Spencer's Retreat Farm (part of the Langdale Trust)

Spencer's Retreat offers a fun, safe and understanding environment for children with special needs and their families. Spencer’s Retreat is a 6 acre farm with pigs, goats, sheep, horses and an alpaca. We have a natural play area and nest swing, wendy houses, sandpit, fairy garden and stable block with books, games, lego and small sensory soft play space. The retreat is available to visitors to book a session rather than it being open to the public meaning that it never gets busy and overwhelming. Interaction with animals is incredibly therapeutic and beneficial as it can lower anxiety, stress and depression. Book a session at Spencer's Retreat and you'll get: - No crowds, queuing, noise and a safe and secure space well away from main roads. - Exclusive Access to the farm and play areas for a family of up to 6 people. - 2 hour 30 Minute private sessions - Access to the stables indoor space - Play in the natural play area, feed the animals, jump on the trampoline, play in the playhouses or on the ride on vehicles.
