New Years on the Farm
Welcoming in the New Year
Come to North Hayne Farm for a New year celebration for all the family. With tastefully decorated cottages, lit courtyard and tree, our farm provides the perfect backdrop for your holiday plans no matter how you want to celebrate.
Welly Wanging at the farm for some New Years Eve fun and laughter
For something a little bit different why not join us here at the farm for a New Year getaway. In addition to the usual twice daily animal feeds and very popular donkey rides, fill your week with outdoor trails, our popular activity workshops and our own special bit of fun in the form of our "Welly Wanging" competition. With each cottage hurling their own welly in return for a prize (locally sourced and produced!... of course) this is a New Years Eve for ALL the family to enjoy.
Relaxing in your own hot tub under the stars with your glass of Champagne has also surely got to be one of the best ways to see in a New Year?
Come midnight we always like to welcome in the New Year with a very traditional family conga around the Christmas tree, we are always particularly grateful to be joined by anyone that has stayed up too and wants to join in the fun, so feel free to come on down to the courtyard, its always more fun to look silly with friends!
Finally on New Years day, why not explore our quiet country lanes, go hill walking over Exmoor or on one of our stunning North Devon beaches or simply take a walk to the local pub (1.5 miles) complete with roaring fire, to help burn off those Christmas mince pies! Tempted yet?
Here's what you can get up to!
Alongside our usual on-farm activities, including animal feeding, hands-on experiences, and exploring the farm, we’ve also added some special touches to make your New Year break even more memorable.

Welly Wanging

Nothing clears the head like a little welly wanging on a fine fresh winters day.
Happy New Year

As the clock strikes midnight you are all invited (if you're still celebrating) to join us for a customary conga around the Christmas tree.
What better way to welcome in the New Year!
Time for You, Too!
When little ones are napping or tucked up in bed early, it’s the perfect chance to unwind. Treat yourself to a soothing massage in our on-site treatment room, enjoy a peaceful stroll around the farm, or simply relax in your private hot tub under the stars. This is your time to recharge while the kids dream away.
