Sheep shearing

Our Japanese visitor says she had never seen sheep shearing before and found it fascinating. And the hands on up close with so many animals was wonderful. We got lots and lots of great photos.

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!
