About
A working farm above Watergrasshill that rehomes rescued pigs, donkeys, goats and alpacas, then wraps them in Celtic mini golf, a wildlife-pond nature trail and a farmhouse restaurant with views to the Galtee and Knockmealdown mountains.
Things to Do
Meet and Feed the Animals
Pigs, donkeys, goats, Falabella horses, llamas, emu, poultry, rabbits and birds here are all rehomed, and the farm also keeps alpacas, Highland and Angus cows and calves, sheep and deer. Almost all of the animals are rescues.
Nature Trail and Pond
A buggy- and wheelchair-accessible farm walk past over 3,000 planted native trees to a pond that fills with frogspawn in spring and hosts moorhens, ducks, geese, lapwings and heron. The trail loops back via the vegetable patch and potato garden.
Outdoor Play and Celtic Mini Golf
An adventure playground with interconnecting playhouses, slides and swings, plus a sandpit with diggers, a roundabout, a tractor track and a Celtic-themed crazy golf course. There are picnic and sheltered seating areas alongside.
Indoor Soft Play Area
Two-hour pre-booked soft play sessions (10am-12pm, 12.30-2.30pm, 3-5pm) with indoor electric tractors, cleaned between each slot. Socks are required; book on 021 4889431 between 10am and 1pm, Wednesday to Sunday.
Farm Express Train and Pony Trap Ride
A farm train ride and a horse-and-trap ride add a sit-down break between the playground, animals and mini golf.
