only info I could find :(

I will be going, as I used to live there.

Think we will go
sick of boring Sundays :thumbsup:

peter where abouts did you used to live? i like in whirlow too just down the rd from it

I used to live at Whirlow Hall Farm, we left in 1979 before it was turned into a Trust.

oh ok i wasnt even born then oh well lol

You can also find info there as well, and a bit about the place.

Whirlow Hall Farm (http://www.whirlowhallfarm.co.uk/)

I went there last week to see what the place looks like and it has changed quite alot.

I was thinking of going next week, but the only info I can find is the banner on the roundabout at Hunters Bar (which says children free!!! - how much is it for adults??????) and the tiniest bit on their website. (oh and the other link that i just read on here)
Anyone got anything else!?
Em

no i dont know but i dont have to pay anyways cause we got free tickets cause we live in the area which is cool hehe

Adults £3.50
Concessions £2.50
Car Parking £1
Children are FREE

it starts at 10.00am and finishes at 4.00pm

EEEkkk!!! car parking fee as well as entrance! I'm a VERY poor student at the mo (only for 4 more weeks woohoo!!!) so i think that much might rule it out for me.
Thanks for the price info tho Peter :)

ye but if you park on eccesaal rd south u wont have to pay or come park outside my house hehe

lol ooo now there's an offer :)
I've never been up to Whirlow farm so not sure how far away it is from Eccy road, but i guess it is walkable :)
Thankyou!!!

yes it is will atke u bout 5mins

Ecclesall Road is a long road, Whirlow is towards Dore, its quite a walk, but then dpends which part of ecclesall rd you live at

erm eccessal rd south caries on right up to whirlow so blagh

i've been & comeback.
very good day out indeed & not bad really for the money.

Yup we've been too..... didn't see you tho, willman!

Does anyone happen to know of a farmer who used to farm Whirlow and who died quite recently? I know he left a wife and son, and the son recently went to university.
