Stubby Pigs – Pig Walking

Stubby Pigs is where the joy of miniature piggy magic meets the serenity of rural walks. Nestled in Bilsthorpe, Nottinghamshire, Stubby Pigs offers an unforgettable pig walking experience, a chance for families, friends or solo visitors to spend quality time with their adorable herd of mini pigs in a peaceful, natural setting.

When you book a full piggy package, for just a £25 deposit, you’ll embark on a two‑hour adventure: meet and groom the pigs, learn all about their care, and hear their quirky stories. Whether you’re snapping photos or planting treats, there’s something deeply relaxing and endearing about spending time with these little guys. Kids can get up close, pet them, and discover just how intelligent and sociable they are. It’s part animal sanctuary, part interactive therapy session.

Every one of the Stubby Pigs has their own unique personality and backstory. Tiny Tim, for instance, came from a neglectful start but now thrives with his piggy family. Pumpkin, his partner, and their playful piglets (like Polly Pocket and Trousers) make regular appearances on their walks, and you might even spot their distinct breeds, like the curious Kunekune or speckled Juliana.

Safety and care are front and centre. They offer a gentle pace, with a guided health‑and‑safety briefing, and make sure everyone has the best possible experience, even young children and those with special access needs.
