We came for a family day out & we were not disappointed. We were the first ones in & as we entered we were met by two tiny goats. They ran right up to us & were the sweetest things. All the animals are cared for so well, which is lovely to see. The goats & the rabbits were are favourites. My little boy loved them ♥️ He also loves the tractor ride around the farm & the soft play area. I can't recommend Hardy's Farm enough for a great family day out.

We went for my granddaughter birthday this year and I have to say we absolutely loved it. It was perfect. The farm itself was beautifully presented, I got to chat with one of the staff who was so warm and caring not just towards the animals but visitors as well. He was so knowledgeable about tje animals and when they saw him coming the gave him such a lovely welcome. It was beautiful. We got to go on a tractor ride around the farm. (Loved it). We got to feed the animals too. There was an indoor play centre with a food outlet so the kids could get lost in there for hours which was also beautifully presented and very clean. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone with kids from 3 years to 10 years. Don't forget to buy some feed as you go into the farm, the animals will love you for it and come right up to you and take it from your hand. AMAZING 👏 Thank you for a great day.

Great little farm. Recently visited with my husband and son as he used to visit with his family as a child so wanted to see how it had changed. The car park is free and not huge but ideal. Babies go free which is great to know. You also get 10% off when using the skeg app. There are a variety of animals to see including sheep, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, highland cows etc. there are activities during the day such as alpaca feeding and a tractor ride around the farm. These are no additional cost and a good addition to the day. The staff are really friendly and helpful. I would however advise taking your own food as the cafe is rather pricey for what it is. Overall it was an enjoyable couple of hours and a great experience for my 8 month old and my husband
