1 / 2Bullswool Farm Park
📍 Paeroa, Waikato
Heritage farm park with rare breed animals, walkthrough enclosures, an award-winning native bird reserve, and heritage farming museums. Relaxed staff, well-maintained grounds, and a cafe on-site. Families routinely stay longer than planned.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 – Highly Recommended! We had an amazing time at Bullswool Heritage Farm today. It was such a great experience and totally worth the ticket price. This is a perfect place for both small kids and adults to visit – a real must-see! There are lots of lovely, friendly animals that you can touch and feed. We bought an animal food bucket for just $5 and it was definitely worth it. The farm is very tidy, peaceful, and relaxing, and you really feel welcome there. The two lovely ladies working there were incredibly friendly and kind, which made our visit even better. We will definitely visit again. The only small issue is that the last 2 km of the road is a bit uneven, so you just need to drive slowly and carefully. Overall, 10/10 experience! Highly recommended!
🏆 Family Action Verdict

“Absolutely fantastic place! We took a 3 and a half year old and a 5 month old and spent all afternoon there after only expecting a 2 hour stint to break up a long drive. Such a great place and wonderful welcoming people. Really recommend!”

“It was great fun feeding the animals, hand feeding the duck and sheep were my favorite. The staff very very chill and laid back so the experience was relaxing. Not crowded when I visited.”
