Mini Train and Mini Golf Cafe / Yarralumla Play Station

Extreme over priced and terrible petting zoo. Very few farm animals, Alpacas spat and almost all animals have signs saying animals bite. $50 for a 20m walk and 5 minutes. Unfortunately money not well spent.

Disappointed as we organised our morning around having breakfast, only to be told the kitchen wasn't open this week (based on the amount of people here that was a big mistake). No notice of this on their website or Facebook when I looked before coming and tge menus were outside the entrance! Other options around the area are limited, so we couldn't really leave and come back easily.

Don't rely on the clock for train times, twice now they haven't bothered to keep it updated, the first time it caught me out and I then only had time for a train ride instead of a farm visit as well- that is the only reason I came back, I had tickets for the farm visit I didn't want to waste.

So much potential given their location and activities on offer, but not looked after, old equipment and metal/rubbish everywhere and nothing kept up to date.

Now for the farm animals, others have commented on this, I think the conditions are largely ok, given they are older animals/ones that don't require a lot of space, but it is heartbreaking to see the ducks with a small bucket of water to preen themselves.

Very expensive for an underwhelming experience have been and done but will not return.

Over priced and over rated.

The facilities are old and run down. Rubbish and mess everywhere. The only nice thing is the mini golf, however that's dirty with leaves and mud. They don't seem to do much maintenance.

The condition of the animals is pretty poor. They have a such a large cow stranded in a small bedroom size area, shin deep in mud. Not one dry spot for it to rest or lie down in. This was the case with all the animals really.

For the price they charge, surely you can afford a few bales of straw or saw dust to bed the animals with.

A real let down. We arrived at 8am as the website stated thats when they open, only to be informed that the first train isn't until 10am. This was very frustrating as there is no mention of their train schedule on the website. We were met by a staff member that had no regard for customer service. We were lucky to get a grunt out of her. It was going to be a 39 degree day hence the early arrival. We were also not the only ones who had arrived early, there were 4 other family's waiting around. This business clearly has no ability to cater for customer service or demand. We left and went to cockington green.

Owner clearly has no idea on how to run a business. Clean up your rubbish mate and look after your animals properly.

If you want a cup of milk for $5.50 then get a chocolate milkshake here. Was looking forward to a refreshing milkshake after a lovely swim, and got a disappointingly SMALL cup of frothed up milk.

Had our son's party there. Really disappointing. Not cheap and our 'hosts' were bored and disinterested. They had no clue what was going on and often disappeared. When I raised it with the manager in an email I got no response. Says a lot, really. Avoid.

144 for 2 adults and 2 kids, one Child Very young. No concessions discounts, train is outdated, there's a very small amount of farm animals and walked around the small feeding farm about 3 times in 10 mins and had to wait about 10 mins for every hole of golf. Not a great experience as kids had more fun at the free park across the road afterwards. Food is pricey. Better off going to something else in canberra and saving your money.

The mini golf, whilst functional, is in disrepair and a facelift is required. The kids had fun for two hours whilst we played on both courses. But I remember when the was actually a ‘new parliament house’ not just some rotting timber and bent metal.

Has potential but not looked after, old equipment and metal everywhere and nothing kept up to date. The animals are in mud pits, yes I know pigs love mud but not in winter up to their stomachs with no dry land, the cow is also in a mud pit with no grass or dry land to keeps its hooves dry and away from rot. Very expensive for an underwhelming experience have been and done but will not return.

I wouldn't recommend the birthday parties as there is only one host per party. We adults were playing mini golf whilst the party was in progress only to find a group of children that were supposed to be supervised walking all over the mini golf course. This caused my daughter to be more pro active in checking on her son that was taking part in the birthday party.

Needs a lot of work!
Half the 18 holes have had zero thought put into them. I wish I had not wasted our money!

Toilets were filthy and the staff / managers were rude. Luckily the kids running the train we're doing a great job so our day wasn't completely ruined!

We pay $50 for the family pass which involved legitimate 5 minute train ride to a tiny petting zoo that was half closed for repairs. Can't help but feel scammed

A great place to visit with the kids. Probably a little on the pricey side. The entire place needs to be cleaned as it has many piles of rubbish and old building supplies. Edit: Still heavily tired and not well maintained.

Fun for kids but food for the farm animals could be included in the price and the prices overall are a bit much, in my opinion. Even so, kids had fun.

It's a decent spot for a little bit of fun, but it's a bit run down and the drinks (didn't buy food) are stupid expensive.

Over priced. Run down. Train ride is fun for little kids however its not worth the 15 dollar ticket fòr a 5 min train ride. The place could do with a good clean up as there ìs junk all over the place. Farm animals could do with some ģreen grass ìn their enclosures. This place has potential just a shame ìts so run down.

Put-Put is pretty good, and the place is a cool concept, but the train and animal petting zoo could do with a big update, just very tired.

The train and farm animals is a cute little activity for the kids. Watch our for the googly eyed alpaca!
