The Farm
At Newbridge Farm, we are dedicated to the conservation of traditional and rare breeds. Our animals enjoy spacious enclosures where they can roam freely and exhibit natural behaviours.
A Working Farm
Fun & Educational
Step into the heart of rural life at the farm at Newbridge House, a traditional working farm that offers a delightful, hands-on experience for visitors of all ages.
Home to a variety of friendly animals—including pigs, goats, cows, and chickens—the farm invites guests to learn about heritage breeds, sustainable farming practices, and daily life on an Irish farm. Whether you're feeding the animals, exploring the barns, or enjoying a peaceful stroll through the paddocks, the farm is a fun and educational escape that connects you with nature and Ireland’s agricultural roots.
Priorities
At the farm, we prioritise animal welfare and compassionate farming practices; visitors are welcome during designated hours, but please note that dogs are not permitted on the farm to ensure the safety and comfort of our animals.
