We have visited several times with the grandchildren who have re-named this "The Tractor Farm". The tractor ride to and from the farm is usually a highlight but we also enjoyed just walking. Looking forward to seeing the lambs soon. The calves are lovely too. Great picnic/play area next to the visitor centre. If the weather is not so good, we enjoy the indoor facilities too.
