Dash, leap, weave and tumble - welcome to the Big Bale Play!
High Lodge Farm is transforming our huge grass field into the UK’s biggest straw bale playground for 9 days only during May half-term!
With more than 250 giant bales to explore, it’s pure outdoor adventure. No screens, no flashing lights, just fresh air, freedom, and proper childhood fun. These are the days memories are made of!
The main bale maze is perfect for children aged 5–14, while little ones can enjoy a dedicated under-5s area with smaller bales and a covered sandpit.
There’s plenty more to keep the whole family entertained including giant garden games, barrel train rides (extra cost), barista coffee, sourdough toasties, Oxfordshire burgers and hot dogs, delicious cakes and lots of ice cream.
Stay all day!
