Rocklands Petting Farm

Rocklands Petting Farm in Hermanus is an average attraction for families looking to spend a few hours with farm animals. While it has its charms, there are also some areas for improvement. The farm is home to a variety of animals, including sheep, goats, chickens, rabbits, and even ponies. Children will enjoy feeding and petting the animals, and there are also some fun activities like pony rides and a small playground. However, the overall experience can be underwhelming. The farm is quite small, and there isn't much to see beyond the animals. Some of the enclosures are quite basic, and the animals don't always appear to be well cared for. Additionally, the staff can be somewhat disengaged, and there is a lack of enthusiasm in their interactions with visitors. Another issue is the admission fee, which is somewhat high given the size of the farm and the limited activities on offer. While it may be worth it for families with young children who are eager to interact with the animals, others may find the price to be a bit steep for what is essentially a short visit to a small petting farm. Overall, while Rocklands Petting Farm is not a bad choice for a quick family outing, it falls short of being a truly exceptional attraction. With some improvements to the animal enclosures and staff engagement, it could be a more enjoyable experience for visitors.

Absolutely love going evertime with my little one. Kids get a very good and joyful experience and they just can't get enough of it.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure

Always love coming here. The animals are so cute and friendly. Great for kids. They welcome food donations too, so bring a cabbage and some carrots when you come.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo

Excellent coffee made on the fire, braaibread and salad to die for. Kids had a blast feeding and touching the various animals! Fantastic experience!

A must for any families with small kids. Plus they make delicious toasties on the open fier

Relax and have a lovely cup of coffee, while kids interact with the animals. Friendly staff and clean facilities are another plus.

Good experience,the kids loved it

Would definitely recommend for down to earth people! Get a snack pack and feed these lovely farm animals.

Awesome time for kids and adults alike! The animals are super friendly and the staff are great. They also sell plants. One suggestion would be to have a staff member monitor the bunny rabbit enclosure to ensure the bunnies don’t feel overwhelmed by the kids or aren’t mishandled either. Other than that - super fun and highly recommended!
