β€œIt’s an amazing little adventure. All the animals were super friendly and seemed genuinely happy. It’s quiet during weekdays and the animals might be extra happy for the treats. It has a charming rustic and natural vibe, very different from a typical zoo. There was one goose that’s chasing us and yelling for food, quite funny. Will definitely be back if in the area. Prepare to spend an hour or two here. So many random little things to admire.”

β€œA very lovely place. There is a big variety of animals. They are well cared for and clearly loved. Everything is clean and very green. It is our favourite farm we have ever visited. There are many nice places to sit and relax, lots of green trees, and many shady areas. There are also many swings for children. The ticket price is very reasonable. A very, very pleasant place. We really loved it.”

β€œGreat place for families! We went with 2 boy teenagers and they both ended up enjoying themselves spending about an hour and a half there. If you took younger kids they'll probably want to spend longer there and you can take some picnic lunch in with yous to enjoy the day more... Favorite animal ended up being the donkeys! So friendly!.. and lots of things for the kids to explore or climb πŸ˜„β€
