What a fantastic place to visit. It really feels like you are out away from the hustle and bustle. The walks are awesome and there are quite a few animals to see. The staff were so friendly often asking us how are meals were and making sure we had all we need. The food itself was rather tasty. I had the Ruben and my partner got the schnitzel. Both were good and it's been a while since I had a ruben sandwich and this was as good as any I've had. Great prices as well After food we explored the grounds and it really is just a beautiful place to see. Very relaxing and great after work Keep up the awesome work, highly recommend visiting here

Café and small farm run by a charity supporting those with different abilities. Spacious, friendly and not crowded with good food – especially the delicious farm fresh eggs. Also a great spot for kids and animal lovers to walk around and view goats, ponies, etc.

Beautiful little cafe that is a hidden gem. Staff are friendly and nice. Also have a big lake to go for a walk and to see the animals was nice.

Such a beautiful spot! The staff are exceptional, the coffee is excellent, and the food is always delicious! I especially love the veggie fritters, chips, and scones. The gardens are gorgeous to explore, and the animals are so well cared for.

Lovely atmosphere, really enjoyed the autumn menu. I recommend the pumpkin panini. A little cold inside because it’s open aired but I’m sure if the fire is on it would warm up

Great experience for a coffee or cafe meal at very affordable pricing and then have a wSnder around the farm, lake or bushealk. A local hidden gem that any inner city dweller should experience if passing or to do a detour for a break in your drive.
