Yes all very good. I went with a family branch of mine who were master farriers and general horsey folk from the Ellastone Area
Frankly I initially groaned and was more looking forward to the 3 shoes on the way back! But no. I was converted. I can see the appeal
It is good to broaden the mind and have other interests
than sticking your head in a trough

Had an amazing time feeding the meerkats and holding the bearded dragons. The staff member that helped us was really nice and polite.

Food ok,farm park good for small children,play area doesn't really exist and is a small patch of sectioned off grass with a picnic table or 2 and some tatty old toys,our little ones got bored very quick. The children who have ponies there or go to the club can tend to take over the cafe and nothing is said to them. Im amazed at how rude the guy was in the cafe (possibly the owner) and how miserable the staff looked, it seemed too much trouble to ask for anything and ordering food was not a pleasant experience at all, we felt like we shouldn't have been there and an outcast to what seemed to be

Went here to feed the meerkats and meet other animals. Fantastic experience, well looked after and guided by young Jack who was knowledgeable and articulate.
