    We had a lovely time here for my daughter’s birthday. The lines initially for food and drink were quite busy. But lovely cafe experience, and wonderful attraction to feed the turtles, and the farm animals. The people running the horse riding were amazing, very accommodating and my children had the best time. Thanks so much for having our big group of 22 people we will be back.

    Food was good. Service was excellent & the view looking out onto the water & the greenery was beautiful. For us personally,the music was a bit too loud, it would've added to the peace & serenity if there were no music & all u could hear was the sound of nature. The $4 animal feed was too over priced considering the size of the cup. Overall, it was a lovely place to visit & we'll definitely visit again. It's a great place for families with small children. Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise with us 😊

    Lovely location. The food was average, not a lot of variety, and very sugar laden. It's a beautiful location though. The lady leading the small pony around did not appear to know how to lead it correctly. It did not appear very happy or comfortable with her.
