What an absolute joke! We paid over £50 for a family of 4, which is a good £45 over what it’s worth.
The first area was old and broken, and actually verging on plain creepy. The 2nd part which was a playground was all shut off and inaccessible. This would’ve been one of 2 play areas, but the other one was all metal and far too slippery to actually use after the rain. The dinosaur area was what attracted us in the first place but this was two dinosaurs with one “dig for fossils” area and that was it. There were no rides as implied by the map, and the farm was good, though I very much worry about one of the alpacas.
This is basically an overpriced, miserable collection of ducks, pigs, sheep, rabbits and an alpaca.
Edit after business response:
Firstly I love how the business has put more effort into their response than the actual farm itself.
As you can see from my pictures, there was almost half of the play area out of order, not just the mushroom (at least substantially more had red tape around it).
The huff and puff “playground” was not what I was referring to. The main play area for younger children by the unused rail track was too slippery to use, so there was nowhere for this age group to play outside. The inside play area is very small and was absolutely packed as this was the only area available for younger children.
In regards to the dinosaurs… exactly. There’s a handful of “dinosaurs” but I wouldn’t call it an area and the map made it seem like there was far more to do. It’s essentially a glorified and somewhat creepy walk.
You may not advertise rides as such but it looks like this is what the numbered things are on the map. The reality is incredibly disappointing.
Your only visible alpaca had an injured leg and was hobbling about. Other parents also expressed their concerns. Apologies I didn’t list all the animals above, but one of a few types of bird hardly covers what was advertised and most animals are in shelters far from where people can go, so you can’t see them.
What a disappointing response to go alongside a disappointing day.
