What a fabulous wholesome place. A really lovely relaxed little farm with Alpacas, Shetland Ponies, Donkeys, Goats and lots of other wonderful fluffy friends. Lots to see and interact with, you can feed some of the animals with small pellets that can be bought for £1 as you come in. It is free to enter, donations are welcome. Cash and card stations available. A really nice little cafe on site too. We had a great time and will definately visit again.

A lovely quiet place. Well worth a visit with a good selection of cakes and drinks and even iced coffees. This is a proper working farm. Friendly customer service.

Volunteers are trying to keep the place going. It needs more help from locals from what I can see and more money. Irrigation sprinklers would benefit the animals in this hot summer. Ask the pig!

Super lovely little place! Popped in at the recommendation of my friend as it's free and it's definitely somewhere I would pay to go. We paid for a pot of animal feed which our 2 year old loved feeding to the animals. Will 100% be back soon.
