. The farm park includes a large outdoor play area with climbing frames, swings, and other adventure equipment that younger children love.

Animal lovers can also visit the small animal enclosure where you’ll find goats, pigs, alpacas, rabbits, guinea pigs and other farm favourites.

There’s plenty of space for children to run around, which makes it a great place to burn off some Easter-holiday energy.

Food and Facilities at Lotmead Farm
