About Occombe Farm

Rolling green fields stretch across this working farm just outside Paignton, where families can get properly hands-on with farm life. Occombe Farm runs genuine farming experiences - think feeding sheep, collecting eggs, and watching milking demonstrations rather than sanitised petting zoo encounters. The farm trail winds through different paddocks where you'll meet Highland cattle, rare breed pigs, and a flock of sheep that seem genuinely pleased to see visitors.

Kids absolutely love the tractor rides that bump along muddy tracks between fields, and there's usually a chance to help with feeding time if you time it right. The farm shop stocks proper local produce - their own lamb, fresh vegetables, and excellent Devon cream.

Working farms like this can be muddy and unpredictable, so come prepared for wellies and hand-washing. It's brilliant for families who want something more authentic than theme parks, though teenagers might find it a bit tame. Allow a good half-day to make the most of it.

For those staying at nearby holiday parks like Hoburne Devon Bay or Waterside Holiday Park, it's a lovely contrast to beach days around Torquay. The farm sits well within reach of several glamping spots too, including Whitehill Country Park, making it an easy addition to a South Devon break.
