The pet handling show allows children to learn a little bit about the smaller animals at Cantref Adventure Farm.
Rabbits will be brought out for the children and they will have the opportunity to hold a guinea pig on their laps. New arrivals to the pet barn are also shown in this show.
Our friendly staff will be around at all times to assist you.
Fancy a short pony ride whilst visiting Cantref Adventure Farm?
