Reviews
"An amazing place for the whole family to have fun, especially for the kids on weekends. The big rocking horse is quite scary for some adults because of its height but interesting for kids. There is a toy factory and souvenir area with lots of pretty items. I have bought some magnetic and finger puppets as they're so cute. The relatively airy cafe and bakery even sell ice cream and fairy floss. A simple zoo with gentle and friendly animals helps the kids get closer to nature. There is a small playground for children as well, with tables and chairs for everyone to rest in or a small picnic. The parking lot is quite spacious and airy. The toilet is not so bright but clean enough. Thanks!"
"We were here on Sunday (23/07/2023). This is a place where kids and adults both can have a good time. The Big Rocking Horse claims to be the world's biggest of the sort! You can pay $2.00 to climb to the top of the Big Rocking Horse and get a certificate!! There is a small wild life park with a $4.00 entrance fee! Animal food bags you can buy for $2.00 each. There are a small range of animals but still good enough for a quick visit and to take photos with the animals and feed them. Snowy the Goat can be cheeky! There are Peacocks, Ducks, Wallabies, Kangaroos, Australian Alpacas, Goats and Emu. Not to forget the talking parrot! When we went to the park it started to rain so we had to go to the warm and welcoming cafe! Great service! Chips and gravy were so yummy on a cold and rainy day and the coffees/ chai latte were so good. Perfect temperature! When the rain stopped they let us go back to the park using the same ticket! All the staff at the souvenir shop, park and the cafe were so helpful and friendly! Souvenir shop got lot of interesting hand crafted toys and board games and a variety of souvenirs. A must visit place on the way to Barossa!"
"We had a great time, the goats are very cheeky and cute, the kangaroos were great. We had a fun time looking at all the cool items in the shop and got some lunch in the cafe. Of course we climbed to the top. The kids had a great day out, and the new owners have made some wonderful improvements, we can't wait to have a chance to go back again."
"Rocking Horse is a truly wonderful picnic place to visit with kids. The presence of a love park adds an extra touch of charm to the surroundings. The calm ambiance creates a perfect atmosphere for relaxation. Additionally, having access to a toy factory adds excitement and entertainment for the children. The staff is incredibly friendly, ensuring a pleasant experience overall."
