点评:I took my 9year old daughter to Santons far yesterday. She is an absolute animal lover and I quote "it's the best farm we've been to because you could actually get in with the animals unlike the other farms". We love animals so going to places like this is never about all the frills and bows they have it's about seeing the animals and we were so surprised you could actually be in the fields with the alpacas and donkeys. You could go in the goat, sheep, chicken and duck enclosures too. You could feed all of the animals, they sell food for £1 a bag. They have a small play area at the back with a picnic area. We went a little later so had already eaten which is a shame because they had a food van too which the girls run and it did smell good. We got a couple of drinks from there too, had a good selection. We loved how free roaming it was the animals all looked happy and we could just wander around with them. They do animal experiences, we chose a snuggle session with the baby pygmy goat, omg they were adorable and tiny. Only a week old. I loved how they didn't take them from their mum's to be handled we went in with the mums and babies which made the mums pretty chill. They also said they won't be taking them away from the mums till the mums just stop feeding them which we liked the idea of. The snuggle session was only an extra £4ish each I think which was amazing. All the staff were really friendly. It was so peaceful and quiet there. As I said we went later and it wasn't busy so we got to see everything more than once, we actually spent so much time with the donkeys giving back scratches.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time.
翻译:昨天我带9岁的女儿去了Santons农场。她是个十足的动物爱好者,她是这么说的:“这是我们去过的最棒的农场了,因为可以真正近距离接触动物,而其他农场可做不到。”我们都很喜欢动物,所以去这类地方根本不在乎有什么华丽的装饰或繁杂的设施,重要的是能亲眼见到动物。能和羊驼、驴子一起待在田野里真的让我们大吃一惊。此外,还可以进入山羊、绵羊、鸡和鸭的圈舍呢。你可以喂所有动物,他们以每袋1英镑的价格出售饲料。场地后面有个小型游乐区,还有一个野餐区。我们去得比较晚,所以已经吃过饭了,这挺可惜的,因为那里还有一辆食品车,由女孩们负责经营,食物闻起来特别香。我们还在那里买了几杯饮料,选择也挺多的。我们很喜欢这里自由随意的氛围——动物们看起来都很开心,我们可以随意和它们一起四处逛逛。他们还提供与动物互动的体验项目。我们选择了和迷你山羊宝宝们亲密互动的体验项目,天哪,它们真是可爱又娇小,才一周大而已。我很喜欢他们不允许把小羊从妈妈身边带走让人抚摸的做法——我们是和母羊以及小羊们一起互动的,这样母羊也显得很放松。工作人员还说,除非母羊不再给小羊喂奶,否则不会把小羊从妈妈身边带走,这个做法我们非常欣赏。我觉得这个互动体验每人只需额外支付4英镑左右,真是物超所值。所有工作人员也都非常友善。那里真是宁静又安详。正如我所说,我们去得比较晚,那时游客不多,所以我们能反复观赏每一处景致。我们还花了大量时间和驴子们待在一起,为它们挠痒痒呢。我们彻底享受了那段时光。
