Reviews
"Great urban farm with opportunities to feed animals. Nursery has some smaller animals to play with (like goats and cows) but not a lot else going on at the farm. Nice place to feel like you’re out of metro Melbourne when you still aren’t far from it."
"I recently visited Chesterfield Farm with my family and had a wonderful time. The farm was well-maintained and had a wide variety of animals that we were able to see up close. The staff was friendly and informative, providing us with interesting facts about the animals and answering all of our questions. The farm also had a playground and a picnic area, which was great for the kids. They also had a small shop where we were able to buy fresh eggs and other products from the farm. The highlight of our visit was the animal feeding time. We got to feed the sheep, cows, alpacas and other animals which was really fun. Overall, we had a great experience at Chesterfield Farm. It's a perfect place for families with young children to visit and learn about farm life. I highly recommend this farm to anyone looking for a fun, educational day out."
"Two of us came to Chesterfield Farm on a Saturday. We arrived at around midday. We had pre-purchased the tickets as advised on their website, so the check-in process was very efficient. First, we went to pet the small farm animals including lambs, rabbits, Guinea pigs, calf and dogs. Unfortunately you are not allowed to feed or pick up these animals, but you can still look at them and pat them. After that, we watched the sheepdog demonstration at 1pm where they showed the dog rounding up sheep. That was really interesting, as I’d only ever seen this on TV. Then we toured the rest of Chesterfield Farm, and got to see various farm animals including ostriches, camels, kangaroos, fellow deer, red deer, ducks, pigs, peacocks, goats and more. As we walked through this section of the farm, we hand-fed the animals with the animal feed purchased at the front entrance. We had a very fun time, and I would highly recommend visiting this farm. It is suitable for all ages. I am a young adult and I loved it. But I think kids will love it just as much!"
"Excellent morning spent. Perfect for toddlers, plenty of animals to see, areas close together & more shade than I expect. Amenities are fine, shop & takeaway food as expect, minimal but ok. I suggest parking in shade, buy 2 packs of feed & pack a lunch if kids won't eat nuggets & chips! Covid-19 friendly & plenty of room to move around without bumping into people."
