Staff, location, animals, afternoon tea, boat, Quinlan and Kim, fantastic 😊😊😊
The Earnslaw is an impressive steamboat and it’s great to see a fully working steamboat that has been around for 113 years. Walter Peak Farm was awesome you get to feed and pat the animals. So beautiful
My little boy and I had a wonderful time on this tour. From the Babychino and coffee when we boarded, the cruise itself, exploring the boat, arriving to friendly waves of the Walter Peak team then exploring the farm, meeting and feeding lots of animals. The scones at morning tea were delicious! If you have young kids, highly recommend the 9am departure. The boat was much busier with the lunch arrivals. It’ll be a day spent with my child I’ll never forget. Highly reccomend.
Great experienced
