Ever fancied playing cow-pat bingo? Kids can have a crack at the game - which involves participants selecting a square section of a field and hoping the cow chooses to relieve herself in their quadrant to win - and also meet farmyard animals or try goat racing at an Animal Encounters event at Kingston Maurward in Dorchester, Dorset on Sunday 26 April. Dorset Coastal Cottages (0800 980 4070, dorsetcoastalcottages.com) offers a variety of accommodation in the area.
