Had an absolute blast and spent hours here! A lot of the activities are of course children-oriented, but they were totally suitable for adults as well. I loved the variety of animals there were to see up close (cows, sheep, chicken, goats, pigs) as well as the demonstrations available. The entire estate was beautiful to just walk around in and explore (woodland trail, gardens). I also did a guided tour at the Overends House and the tour guide was wonderful--friendly, knowledgable, and catered to all ages present. The Overends Kitchen had delicious food and there were a ton of vegan/vegetarian options. Extra plus for sustainability and sourcing the food from their own farm!

Beautiful gardens, cows, chickens, pigs, bugs, lovely walks and play areas for the kids. Very expensive for food, 2x coffees and 2x croissants almost €20, later 4x cans of coke almost €20. Staff in coffee shop, didn't know where napkins were kept, shoulders shrugged as if it was my problem I needed some.
