Family fun
I have brought international students to Bullswool Farm many, many times as it is a very unique experience for them to be able to see, touch and explore so many animals in one space. They love being able to get up close and feel the animals, and being able to feed them is an awesome bonus. Bullswool never fails to delight and most of my guests are in their late teens or early 20's. Combined with a walk through the Karangahake gorge rail tunne,l and also the Windows walk, it is a great day out. If you have extra time make a full day of it and ride the train as well.

Bullswool farm
We took the grandkids and had the best day out. Such a beautiful farm and so much for the kids to see and do. Loved the wooden excavator and hut. Just a magical place . Thank you so much.

Lovely outing
We came with a 7 year old, an 11 year old, two adults, and a 16 year old exchange student. It was very fun! The $5 feeder buckets are massive and coloured cups indicate which animals eat which food in the bucket. There were baby turkeys and baby ducks! We also went on the short bush walk and there is a massive eel in the creek by the eel sign. I recommend this lovely farm. Also the lady running it is so nice! Loved chatting with her. She also has a little food truck that makes coffee and real fruit ice cream. I did not try the coffee but the real fruit ice cream is delicious. We also brought a picnic lunch and there was a covered veranda with a couch and wooden seating we could sit at to eat before exploring the farm.
