I went on a school excursion here when I was a wee six-year old kid. I have fond memories of this place, like trying to milk a cow or feeding their chickens. Just great, totally recommended.

I loved visiting the farm with my two kids, it really felt like a slice of country in the city. We very much enjoyed the cafe and the delicious coffee.

I have not been here since I was a child and so recently we went along for a family day out on a weekend.

Its easy to walk around the path ways to see various animals including chickens, horses, guinea pigs, sheep and more.

I personally enjoyed seeing the different varieties of chickens there!

We made use our entertainment book voucher which is buy one get one free adult ticket - $8 each. Our young baby was free of charge to enter!

Onsite there is a cafe selling a variety of lunches, snacks, drinks. Sorry cannot comment on the food/drink aspect as we did not purchase anything.

Very popular place on the weekend we attended with kids of all ages accompanied by adults.

Lovely experience!!!

The Collingwood Animal Farm was a fun day out with a group of adults and children.

The prices are reasonable and they gave us family passes even though we were a mix of families.

The children loved that they could feed the goats and cuddle guinea pigs! The day we went there were no feedings or petting zoo though, so there was not actually a lot to do. The children had fun anyway! They loved seeing the variety of animals and giving them all a pat!

Approximate cost: $16.00

Yes, I took the kids there when they were younger and we all had fun. Thanks for the review.

I cant speak highly enough about the Collingwood Childrens Farm!

We took our boys there today and they had an absolute ball! This is a proper working farm, but the restrictions you might expect dont apply! The little ones can go into the paddocks and freely interact with the animals, who are very socialised and even affectionate!

This is a great place to let your little ones have their first experiences with farm animals. They can hold or pet animals including Guinea Pigs, Chickens, Geese, Horses, Goats, Sheep, Cows and Donkeys!

Entry is only $16 for a family and the cafe is reasonably priced, but you can take your own food too if you like.

Great day out!

Approximate cost: $16

Great day out for the whole family. Our daughter loved it here with so much to see and do and in feeding so many different animals, grass to the goats, apple to a horse and pellets to rabbits. Tired our daughter and us out, great value for all and a good learning experience.

An affordable family outing with lots of animals to see, feed and pat. While the kids of course loved it, even hubby got into it too. They have a series of times allocated for egg collecting, cow milking, guinea pig holding and more. Needs to be a little bit better organised, particularly with some of their activities so that people know where to go and what's going on, even additional signage would be helpful. Not something to rush back to but definitely a great outing had by all. :)

Approximate cost: $8.00 per adult, 4.00 per child, 16.00 per family and concession prices available.

Such a cheap day out for the kids, and you'll enjoy it too with breakfast at the convent earlier its a great day out. And the lambs! Kids bottle fed one was so enjoyable and I enjoyed it too

An excellent day out for little ones. (Mine are 4 and 5 and I think they are the perfect ages)
It has a very relaxed feel to it and is not overpacked with things to look at and do. You can comfortably and enjoyably wander around and appreciate the farm like atmosphere (which is incredible considering where it is??!!)
Very hands on....kids can pet horses, milk or brush a cow, hold guinea pigs and get up and close with other farm animals.
Parking can be a little tricky, don't forget change for the parking meter's.
Reasonable price to get in and a great little reasonably priced cafe. But you can take your own food too which is great.

I've taken my 3year old and 14month old here a number of times and they love it! We like to head off early morning when the farm opens so as to beat the rush of people and spend some quality time with the sleepy animals. Plenty of up close experience patting, holding and viewing animals from pigs, chickens, cows, sheep and goats to a cuddle with a guinea pig. If you're lucky you can collect fresh eggs while you're there. Quite a novelty for my two boys. We pack a picnic lunch and find a shady spot to sit and enjoy the atmosphere. On weekends there is often tracker rides, but you're combating a lot of people about. So if you're lucky enough, get there on a weekday :)

Approximate cost: $Entry is $8 for an adult and $4 for the kids

Wonderful! Thanks for that :) I've been wanting to go for quite some time. Weekday sounds perfect. Ps. How's the parking?
