About
A 40-acre working farm in North Cork blending hands-on animal encounters, a nostalgic 1950s village, and a fairy garden — with the Haystack Restaurant serving farm-fresh food daily.
Things to Do
Step into the 1950s Village
Walk through a recreated rural Irish village: see a pre-electrification farmhouse, the old hardware shop, a working forge and milking parlour, a vintage garage, a 1950s classroom, and over 100 pieces of farm machinery spanning the 1930s to 1980s.
Explore the Fairy Garden
Search for Sparkle & Tinkerbell and their fairy friends hidden among flowers, shrubs, and tree stumps. Listen for their chimes and learn quirky fairy facts along the way.
Adventure Play
Kids can ride the barrel train, take the tractor-and-trailer tour, zoom down the zip wire, race peddle karts and tractors, and enjoy the playground. There's something active for every age.
