"A lovely little farm with some very friendly animals. Could be better at answering the phone, and those rare breeds sausages break my heart, but otherwise very sweet! I just can’t get enough of those Oxford down lambs! - Edit, just to clarify, I was being slightly tongue in cheek! I also understand that phone resourcing is another strain on resources that often aren't there. We loved the farm! Maddy (with a Y)"
"Loved it. Had so much fun! Cutest animals, you can feed and pet them, just buy little bucket of chopped veggies. And Aberdeen coastal trail and bike trail just right there."
"Facilities okay toilet, hand washing, play park, car park with overflow. lovely family run farm. Bring a picnic as no coffee shop. Good selection of animals that are friendly : horses, sheep, chickens, pigs."
"Great day out for young and not so young ones. Bargain too and pic nic friendly."
"It's sometimes hard to find good/fun activities for kids between the age of one and four years old. I can definitely recommend this place, as you can spend an entire morning or afternoon there and keep the kids well entertained. The staff is very friendly, and animals are great fun to look at and there is also the option of feeding the animals. There's a brand new big playground right in front of the farm you only have to bring some food and drinks yourself and you can also enjoy a nice picnic if the weather permits."
