Pink Pig Farm, located just outside Scunthorpe in North Lincolnshire, is a lively and family-friendly attraction that combines the charm of a working farm with the fun of a children’s adventure park. Set in the Lincolnshire countryside, the farm offers a wholesome day out for families, with a strong focus on outdoor play, animal encounters, and locally sourced food. It’s a place where children can run free, get muddy, and learn about farm life in a safe and engaging environment.
The farm features a wide range of activities, including animal barns where visitors can meet pigs, goats, sheep, and other friendly farm animals. There are also imaginative play areas such as giant sandpits, jumping pillows, and seasonal foam parties. Indoors, the play barn provides a weatherproof space for younger children to explore, while the “Scones and Scales” sessions offer a relaxed social setting for parents and babies. The farm regularly hosts themed events, from circus workshops to festive celebrations, ensuring there’s always something new to enjoy.
Food is a big part of the Pink Pig experience. The award-winning Greedy Pig Café serves homemade meals and treats made with locally sourced ingredients, while the farm shop offers a selection of hand-reared meats, baked goods, and artisan products. Visitors can enjoy everything from hearty breakfasts to indulgent hot chocolates and flapjacks, all in a cosy, countryside setting.
In addition to its day-to-day attractions, Pink Pig Farm also offers event spaces like the newly refurbished Garden Room and the more intimate Wildflower Room. These venues are available for private hire, making the farm a unique location for birthday parties, weddings, and corporate events. With free parking, accessible facilities, and a welcoming atmosphere, it’s a destination that appeals to both locals and tourists looking for a fun and meaningful day out.
