We were so wrong, they totally loved it, as did the adults in the group! There's so much to do, from meeting & feeding the animals (handwashing facilities were really good), watching demonstrations (goat racing was my particular fave), and the outdoor & indoor play areas were fab. We spent so long going on the slide options inside (adults are allowed on too !), we were having so much fun we ended up spending most of the day. Thanks to all the staff for the warm welcome and for running such a great place 🐐 · via Google [Kureshi](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/108568799806753183421/reviews) ★★★★★ Walby Farm in Carlisle is one of those rare places that effortlessly blends charm, fun, and a genuine countryside experience.
