Having visited many farms around Melbourne with kids, this farm is by far the best in my opinion. The routes are well planned and thoughtfully laid out, with great, clean facilities throughout. There are shaded tree spots in all the right places for feeding the animals—especially appreciated on a hot summer day. We managed to see all the animals, including adorable newborn piglets and baby bunnies! The small animal petting farm and pony rides were definite highlights. The café has a great seating area, and the two playgrounds nearby make it easy for families to relax while the kids play. We will definitely come back again!

If your looking for a fast activity for the kids this would be it . We did rush abit as it was a very hot day and there was hardly anyone there(not much wait time) . Heaps of spaces to carpark , once you’ve checked in they hand you a complimentary hand sanitiser (great idea ) . The toilets are nice and clean !! Heaps and heaps of seating areas . This would be great for picnic with friends etc Next area is the petting area . My kids love patting the bunnies . Once that’s completed your handed two buckets of feed 1. For Ducks and 2. Every other animal but horses & pigs . But if you forget who you can feed the farm has signs all over the place saying which animals are safe to feed . The pony rides are very very short which is great for the kids attention span and for the pony’s wellbeing. They have a few pony’s on hand to rotate . Save your duck feed for the duck pond because you’ll be greeted by heaps of them . I wish the pigs had more wet mud to play with , but I can see it was dried up abit from the heat . I didn’t buy any food but what I saw around the joint look very very delicious!!!!

Thank you Dona, Georgia & Sarah! Our families had a great farm stay. The settlers house was very well equipped, and comfortable. Bedsheets, linen, towels were fresh & clean too. The animal farm tour and hands-on experience with the animals were really fun for the kids! Egg picking, milking the cow, these activities were really well guided. Highly recommend to visit and stay for the experience. Thanks Dona & Georgia!

I came with my husband and my 2.5 yo toddler. It was a Friday morning so there wasn't much of a crowd, parking was also easy and close to the entrance. It's a beautiful place and the animals are very friendly. As someone living in the north-western suburb, I appreciate being able to drive 24 minutes away to see farm animals. My toddler loved the experience, he kept talking about it days afterwards. Love the pony ride, feeding the animals and visiting the nursery. We also love the playground and maze area, and you can tell it's a place made for children to play and interact with. My toddler already wants to go back, so we can't wait to go back in the future. Tips: I didn't know this, but if you pre-book your tickets 24 hours before (which I did) you had to choose a different option on the website to get a discounted rate. I chose general admission ticket when I should have chosen the discounted rate tickets. Overall, still a great experience and I have recommended the place to other parents.

Held my sons 1st birthday here - we had Sarah as our guide - she did an amazing job ensuring we had everything we needed and that all the kids had a turn at each activity. First time coming to Animal Land and we will definitely be back!

What an awesome place to both visit and also have a birthday party at! The activities are fantastic under the birthday VIP package. We rode ponies, enjoyed a tractor ride around the farm, milked a cow, visited chickens, and pat bunnies. Every kid at the party had a go at something and everyone had a wonderful time. I was worried we’d rushed for time or run late…but the head farmer assigned to our party group helped keep things moving graciously on reasonable schedule. I definitely recommend for parties. I was able to decorate the marque space and was able to set something great up using the space! The venue had everything I needed with tables, chairs and tables along with table covers, plates, drinks and party food for the kids. There was a “bar” area which I was able to use to hold drinks in a built in sink and have a grazing table spread for adults. Food servings were generous for the kids and the food was delicious! I recommend touring the site to work out your decoration needs to add your own unique spin to the party space. Thoughtful touches like an A/c blowing cool air into the marquee was lovely. The team working the day were super kind, accommodating and helpful however they can. The animals had so much open space, fed super well and looked healthy and happy. You sensed they were at peace just enjoying life 🐄

Nice little farm perfect for all ages. Entrance fee cost $20 for adult and $20 for kids above 18months old. Nice animal interactions throughout the whole farm. From holding rabbits, milking cow, pony rides, feeding ducks, horses and goats. Pig are also available for viewing, if you're lucky you may come across piglets too! Cafe on sites that serves hot food. Indoor and outdoor seatings are available. Playground on site. Good experience

Awesome place. Get the VIP tour if you want to make the most of your time. It is a 2 hour program with a farmer and includes a great set of activities for kids and a tractor ride. I can't recommend it enough.
