This is a wonderful place. Tranquil and relaxing, but with lots of animals to meet, groom and feed. The tractor ride was fun, and there is lots to keep the kids entertained. Very good value for a full afternoon. A beautiful farm, we thought it was clean and cared for.

An absolute amazing place to visit, the children loved the animals and being able to feed them along with a tractor ride with learning lots and even being able to ride in the front with the farmer. Our family loved this day out

I randomly found this place on a Facebook suggestion and im so pleasantly suprised by how much me and my family enjoyed it. Its such a lovely place to go, full of animals you can say hello to and feed, play areas for the children, tractor rides with so much educational value and a lovely tearoom! You can go in with the donkeys to groom them, have a cuddle with a guinea pig, say hello to alpacas and walk along side the lambs and sheep! Getting to feed them too is wonderful The farm itself is beautiful but you can really tell the history in it and how much effort has been put in to keep it such a gorgeous place and the animals are so well cared for! I would definitely recommend for anyone to go a long and see for yourself. Its been a lovely afternoon!

Came across this day out on a family getaway to Devon. We all really enjoyed a good few hours here. Lots to see and do. Feeding animals, games shed, tea room and a lovely tractor ride tour around the farm. The farm ride was educational for the children and adults and you can see that the animals are well looked after. Highly recommended for families with younger children if in the area.
