This place was absolutely fantastic family day out, we visited out of season so there wasn't crowds of people. There was so much to do for children and adults alike. All the outdoor slides and activities were so much fun!!! The kids loved feeding the animals and the cafe was a lovely spot to grab lunch. Would highly recommend a visit if in the area but also worth making the trip if travelling from further afield.

Great park, plenty parking and fair priced. Kids absolutly shattered on the way home, just way i like it to be. Guess it was the outdoor activities and dragging the seats to the top of the slides repeatedly. Disappointed boat pond closed due to lack of water And quad bikes also closed. But my kids still had a blast without so 5*

Honestly, one of, if not, THE best open farm we have ever visited across Ireland and Scotland! Loads of space, amazing cafe, plenty of opportunities to get up close and personal with the animals and loads of activities for the kids. We loved it and highly recommend a visit for young and old!

Fantastic place for both kids and adults. Much cheaper than most similar places. Staff are very friendly and always seem to be happy to answer any questions. Amazing scenery, fun things to do, could easily spend the whole day here! Lots of slides, tobogins, play park, bouncy pillows, go carts, hay barn, trampolines and a little train ride which you can go on more than once. Fed lots of animals, there was a petting session with guinea pigs, rabbits and ferrets and then kids fed milk to the baby lambs. They loved it! Just be aware that some animals, (a goat in our case) are very clever, and whilst you feed another animal they grab the feed bag out of your hands 🤣 All very funny though. Oh and there's a lovely cafe and delicious ice cream to end your day off. Perfect day, thanks we will be back again when next in Scotland! 😁👍
