Take your time to meander through the surroundings and see if you can spot some special visitors, the owner of The Hay Barn has published a Children’s bedtime storybook called Fudge’s Evening Adventure, the idea from this story came after the Owners Daughter was treated at Alder Hey Childrens Hospital. The tale follows Fudge, a miniature dachshund, as she embarks on a quest to find a cozy place to rest her head for the night. Along the way, she encounters various animal friends on and around the family farm. A beautiful wooden sculpture trail to accompany the story can be enjoyed by guests, all proceeds from the book will go to Alder Hey Children's Charity, to thank them for their wonderful service, the book is able to be purchased directly from the owner, and so far over £13000 has been raised for this amazing charity. To add to the wonder there is also a carved animal bug hunt, and guests can watch the wildlife in comfort as wildlife cameras have been set up and can be viewed live in the property. The animal adventures don’t stop there, as guests will have the opportunity to meet the animals that live onsite, and with ample space and areas for children to play The Hay Barn really is a great choice for animal lovers and families alike. The surrounding area is great for walks, visiting the wonderful Chester Zoo, or take a trip to the nearby Cheshire Oaks Outlet Village for some excellent shopping.
