Our Experience

It was a lovely experience to get close to those fascinating birds and hand feed them. The farm staff was super helpful and welcoming and gave us many insights and facts about the life of an ostrich. The kids could also run around, jump on a trampoline, test their skills on the slack line and watch the many tortoises waddle around and eat fresh vegetables. The play area could do with a little love as it was a bit run down. However, the restaurant and shop are top notch, spacious and filled with so many pretty things that it’s hard not to take anything home.
