Good collection of farm animals, well maintained place and very friendly staffs my daughter loved her visit here.
Great place for family and children. Friendly staff and of course the cute animals!
If you want to see and feed some animals (goats, chickens etc), pet baby animals (lambs, calves etc) and maybe experience milking a cow, then I'm sure you'll love it. The overall atmosphere is that of a romanticised version of a farm and child friendly. They even have lizard enclosures, kangaroos and deer (sadly the latter two were hanging out in the shade when I was there, so I didn't want to disturb them). Overall the animals were friendlier than I was expecting
An excellent place to take children. It has many creatures great and small and they are mostly friendly and gentle with little kids.
The smaller ones inside the barn are great for little children and their older siblings. You can hold some of them not not feed them. That's only for the ones outside.
You'll need more than one bag of food to feed those animals, most of whom know the drill.
Unfortunately there were no horse rides this visit because we went during the week. But we still had fun. There are electric toy excavators and a small playground too.
Well worth the visit.

If you’re in South Australia, be sure to head out to the German influenced town of Hahndorf. Whilst in Hahndorf, we recommend visiting the Farm Barn with the family. It is a children’s farmyard and wildlife park but also a great place to play in the park and have a picnic.
Whilst in the park, you can hold, touch and feed most of the animals. In the first space are baby animals such as chicks, and lambs and you can go in their pens and hold them.
In the outdoor spaces, there’s animals to feed and oat such as cows, goats, deer, alpacas, ponies and more.
You can look in reptile cases and also see plenty of birds.
They also run a pretty corny led milking show and guests can have a go of milking the cow.
In addition, there’s plenty more for the kids to do such as ride a tractor, mini electric diggers in the sand pit (all at extra cost) and play in the park.
There’s lots to do and see, so you’ll probably find yourselves there are while so take food and settle in the bbq and picnic areas. It even caters to groups and birthday parties.
Staff were friendly and helpful. We did find it a bit pricy, especially when you pay extra for all the activities too. But it’s perfect for a fun day out for the kiddies.

Wonderful place to visit, especially for children.
Some of the facilities could use upgrades.
My granddaughters were upset because they wanted a pony ride which is only on weekends, public and school holidays. At the time we went many children were still on school holidays.
Interaction with the animals is great.

First time ever visiting this place, with hubby & our 2 boys. We won't be back, we both thought it was overrated.
