This 36-acre country park features a mix of woodland, grassland, and wetland habitats, with walking trails, a lake, and a variety of wildlife, including birds, fish, and insects. The park also includes a children's play area, picnic sites, and a café serving refreshments.
I've visited twice & both times never fail to amaze me. Beautiful area. Great for family meets. Dog friendly. Good open spaces for walking, picnics, & dog walks.
It was smaller than expected. Google Maps would have completely taken us the wrong way as when we got there and had followed sign posts it still showed as 5 minutes away. We had parked down a small side road and was limited spaces in the parks main car park. However once walking around the corner along the riverfront there was a massive car park. There was a big play area there for the kids. A big old barn you could look around, a few nice old cafe and ice cream stalls, Toilets and a few art shops.
The farm is so interesting. The Tithe Barn is fabulous and there is the Granary where a lovely selection of rural interior design is on display for sale.only 0.5 miles walk along the river from Timbrells yard. You can get to K and A canal behind the bran
Loved this place. It is just outside Bradford upon Avon. We had breakfast in B upon A then walked around the little town. There were signs to a river walk, which we took and this was Barton Farm Country Park. There was a children's playground there and an old tithe barn there, that use to be used to store the produce that was grown in the fields around it. There were lots of boards around the barn pointing out what went on in the barn when it was in use. We then went to a craft area, little shops with local crafts being made, which you could purchase. Then we reached the river, which was lovely. The path was wide and firm to walk on and not muddy. We noticed, if we looked up the bank on our left, we could see narrow boats and people walking up there. We wondered if we would join it if we kept walking, and a little further on we did, so we didn't have to go back the way we came. The path by the canal was a bit muddy, so you needed wellies or walking boot really, but we managed in ordinary shoes, by jumping over some of the more muddy areas. There were lots of narrow boats, people out walking and also people fishing. It was a wonderful walk up to a lock at the end and there was a bridge. The walk back to the town wasn't far at all and we enjoyed it so much we will go back again.
A wonderful setting with access to the Tithe barn, cafes, artists workshops, and Granary. Easy access for paddling in the Avon, it's a fab place for a picnic and a walk. Well worth a visit.
Such a lovely area on the fringes of Bradford on Avon. Lovely shops, coffee shop, canal one side, river the other. Plenty of wide open spaces. Be wary of the road running through, vehicles tend to speed along. Can be dangerous if you're unaware.
