AI summary of 10 reviews
Travellers consistently praise the private one-hour tour experience, highlighting the guides' knowledge, warmth and attentiveness to visitors' preferences, alongside the variety of animals available to interact with, including alpacas, ponies, goats, sheep, bunnies and guinea pigs. The tour is noted as relaxed and personal, with guides tailoring activities to what visitors most want to see and showing patience, particularly with young children. The farm facilities, including the oak tree playground and enclosures, are well maintained and the animals appear well cared for. The main caveat raised is that the private tour option is notably preferable to the standard experience, with several reviewers explicitly recommending it as worthwhile, suggesting the public tour may be more crowded or less personalised.
How we collect and publish reviews
Where they come from. Our reviews are gathered from independent review sites and from guests who share feedback with us directly after their trip. They come from people who have actually travelled on the tour. Some longer trips are made up of shorter tours we also sell, run back to back — where a review was written about one of those legs, the review says so.
Why some are edited. Many of our guests travel in their second or third language. Where a review is hard to read, we lightly edit spelling, grammar and punctuation, or paraphrase a sentence for clarity. We never change the rating, the meaning or the sentiment, and we never write a review on a guest's behalf.
Reading the originals. Reviews sourced from public review sites appear there in their original form, and can be read in full at their original source at any time.
Great facilities and friendly staff, and our guide was patient and kind with our toddler. We went on a public holiday and the private one hour tour for our family of three was reasonably priced.
We arrived a little late and the café team upgraded us to a private tour. We held bunnies and chickens, walked the alpacas and Samson the mini horse, sat on the donkey, fed the goats and sheep, cuddled guinea pigs and had a quick pony ride, plus a tractor ride and the beautiful oak tree playground.
A fantastic farm day out, and I recommend the private tour. Leonie gave us private access to feed and pat the animals and plenty of information, with an easy, uncrowded walk around the farm.
We went for my nephew's third birthday and did the private one hour tour, which felt relaxed and personal for our group. Georgia was friendly, knowledgeable and great with the kids, who loved getting close to the animals.
We booked a private tour with Sara and it was amazing. She was fantastic with our son, very informative about the animals and had a lovely, warm way of showing us around.
We've done a private tour hosted by Jesse twice and both visits were fantastic. Our child loves this place and keeps asking to come back.
