Entertainment & Activities
They have baby lambs (I know its redundant but they've got a variety of sized lambs) in the spring and they are so cute! You can tour the whole place, where they milk the sheep and all that. They have fresh yoghurt and brie in a fridge in one of the barns and you just help yourself and pay using the honor system.
