Glebe Farm is a free-to-enter family attraction set in the village of Astbury, near Congleton in south Cheshire. The farm is home to a wonderful variety of animals including alpacas, donkeys, ponies, goats and more, all kept in paddocks and pens around the site. Animal feed can be purchased on-site, and visitors are encouraged to buy only food available from the farm shop to protect the welfare of the animals.

Beyond the animals, the farm is home to a thriving community of independently owned shops and businesses housed in its traditional barns and outbuildings — from a butcher's and fishmonger's to a toy shop, gift studios and more. There is also a children's play area, and tractor rides are available at weekends and during the summer holidays.

Le Café serves hot drinks and food daily, and the main farm shop is well stocked with fresh local produce. The site is largely accessible, with ramps to shops that are not on flat ground, accessible toilet facilities and baby changing available through the café. Well-behaved dogs on leads are very welcome throughout most areas of the farm.
