The family – run farm is nestled in the Laois Countryside where we provide a home to a wide range of animals. We are dedicated to providing a warm welcome to visitors and ensuring they make the most of their visit.

The vision of developing the working farm into an agri-tourism family destination has taken commitment and support from the local community.
