Part of the Farm Day Nurseries group, their Day Nursery & Pre-School embraces nature-based play. Children from 6 weeks old up to 5 years of age have access to a number of stimulating environments, freshly prepared healthy meals and structured early years learning with an emphasis on play. The team follow the ethos of doing what is best for the children and they truly are at the heart of everything the team do at Adventure Farm Day Nursery. From the beautiful child-based environment to an 'in the moment' planning approach, children and families really do come first!

Children will also benefit from the unique outdoor learning opportunities of being based on a farm, where they will have daily supervised visits across to the National Forest Adventure Farm, where they will be able to meet all of the animals.

My daughter comes home full of stories about her day. She loves all the staff at kids camp and in pre-school and will talk about them often. It's a great place where the children get to experience such a unique set of activities different to the average setting.

Amazing staff!
Always friendly and will do anything to cater for your child’s need. All activities in the nursery are made from natural resources. My daughter suffers with anxiety and the staff always go above and beyond to make her feel at ease.

My little boy loves going to nursery. He is only 8 months old and I feel so happy that he is in the best of hands on a daily basis. The staff are so lovely and they know him so well already. They are there to go for if in need advice about him and they always know what to say. The nursery itself is
beautiful and there are so many great activities for him to do.

I can’t express how incredible my daughter's journey has been here. Every room she has been through have done absolutely amazing and she has lovely bonds with all staff. Her key person now goes above and beyond every single day to ensure her needs are met and the communication is amazing.
The farm
experiences she gets are lovely and she always comes home telling myself and her daddy about her day and the animals!

Since my child has started at Adventure Farm Day Nursery & Pre-School the staff really took their time with our daughter as she had never been away from me. She settled in well in toddlers and the staff were lovely. She has now gone into preschool where she has made strong connections with staff and
peers and has really come out of herself and grown in confidence. She loves going to the farm and always wants to go to nursery even on the weekend. Can't thank the staff enough they are all amazing.

My daughter has been attending the Adventure Farm Day Nursery since March 2022, the nursery have always been very supportive and accommodating to her needs. She is currently in the toddler room but has been at the nursery since the baby room, each room has fantastic qualities and such caring and compassionate
staff, she has bonds with all of the staff and talks about them at home so much! Couldn’t ask for a better nursery experience.

Our daughter has been going to nursery since September, and after a couple of crying days, she has gone from strength to strength.
She squeals with excitement when she sees the sign for nursery and then runs into the nursery.
Her confidence is amazing because of all the wonderful staff.
They make
sure she is safe and secure in everything she does, they keep us as parents informed, and we will get phone calls about any problems.
They always make sure she has a fantastic learning experience, and you can tell she does because she is so tired when she comes home.
I can't praise the support and effort from everyone enough.
We love all the stay and plays, and it is great to feel involved with the nursery. The Mother's Day event was amazing, and my mum loved being invited as well. We can't wait for more.
Thank you for everything you are doing and are going to do in the future; it was the best decision we made when looking for a nursery for our daughter. We will spread the word to other parents.

My son has been going to the nursery for just over 12 months now (he joined at 11 months old) and he has grown into the most amazing little boy - and the staff have all played their part. When he first started in Babies room I needed a little extra reassurance, as a new parent, and the staff were so
accommodating. If he had a cry on drop-off they would always tell me it was ok to call whenever I wanted to check in on him and they did genuinely mean it. The setting itself is warm and friendly and the toys and facilities they have are wonderful. The main selling point to me was the farm when, in fact now, it's probably the team! My son is super social and is a fun, caring little boy. His development has been amazing to watch and also to see his relationship with the team as well as his nursery friends. It's a true family feel.

I can't thank the fantastic team at Adventure farm Day Nursery & Pre-school enough. It's coming up to a year since I returned to work after having my little girl and her journey at the farm has been amazing. I am reassured daily by the love, care and support my daughter receives. I love the fact she
gets to visit the farm nearly every day she attends. The focus on exploration and outdoor play was one of the deciding factors for us when choosing this nursery and my daughter absolutely gets this exposure we wanted. From the beginning they have met my daughter's needs in regard to her allergies - I know she is safe and in good hands. Fundamentally, it's the team who make it for me and I know my daughter is loved, challenged developmentally, nurtured and looked out for every single day. I am so glad I chose Adventure Farm.

I've been impressed with the nursery staff, two members of staff in particular. On many occasions, I have been greeted by new or unknown staff members who haven't introduced themselves to me. However, all the staff have shown a lovely affection for my child, offering her cuddles when she's been particularly
clingy. When it comes to top-class care of a child I would highly recommend Adventure Farm.

Enrolling our daughter at the Adventure Farm Day Nursery & Pre-School has been the best decision we, as a family, have made. We have seen exponential development in her physical and social attributes since she started around three months ago. Our daughter is besotted by all the staff in the babies'
room but has a really special connection with the room leader who is extremely attentive and caring to all the children. Trusting the care of your child with someone else for the first time is hard and daunting but the Adventure Farm Day Nursery has been amazing in keeping us updated on our daughter's progress and the antics she gets up to playing with all the other children!

My son has only attended the nursery for the last two months but the team at the Adventure Farm Day Nursery & Pre-School have taken the time to help my son to settle in, allowing him to bring a few things from home as comfort has helped to make a difference and extra touches like printing photos of
him and his sister.

My son has attended Adventure Farm Day Nursery & Pre-School since they opened in September and has grown in confidence ever since. He loves every day as they are full of new experiences. He has daily visits to the farm and loves this because of the many interesting things he gets up to! From feeding
the animals to exploring the many attractions. The menu is so varied, and he tries so many new meals every day. We are always updated on the app of what he is up to, and his interests are always planned around activities. The relationship my child has with his key person is amazing, and feedback is always so personal.

My daughter joined Adventure Farm Day Nursery in May in the baby room, to say I was nervous was an understatement. All my worries were put aside when I met the room leader, her skills really are second to none. She had constant communication with parents, always updating us on what she has been doing
throughout the day and has always been 100% honest with us. I cannot shout from the rooftops how lucky this nursery is the have a room leader like her. Never did I think my daughter at 9 months old would be reaching out of my arms to get to someone else. She simply adores her.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.963)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.963) out of 10 for Adventure Farm Day Nursery & Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.963 for Adventure Farm Day Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (312 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.963

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Adventure Farm Day Nursery & Pre-School is based on 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 96 number of registered child places is 19.2, which has been reached with 27 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
