We have been here several times and have always enjoyed out stay. There is something that is very relaxing about hanging out with kangaroos - you can actually go in their enclosure and they are very friendly too! Their are also an assortment of birds on the property and a lorie enclosure for interaction with them. There are also dingos, horses and lemurs. They have sheep on the property and offer a presentation in which they use a dog to round up the sheep. A cave tour is also available on site. The guide provides fun facts and don't worry if you are claustrophobic as you can get in and out pretty quick. There is a snack bar/food canteen in which you can get sandwiches or treats. They also allow you to leave and re-enter if you desire to. You can easily spend the entire day here but I would suggest planning on around 4 hours at least. There is a lot of walking here and the entire farm is on a hillside. They now offer golf cart rentals which I highly recommend for getting around and for going onto the back loop of the property.

We stopped here after reading about it online. The cave guide was very knowledgeable about the history and geology of the cave. The tour itself wasn't overly strainuous although a lot of steps were involved. The zoo was nicely maintained with no noticeable odors. The animals seemed well cared for and friendly. My only complaint is that the shows were scheduled too close to the cave tour so we missed the beginning. All in all a nice stop at a reasonable price.

Come explore the little art gallery that wanted to be a museum. Each piece of art is accompanied by an artist's written description, lending to a greater understanding of the artistic nature of the piece.
