Temple Newsam Home Farm

Home Farm is a working farm with some of its oldest buildings dating back to 1694, and is now one of the largest rare breed centres in Europe. Conservation is at the heart of our work, and we are passionate about local farming, its links to heritage, and how we can preserve the industry for future generations.

All animals at Home Farm are native to the UK and most are classed as rare breeds by the Rare Breed Survival Trust. As a rare breeds centre we help to ensure the continuation of some of the oldest breeds of farm animals in the country, and provide a living legacy people can enjoy now and in the future.

This year Temple Newsam Home Farm are delighted to be taking part in the Heritage Open Days for the first time. We will be opening our gates and providing free admission to visitors to the farm, who will be provided with trail sheets to highlight key buildings, machinery and animals that make our heritage working farm so special.

Normal farm admission applies to visitors wanting to use the play barn.

Additional information

The farm is set within a beautiful Capability Brown landscaped estate with a Walled Garden, ponds and extensive woodlands to explore, and a welcome cafe in the Stable Courtyard. You can also visit the magnificent Temple Newsam House (admission charges apply).
