Aside from the tiny road that you need to travel to get here, this is an amazing place to stay for a holiday (if you have a young child). The farm has lots of animals that they can interact with as well as a very well equipped indoor play area and a swimming pool. The farm has sheep, rabbits, Guinea pigs, a horse, a donkey and plenty of ducks & chickens.
