Animals looked really well looked after, I thought there would have many been rabbits but the animals that where there were all lovely. A lot of pigs, like 3 sheds of pigs but it was nice
Cafe was nice, very busy!

- Gemma CookBarnsley, UK10 contributionsHow was it the first time I’ve been here? What a place? Our little toddler loved it. So many places to walk and explore. Even though the weather wasn’t on our side we still loved it. The cafe was great to start our morning with breakfast before we began our adventure. We will definitely be back. I’ve lived nearby since I was 9 years old and at 31 have only just visited.Written September 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
