Family Pumpkin Picking | 3rd – 31st October 2026 – Book here
Walby Farm Park offers one of Cumbria’s most authentic pumpkin patch experiences, with acres of pumpkins grown on-site by Farmer Neil. This isn’t a display – it’s a proper working pumpkin patch with 12 varieties to choose from, thousands of pumpkins, and plenty of Instagram-worthy photo opportunities throughout.
Your day ticket includes full farm park access, on-site pumpkin carving (leave the mess behind!), s’mores by the fire pit, and a free pumpkin for every paying child. The farm’s Indoor Adventure Play Barn, Animal Barn with daily activities, and outdoor play areas make it a full day out for families.
