Big Fella Cherries

Great day cherry picking! I heard some people say there weren't many cherries but there were plenty! Bob down and look up as the big leaves can cover the bunches of cherries. It was a little tricky to navigate a pram so I reccomend a carrier if you have a baby. There is a beautiful shed to take a break. Lovely scenery

Been very good in the past years and I have always gone back. But dissapointed this year as we were told to pick from just 1 lane where there were not many cherries left. The man was reluctant to open another lane despite everyone complaining.

Really lovely orchard with yum cherries! Lovely ladies at the front packing cherry boxes and blonde one was nice to have a conversation with keep it up guys! Will be coming back in Jan for some more picking fun

Good quality of cherries.
Good price for the cherries.
The entry fee is too much especially for a large group of visitors.
Visitor should get $10 back when picking 5kg or more.

The cherry farm is amazing, but the wedding venue is phenomenal, the only bad thing I can say is that I didn’t book my own wedding here (massive regret), Mel was the greatest host ever

Should have been a good experience but by yelling and disrespecting customers, the employee named Jon ruined it all. It was more disappointed that the owners seemed not to be interested in addressing this problem. Will never come back and tell my friends and family to do the same.

Worked there for 2 years, they treated me badly and still owe me money. Go somewhere else please.

Wow.get a load of the comments from "the owner". I was looking for a nice orchard to visit, but will definitely be giving this one a wide berth (the owner seems more than willing to suggest others to visit other orchards, so I will take their advice).

We called to confirm the farm will be open on Friday and no booking is required. When we got the farm on Friday it was closed! Fortunately we found another farm nearby in the end so no one is disappointed!

$15 entry and $12perkg. Bit expensive.
The cherries are big and juicy but not much variety/choice.
They only open 2 rows of trees at a time, and the trees are still pretty small, which causes crowding and competition for the best cherries. This distracts from experience.
They have roaming 'assistants' who are lovely and have good CS and advice, but they can seem at times like the are observing you / checking your bucket / keeping you in the right lanes for picking.

On a personal note, I like to muck around and throw some of the fallen cherries, which I understand is not ideal, but it subtracts from the experience if I feel I'm being watched.

2/5

The worst cherry picking place I've been. They have a lot of cherry trees but open only couple of rows so all visitors compete against each other over a few trees. The trees are stills young and small with not much fruit. And as the final straw most of the cherries were not ripe. Won't be going there again. There are plenty of better places in the area.

This place deserves a five-star as the quality of the cherries were really good (big and sweet cherries) with a cheap price and welcoming staff. You pay 15 bucks for the entry fee but get half back if you pick more than 3kg.

Worth going place. But I will recommend to everyone please go in afternoon otherwise always call them before going. We went there almost 4: 30pm and there was nothing on the trees but still we found some. Their rates are very cheap the entry fee is only$7.5 ph and per kg cheeries are for $10. And the quality is very good. Staff is very friendly polite and they come again and again just to ask you if you are comfortable or if you have any question. Please every one specially the one who are planning to go there with their kids please take water with you, wipes put good amount of sunblock and take hats with you. Enjoy

It was an awesome experience. The staff are really friendly and polite. The Aussie lady at the chery farm was very kind and helpful. My kids loved it when she called the cow steer Big Ben for them to touch and pat it. Cherrie are really juicy and big. Very good quality cherries and also cheap. There is a nice sit out area to have some lunch or snacks. You have to take your own food. There is a small store you can buy drinks n stuff. Toilets are really neat n clean.
Overall it's a very good place to drive down n have some fun.

Beautiful delicious cherries & several varieties to choose from.
Very friendly staff.
Very cheap entrance fee compare to many other cherry farms & they offer free entrance as well.
We had a very pleasant & wonderful experience last weekend.
I highly recommend Big fellas & they deserve A+.
Many thanks “Big Fellas cherries”

Rang up to ask some general enquiries about the orchard and how it works. My previous cherry picking experience was pay a flat fee and eat all you want so wanted to clarify what’s different. Lady on the other end went on a tirade about there’s no such thing, among other things mentioning that if you do that on the farm it is considered thieving and you will be escorted out. Even after I tried explaining to her that I just wanted to be clear on adhering to the rules of their orchard and pay for what i need to, she questioned me further to name which orchard have i been to that allows eat all you want. And she ended by saying you can go other farms if that’s what I wanted. So yes, I will take her advice never to go to this farm.

I went to the place twice. The price is good. The cherries are relatively smaller but still sweet and taste good. However, there is a staff in the reception, a local lady. She has been really rude and cold to the visitors. I was even thinking she might be a racist. However, the Chinese staffs are pretty nice.

Great farm, nice area, wish they had more facilities and other cherries, but the quality of the cherries was great and so delicious

Staff are very rude, they actually watch your every move.
As I was picking the cherries they were going around and breathing down my neck.
I felt Very uncomfortable, avoid
There are much better places in the area where you feel very welcome.

Also some of the staff are very racist

Very bad & a rip off cherry farm. We were there last Saturday (24/12/2016), not many cherry left, owner should close the farm so people will not waster their time.also in their website shows the admission fee is $4, but we paid double the price when we arrived, the answer is the website is too old, hasn't been updated yet, so what the hell you put your price on the website? Absolutely not recommended, will not go next time.
