Glenlothian Farm
About the Business
Welcome to Glenlothian Farm, a one-of-a-kind animal farm park located in the picturesque West Melton, Lawford Road. As an establishment, point of interest, and zoo, we offer a truly unique experience for visitors of all ages.
At Glenlothian Farm, you will have the opportunity to encounter over 20 rare breeds of animals, making it a haven for animal lovers. Our farm is home to Enderby Island rabbits, Canterbury Blue pigs, and Arapawa Island goats, among many others. As proud members of the Rare Breeds Society, we take pride in preserving these special breeds. Additionally, we are one of the few petting farms in New Zealand to house Bennetts Wallabies, which are a delight for both locals and tourists alike. And let's not forget about our beloved Shetland ponies and peacocks, which are sure to captivate your heart.
Our mission at Glenlothian Farm goes beyond providing a fun and interactive experience. We also strive to educate our visitors about our rare breeds and the importance of conserving them. Learn about the challenges faced by these animals and the efforts being made to protect them. Our knowledgeable staff is always ready to answer your questions and provide fascinating insights.
In addition to our animal encounters, we offer an onsite Craft Shop where you can find locally sourced products. From handmade crafts to delicious treats, you can take a piece of Glenlothian Farm home with you and support local artisans.
Nestled between Rolleston and West Melton, our farm retains a beautiful rural setting, allowing you to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Yet, we are conveniently located and easily accessible from the growing Selwyn area and Christchurch City. Whether you're a local looking for a day trip or a visitor exploring the wonders of New Zealand, Glenlothian Farm is a must-visit destination.
Come and join us at Glenlothian Farm, where you can connect with nature, learn about rare breeds, and create unforgettable memories with our furry and feathered friends. We can't wait to welcome you to our farm park and share the joy and wonder of our unique animal kingdom.
