⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a wonderful visit to Butts Farm Rare Breeds today. Sienna absolutely loved every minute of it! She got to lead and brush a donkey, bottle feed a lamb, and even hold a baby duck and a guinea pig. It was such a hands-on experience, and it was lovely that every child was given the opportunity to get involved rather than just watching from the sidelines. The lady and her daughter who run the farm were incredibly kind, patient and friendly. They clearly care so much about both the animals and making sure every visitor has a fantastic experience. Seeing how happy Sienna was made the day really special. We left with big smiles and lots of wonderful memories. We can’t wait to come back and would highly recommend a visit to anyone with children who love animals!
Amazing little hands on farm, a little hidden gem. From bottle feeding lambs and calfs to stroking pigs, this little place has it all if you are an animal lover. The owner and her dogs make the place as well, had such a good time there, could not recommend highly enough
Lovely farm for a morning interacting with lots of animals! Staff are very friendly. The animals look cared for and have lots of space to roam. We were able to feed the lambs and baby cows and spend time with Dobbie the kune kune pig
Great experience. The people working on the farm were very kind and helped assist the children to touch the animals. They also emphasized hand washing afterwards. When we went, there was an Easter egg hunt. There is a small cafe attached, which was pleasant. All in all a great morning out!
Came here with my Daughter, Son in Law and Granddaughter who is two over the Easter weekend. They live local and visit regularly. We helped feed baby lambs, we stroked a rabbit and guinea pig, and loved the pigs, piglets, horses and newborn foal. What a fabulous place. Julie the owner and her dedicated team go above and beyond to care for all her animals. What a wonderful few hours. We cannot wait to return.
