Reviews of Swan Valley Cuddly Animal Farm
Victoria McGuinn
We recently had Natalie and Montana bring thr animals to visit for our daycare christmas party. They were so kind and patient with the kids and everyone loved them! The animals were super happy and healthy and the kids had so much fun learning about them while they played. Could not reccomend these guys more! Will definitely be using them again in future

Great place for young and old to spend time among some animals. They have a nice small cafe there too. There is a small tractor/train ride for small kids, rabbit and genuine pig feeding pens, jumping castle and set times where you can bottle feed baby goats
Holly Clark
Visited for the first time in a lot my time today. The staff were lovely and helpful, and my child had a great time petting the small animals. She also fell in love with one of the birds, who was interacting with her. There was plenty to do for all ages. We didn't end up staying g for lunch, but the cafe looked clean and comfortable, and the food looked good.
Celine Williams
Brilliant birthday outing for me. Such a treat and wonderful therapy. I got to feed goats, play with rabbits, Guinea pigs, peacocks. This is a must visit and worth every penny. All the animals looked very well cared for.

It is not a huge place but we had so much fun! Truly up close with the goats and sheep, turkey, alpaca, kangaroo, horse etc. It’s so fun bottle feeding the calves. Do note that the queue move fast for the feeding so there’s no need to rush or fight over the chairs. You’ll be able to feed different goats/calves many times. Check out the feeding times
