Wonderful place to take a stroll, bring your kids, and your fur babies! Enjoy the highland cows, hogs, hens, wee furry creatures and much more. Off the main animal site there are a number of walking trails through surrounding forest. Pay for parking.

Our first time visiting but we will be back. The farm was better than we expected, we spent longer there than we'd planned. The playgrounds are aimed at slightly younger children but my 10 year old still enjoyed the zip line and taller slide. I thought the cafe was very reasonably priced compared to other cafes like it, with a decent vegan range. The cafe staff were very friendly and helpful. The toilet facilities near the cafe were clean with a separate accessible toilet. There is plenty of parking with overflow car parks but I would advise to get their early on busier weekends with better weather as it did still get quite busy on the overcast Sunday we visited. It's not very clear how to pay for parking but just drive to the exit and pay there, ANPR wasn't working when we visited so a council worker taking contactless parking fee payments instead.

Muiravonside Country Park is a super place for children. My grandchildren enjoyed visiting all the animal enclosures and reading the interesting facts displayed on the fences. There are ample toilets and hand washing facilities within the park. There is also a super play park which is ideal for them to let off steam. The cafe is also next to the play park where you can relax and enjoy a tasty sandwich,coffee, or ice creams or you can bring a picnic and sit at one of the many picnic tables (some are undercover in case of rain). Entrance is free. Parking charges are mandatory £2 for 90 minutes or £4 for all day. This is paid via a card payment machine when leaving.

Excellent little farm with some great walks. The animals look well fed and healthy, and the farm looks well maintained. Plenty of parking, but queues when leaving as the it takes a bit of time to pay at the barriers.
