    Found this the other day so brought the kids today and they loved it. Only open this year and its really good. It was five euro in per person, toddler went free. They have rabbits, llamas, horses, pigs, lambs and a few other animals. There is also a huge bouncy castle and a kids play area. Had a tea and kids had ice cream while listening to the donkey giving out and the geese chasing the horses (very funny). Was there for a couple of hours so worth the money, have two very happy kids now (although toddler now wants a donkey:().

    Just thought I'd let others know about it as I only happened to drive by one of their road signs during the week by chance, hadn't heard of it before.

    Went there a couple of weeks ago. It's €15 for a family as well. The kids fed the lambs from a bottle and were in the fowl enclosure trying to pick up the hens and ducks. It's definitely value for money.

    i'm not sure exactly where it is but if ya come out of clane towards kilcock take a right at baltracey cross, its a very wide junction at the next left ya will see a sign for clonfert pet farm

    It's very out of the way but well signposted. From Maynooth - either take the Straffan Road (turn right at the substation) or the Kilcock Road (left after the NK Rugby Club) and follow the signs.

    Went out with our 2 boys (6 and 3) today. Spoke to the owner for a few minutes (he produced a bottle of milk for our boys to feed the lams through the fence with) and he said the farm is only open since Christmas. It was €15 for the 4 of us and we were there for 40 minutes all in. Most of that time was spent on the bouncy castle and swings.

    It's easy enough to find, there are lots of signs everywhere one you get into the area, one of the nicest things to do in kildare with kids They have a google map on their website for more detailed directions.

    Great family place. We brought our 4yo son to his friend's birthday party there a few weeks ago and I would definitely recommend it for this!

    I use Google Maps to get there. i would never find it otherwise.

    Take the Kilcock Road. Turn right at Baltracey Cross. Then follow the signs from there. If you go as far as Ladychapel on that road you've gone too far. It's a left turn off the road between Baltracey and Ladychapel.
