Our family has farmed this land since 1928 and we love sharing our home and lifestyle with visitors from all over the world.

Come visit our petting Zoo and feed our farm animals. We provide food with every entry for you to hand feed the animals and you can bottle feed our pet lambs. Our farm animals are very friendly so you can get great pictures with each of them. Please book online as we only allow a limited number of people per day.
