Teen Verdict

So so cute! I had no idea that there was a farm like this in London. I love animals so I got a couple friends to come with me on the weekend and we had such a good time. We saw so many adorable animals and had a nice stroll in the gardens. They also had a cafe open so we decided to have some lunch there which was delicious. I’d recommend this to anyone looking to do something different and FREE!
