    Great family afternoon
    Really enjoyable afternoon. Prebooked online. Went with my 14 year old daughter who loves animals. Everything was very well run. The animals were available to feed (5oc for a little tub of food - great idea!) and to see up close which was a bonus. The owner was very welcoming and also alert to social distancing asking a queue of people to come back in a little while for the petting of the kitten/rabbit/guinea pig rather than queue outside the barn. This session was also well run with one family or child per table - the animals were supervised by the friendly staff while the kids got to interact with them. The occasional sheep roaming free outside added to the fun. Coffee shop very clean and also well run. Would visit again.

    Nice
    Went to farm on a nice sunny day (advisable). Can purchase small cup of food to feed animals (sheep very appreciative). Goats have free reign to mingle with people and are not shy, but very nice. There is animal petting at 3pm and queue moved quite well. A couple of rabbits and hamsters also. Kids enjoyed it. Plenty of sinks to wqash hands after. Shop on site for coffee/tea/drinks and ice cream. Nice playground on site, small and good bench tables for eating at. I would expect that approx 1-2 hours would do it as not that big, but was clean and well run. Make sure to read signs for each animal, as it will advise you that some animals can bite (donkeys), and you need to supervise younger kids who don't know that or older kids who dont know how to feed animals (flat palms). Overall, very enjoyable.

    Great family day out
    Kennedys pet farm is a very enjoyable and easy day out. As well as the Happy and clean animals (some of whom) wander freely around, there are 2 giant playgrounds to keep your little ones happy. The fairy walk is always enjoyable (and there's a third playground there). The shop is lovely and they do a nice coffee. They have great systems in place for the Post Covid era we are living in- you must pre book so numbers aren't too high. You've a specific time for petting the animals. Superb cleaning was evident throughout our time there. They close the farm for an hour to do a deep clean before the next group are admitted. Well done to Kennedy's Pet Farm. A thoroughly enjoyable visit every time we go.

We had a very disappointing visit to this farm while on our holidays. The toys were not fit for use and was a huge health and safety breach that needs to be looked at as a necessity. Young children expected to play on very old, worn, broken pieces of plastic that are actually dangerous. Extremely overpriced for what you are getting. Animals were free which was lovely and outdoor area was nice along with walks and surrounds. However, this was shadowed by the lack of attention to indoor areas. No where to dry hands after washing which comes down to basic hygiene practices in an establishment. The maze was covered in damaged pieces of wood causing very bad splinters to children’s hands not to mention the lack of upkeep or maintenance of these areas which you would expect to be in good condition for the price that is paid. A full health and safety inspection needs to be done of the entire establishment before someone gets hurt. Would not be recommending to anybody.

An absolute brilliant place to go on a day trip…very reasonable entry fee,went here with my wife and 3 kids and cost €47.50! Spent about 2 hours there but no reason why you couldn’t stay longer(weather permitting) very polite and pleasant staff also!
Will definitely return as kids were asking when are we going back the minute we left in the car

Spent an enjoyable afternoon at Kennedy’s pet farm. Much smaller than other open farms that we’ve been to. But had a great selection of animals that all seem happy and well looked after. Pleasant and friendly staff. Fabulous big playgrounds. Great indoor playgrounds too for rainy days.

Visited this pet farm with our toddler.
She enjoyed it so much that we returned a second time a few days later.
The unique part of the pet farm is that it has 2 playgrounds surrounded by lots of animals.
For example children can pet Sheep under the slides.
There is also allocated times to pet animals such as the rabbits.

Our little ones highlight was when a goat jumped up
On the table and took my flapjack :)
