Reviews
"Such a nice place. The people are very friendly who work here. The donkeys are adorable and well looked after. Quite a few of the donkeys make themselves known, they have a character! One even sounded like it was singing, whilst another was impatient for food and kicking the gate to get someone’s attention. Dog friendly too which was a bonus - one of our dogs was entranced by the animals and didn’t want to leave. There’s a little cafe inside too. Would defo reccomend."
"Very nice place to spending 2-3 hours with children. Donkeys are very adorable and friendly. Some horses, goats and other farm animals too. Soft and outside play areas on place."
"Lovely little family day out. The donkeys were super cute and my kids had lots of fun feeding them. The indoor play area was fun with the small tractor track to ride on. The outdoor play area was great fun too. It was a bonus that it wasn't too busy either, especially for the summer holidays. Would visit again."
"We visited one afternoon after swimming and our children (2 x age 8) loved it. They enjoyed spending time with the donkeys and their friends, then had snacks in the cafe and a roam around the soft-play! The set-up is lovely and feels very friendly and family-run rather than a highly polished commercial enterprise. The animals are well cared for and loved by the staff, and we hope to return soon."
"Absolutely beautiful,lots of donkeys & other animals staff very friendly & helpful. The cafe the food was yummy & a decent price. Nothing not to like about this place. Could do with more tables outside but thats it."
