Pets' Corner
About
Pets' Corner is a picturesque farm nestled in the heart of Harlow Town Park, offering a delightful mix of traditional farm‑yard animals such as rabbits, chickens, and ducks, alongside exotic barnyard companions including reindeer, llamas, and alpacas. The site also hosts a small aquarium featuring a colorful array of fish, reptiles and amphibians, giving visitors the chance to observe both terrestrial and aquatic wildlife up close. Open daily from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm (closed on Christmas and Boxing Day), the farm welcomes families, school groups and animal enthusiasts alike. While admission is free, a donation box sits at the entrance, encouraging guests to support the running costs and the care of the animals. Caring guidance from knowledgeable staff ensures a safe, educational experience for visitors of all ages. In addition to the farm‑yard exploration, Pets' Corner offers a range of animal‑experience sessions and educational courses via Land‑Based Studies in partnership with Writtle College, allowing participants to gain hands‑on experience with animal welfare tasks. Whether you are looking for a relaxed day out in the park, a learning opportunity for young students, or a fun family outing, Pets' Corner delivers a charming, interactive setting that celebrates the joy of animal companionship.
