Great birthday party experience! We had such a lovely birthday party at Leahy’s Farm! A special thank you to Kerri (hope the name spelling is correct), who really made our day. She was so friendly, attentive and accommodating, even with our last-minute changes and requests. Everything went so smoothly, the kids had an amazing time, and most importantly, my birthday girl was so happy! 🥰 It’s definitely a day she’ll remember for a long time.

Our first time visiting with our 3year old & 8month old. It certainly won’t be our last. We made the trip up from Kerry so it was long with young kids. But once we got there everything was forgotten, there is so many activities, animals , playgrounds, food very reasonable pricing too. The homemade icecream is a must try. Story telling, sing song , pig racing! Most importantly the staff were all incredible, so helpful and friendly. You can tell it’s a lovely work envoirment, nothings too much of an ask. It’s summer time here so very busy but you can do everything at your own pace

We visited the santa experience last weekend and as always with Leahys it didn't disappoint. They have a really lovley santa and everyone you encounter in the experience to meeting santa is fab. It is a bit of a wait to see santa while you go through the experience beforehand, around 1 hour and then a wait to see santa at the end. Just something to be mindful of with very small/ autistic kids who may find the wait too long. So much to do besides the whole santa experience and fab food afterwards while the soft play was enjoyed.

This is one of my favourite places to spend a day with my kids of all the times. I keep returning there for different occasions. Leahys farm is extremely kids orientated! With loads places activities to choose from and do rest assured you will spend mostly full day there. Also, due to the season activities may vary. With entrance ticket you will get a free barrel ride, truck ride, go carting and play ground access. Also watch out for the petting time - that's very exiting activity for kids and their parents. Just for a small extra charge you can also make your own chocolate. There are 2 food zones - mane cafe with hot food and separate building for drinks and ice cream. You can bring your own prepared lunches too as there are loads of benches with tables located around the farm. There is a fantastic maze on the farm grounds that kids love to go through and ring the bell when completed. Check on their website for more additional activities throughout the season as they add Halloween, Christmas and Easter specials. Also I would recommend Leahys farm for birthday parties.
