It is a nice little place were you can pet animals. We were lucky to see some tiny piglets on our visit. The tractor ride was also very good fun. My son loved it.

Brilliant. Staff are very helpful. Whole family enjoyed the centre. Fun for all. Food hall can be noisy but is value for money. Picnic table and benches are available all over the place. Lots to do and see.

Our visit to the park was utterly dismal. The birds of prey are tied by their feet In a static position in their enclosure. The birds are completely prevented from moving around their enclosure at all and it was deeply upsetting to see. We were told 'this is for their own safety'

We also saw a member of staff enter the goat area and attempt to kick the goats out of the way.

As a person who is studying conservation and animal welfare I am truly disgusted at what I saw and I am shocked that they are allowed to get away with such practices.

I will never step foot in the place again.

A good day out for little ones to see farm animals and a nice butterfly poly. Not keen on the birds of prey bit could do with better explanation of conditions. Boot cleaning station not right and no one checking it's been done.

Excellent day out. Children loved stroking the animals and seeing the pigs. And some great play areas. A ride on a tractor truck went down well. And watching the eagles flying around you was fun. Only thing I would say is take a packed lunch as I didn't rate the restaurant/cafe very highly.

Great family place. Reasonable prices. Lovely animals you can get close to (piglets like eating shoe laces :-) ) Restaurant and picnic areas (including covered seating), indoor soft play and loads of outdoor play areas and places to run around. Fun trailer rides.

It is ok for kids but not adults. Also make sure to take wellies with you in the event that it could have rained. There is an area where you can touch animals, hand washing after is a must. Great few hours if you need to waste time.

Absolutely Amazing. Petting piglets to riding on a tractor trailer. Fun for all the family.

Rare Breeds Centre. Overall it was okay. Little bit disappointed regarding the butterfly room and bird room because they were closed. Other than that, pigs, mud, pigs, people. Also very nice children's barn with rabbits cows. Very interesting bird of prey show I was pleased with that. Staff friendly, all facilities clean and as it should be.
