Kent Life is a vibrant and fun destination with a host of attractions on its 28 acre site which offer a great day out. As a working farm Kent Life showcases and breeds traditional farm animals including sheep, pigs, horses, alpacas, rabbits, goats, ducks and chicken, you can also visit the Kent Owl Academy. Step back in time in the Vintage Village and explore what life would have been like in Kent in Victorian Times, during WWII and more recently, the 1950s. A visit wouldn’t be complete without exploring the last working coal-fired Oast House and various gardens. There’s also plenty for children including play areas, fun farm rides, pottery studio and more. Events and entertainment run all year, join in with animal feeding or grooming sessions, or check out a show in the Big Top. Seasonal events vary from the annual Hops ‘n’ Harvest Beer Festival, through to a Firework Spectacular and sensational Christmas event. Be sure to visit Dotty’s Tea Room, with great home-made cakes and a selection of hot and cold snacks. The indoor Play Barn offers a selection of lighter snacks, and the Ice Cream Hut and Pizza Garden are available on selected days during peak season.
