    We had a lovely afternoon at the farm. The icecream was yummy, I had ginger and poppy seed.

    Passed through here on the way back from Stafford going to Wheaton Aston. Lots of animals to see here, a nice passing visit.

    Great selection of ice creams along with their local produce as well. Can also pet animals as well so it was a fun day out!

    Lovely place. Great ice creams and desserts. Coffee great too. Lovely building, very well done. The farm is good for the kids (and free). Plenty of free parking. The toilet facilities are clean, but need extending so they are not unisex and there is a need for a disabled toilet. Although we didn’t use the campsite, it looks good with electric hookups too. I’ll be visiting again soon.

    Stayed here for a week on the rally field. A week off gorgeous weather in September so most grateful for the ice cream. It would be nice to have separate mens and womens facilities but what there is was kept clean and well stocked.

    A lovely farm with lots of animals, sheep, pygmy goats, donkeys, llamas, horse, chickens and ducks! There is also some amazing ice cream with plenty of different flavours!! You can also buy tubs to take away! Free entry which is good for an afternoon or morning out.

    Well placed little farm shop with animals to look at and fuss. Reminds me of many farm shops that started like this but then grew into an unrecognisable massive play area. Hopefully it can stay like this and keep its character. Fresh produce, animals, clean toilets, decent tea,coffee and ice cream at reasonable prices. Good place to bring the children for a few hours. Well done. Fully open and back to normal.

    Superb little farm, there was no information about tractor tours there, would’ve been interesting to do but safe to say we’ll be going back. Animals were very friendly and there were chickens everywhere just walking around. Our little one loved them all and you can buy bags of food of 60p each and feed most of them. No entry fee either. Coffee was very good and the shop also!

    Great ice cream (some really unusual flavours!) and the farm animals are fun to see. Campsite gets a bit noisy at times and is really busy on a sunny day. Fun for all ages.

    Nice to visit to pass an hour or so. Can get up close to the animals which the kids enjoyed. We arrived at 10.45 just after opening but first tractor ride wasn't until 12.30 and wasn't enough to do so didn't stop for a ride, would be good to do an earlier ride. Ice creams and coffees were good but wasps everywhere inside and outside, was concerning around the kids

    Miserable lot, no manners, no idea how to treat young children. Sky high prices, I asked for a strong Americo and was given a horrid milky coffee.

  • 4/5 Grace M. 1 year ago on Google
    I absolutely love it here. There is a range of animals for you to see and feed, a cafe which sells the best ice-cream. The only thing I would say that could make this better is a children's park. Free parking and admission is always a bonus.

  • 5/5 KATHRYN J. 7 months ago on Google
    What a great find this place was, well set put. A variety of animals, and free to visit. You can buy food to feed most of them , the 1 alpaca kept following us it was so cute, we love the alpacas. We had coffees 1st then later icecream. Such a lovely place

    The customer service was poor because we asked if they could provide us with an ice cream cone but they refused as they were closing soon. In addition, they previously closed before 4:30 so we were upset as we wanted an ice cream. Despite these issues the ice cream was very nice.

  • 5/5 Stephen B. 8 months ago on Google
    Great campsite with all necessary amenities, absolutely fantastic for young families, the animals are a joy to be around. During our visit we found the staff to be incredibly helpful too, a great day out ( or longer visit).

    Lovely for all ages - after all who doesn’t like ice cream or a petting farm! Campers too! Beautiful spot. ❤️

  • 4/5 Linda F. 10 months ago on Google
    Great to see the animals that must be a huge attraction for children especially. Hear the ice cream is to die for but didn't indulge this time. Met my friend who caravans there & loves it. Shame the cafe doesn't serve meals now, but got a pasty & cakes. It was extremely busy today with the good weather & 1/2 term but still very enjoyable. Would love to visit them again there

  • 5/5 James R. 1 year ago on Google
    Super duper choice of ice cream flavours and some farm yard animals to look at whilst the hens follow you round looking for scraps.

  • 5/5 Barbara B. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this place, the ice cream is fab. Lovely animals, so friendly. Great for children. Cafe not expensive. We take motor home for weekend, with electric hook up. Farm free entry.

    Fantastic farm and delicious icecream that they make themselves the tea room and selection of cakes is lovely, they have started doing tractor rides that takes you round the farm that is not open to the public would recommend this farm for a day out.

  • 4/5 Georgia M. 1 year ago on Google
    Really idyllic location and very well kept. Free entry. Animals all seemed happy and well looked after, and the kids loved being able to see them. I especially loved giving a fuss to Jack, the magnificent shire horse. He really was a stunning beast. The ice cream itself was good, the cream egg ice cream was absolutely to die for, and generous servings too. Only 4 stars due to the wasp problem, we tried to sit and eat our ice creams in the little seating area but it became impossible because of the wasps, so we finished our ice creams in the car, where we were still hounded by wasps - it made what was otherwise a very lovely couple of hours a bit difficult to completely enjoy. It would be worth getting pest control in to address this issue.

  • 5/5 Susan B. 1 year ago on Google
    A truly magical place for children to visit and all for the price of a bag of animal feed. Opportunities for children and grown ups to pet sheep, goats, alpacas, Jack the magnificent and placid shire horse and others. The children loved it. And the coffee shop sells wonderful cakes and the ice cream is to die for. Already planning our next trip.

  • 5/5 Hayley H. 1 year ago on Google
    Really nice place to spend your morning or afternoon. Bags of food available to feed the farm animals. Very well kept areas to eat and camp. Lovely cafe with amazing ice cream and dairy free option also. Tractor tour was well done and informative. They definitely need to get their tour guide a microphone poor guy was having to shout over the tractor. We really enjoyed our time and will go back.
