We have a variety of farm and zoo licensed animals on the farm. We have a small zoo animal collection which is the result of various donations from over the years. All of our zoo animals have been bred in captivity and are not wild. Learn more about them here.
Please note that the availability of animal activities is still unclear due to covid restrictions for early 2021 but we will keep you informed if we feel we can go ahead with them. All animals are available to view and feed as normal however. You can buy animal feed at the kiosk.
