Beautiful surroundings and the cafe & coffee was lovely, excellent service. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Meeting the horses was lovely and the guide was very informative about the horses and their progress. So lovely to see the horses happy and cared for in a beautiful, relaxing place. A great deal of work to rehabilitate the horses and it shows as the horses were happy and most welcoming of a head rub and a cuddle. We made a donation as we just adore horses and support their happy new life ahead · via Google [PonyMomma](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/115470565641164549939/reviews) ★★★★★ Brilliant visit. Lovely walks around the site and you visit the horses, ponies and donkeys. The meet a pony session was very informative, and provided many a cuddle and head rub. The bistro is a great place for a coffee and cake, or larger meal if you want it. Very clean, and picturesqu, with happy staff and happier equines. · via Google [Laura Anne](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/105962627250582357254/reviews) ★★★★★ A wonderful place to visit; inspirational staff, beautiful scenery and the most gorgeous ponies and horses. Highly recommend the tour. We visited as a family all of us loved the experience :) Also the cafe is a hidden gem and well worth adding in to the trip! · via Google [Mark](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/114695750646666900701/reviews) ★★★★★ I think the visitor center is quite new so if you are going because of the horses you might be a little disappointed, we only saw a couple and those were from a distance dispite doing both the red and blue walks. That said, it's got a wonderful cafe with some spectacular walks down to the river and through the forest and the staff were all very friendly. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x488432090554f489:0xf8d8efc72df6c9d2!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ## At a glance **Address** A93, Aboyne, AB34 5BJ [Get directions](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=57.0752570%2C-2.7295950) **Category** Farm Parks **Guest rating** 4.7 / 5 (210 reviews) **Suitable for** All Ages **Setting** Indoor & outdoor **Destination** Aboyne [More attractions in Aboyne](https://staycation.co.uk/aboyne/attractions) ★ 4.7 (210 reviews) [Visit official website](https://www.worldhorsewelfare.org/Farm/Belwade-Farm?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=attraction) [013398 85398](tel:01339885398) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Aboyne **Postcode** AB34 5BJ **Plus Code** 9C9V37GC+45 [Directions ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/dir//''/data=!4m7!4m6!1m1!4e2!1m2!1m1!1s0x488432090554f489:0xf8d8efc72df6c9d2!3e0?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [More photos on Google ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x488432090554f489:0xf8d8efc72df6c9d2!10e5?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) [Write a review ↗](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m3!3m2!1s0x488432090554f489:0xf8d8efc72df6c9d2!12e1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) ### 🏨 Places to stay near Aboyne Hotels, B&Bs and self-catering on Booking.com, with live prices.
