Excellent day out
If you have a young family or you would like to see how sheep are handled in NZ, come here! Such a lovely experience. Got to see the show and tour the small farm all within a couple of hours.

Great day
We loved feeding all the animals and the shearing show was both very informative and entertaining. Kids enjoyed feeding the lambs after. Well kept and cared for animals. Recommended a visit!

Sharing show
Love Why they do it however there was not enough seating to sit with my baby and people having to stand otherwise was ok. I would probably just feed animals next time but good for tourists rather than locals.

Lovely place
The place itself is quite small and lives off the cuteness of its inhabitants, several sheep, pigs, alpaka, donkeys and similar animals. Please don't mistake this place for a zoo, its more of a educational farm with enclosed shop and shows. The show itself was really entertaining, we were shown two sheepdogs with different approaches to their task, some interactive shepherding games and even a live shearing of one sheep before the kids got to bottle-feed some lambs. Visiting the farm and seeing the show should not take more than about 3 hours, if you can make time for it and are in the area have a look!
