Turney Family Farms Partnership

This year, we're celebrating 10 years since we transformed our family business from dairy farm into a family friendly destination for visitors and locals alike. From the start, our ethos has been to create 'maximum enjoyment with minimum impact on the environment' and this has been true from the construction of our glamping safari tents in 2012 to the Aqua Park enjoyed by so many today. We've never had a grand plan, we've just wanted to grow organically and to create a unique and welcoming place for everyone to enjoy the farm as we did; the fresh air, stunning views and space to explore - whilst trying to keep everything rustic and in keeping; no gadgets or gizmos ... just people powered fun! Today, there is something for everyone to enjoy at Tapnell and whether you're visiting for the day or staying over, we wish you a very happy holiday and lots of people powered fun!
