Guests are able to bring their own picnics to the farm which can be eaten on our outdoor picnic benches located throughout the. If you wish to leave a picnic in the car to collect at lunchtime, you can leave the park and re-enter as long as you have your hand stamped by a member of reception staff before you leave. BBQ are not permitted on site.

Due to the nature of our attraction we do not allow dogs onto the farm and in line with advice given to us by the RSPCA we have a zero tolerance policy on dogs being left in cars in our car park. If a dog is seen left in a car, a manager will be informed and action may be taken to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the dog. Guide dogs for the blind and assistance dogs for guests with additional needs are allowed on farm provided they are up to date with vaccinations and are wearing equipment that clearly shows they are assistance dogs.

We’re sorry but due to our licensing and biosecurity protocols, we’re not able to re-home pets or animals from the public. We also have a responsibility to adhere to our managed animal breeding programmes and have a set collection plan in place across our zoo and farm. We would advise researching appropriate animal rescue centres or animal hospitals for further advice on the safe rehoming of your pet/animal. We’re sorry we are unable to assist and hope you can be assured that the protocols surrounding the welfare of our own collection is our main priority.

We receive numerous requests for help from many worthy causes and unfortunately, we have to restrict donations (usually two admission tickets) to a limited number, and to those organisations located within our area. We are unable to accept charity requests via e-mail or social media and requests must be made in writing, including a stamped addressed envelope, with details of your event including the date it is being held to the following address:

Edel Carty
Castle Adventure Open Farm
Wardtown castle, Ballyshannon, Co Donegal

Successful applicants will usually receive their tickets in the post within 2-3 weeks, however if the event is being held considerably later than when the request is received, the request may be held and processed at a later date, closer to the date of the event, in order to prioritise upcoming fundraising events. We are unable to respond to unsuccessful requests and please note it is not our policy to supply complimentary tickets to guests based on individual personal circumstances.
