The prices were perfect for everything - I... More

I have two small children and they loved it at gin case. There's a out door play area as well as an indoor soft play. I think it's a good day out

Went during the easter holidays with my partner and 2 sons(6,11). Checked the website before we set off and it stated their was a reduced rate admission because of the time of year. Paid £21 to get in, saw some horses, alpaca, chickens, rabbits and lambs! Not impressed! The animals we did see looked very sad, the play area inside... More

The improved interior play was a god send considering the rainfall!!! Hence proving rather difficult for us to get around the animals to feed them. Perhaps the rather large puddles could be filled in with shillies so the adults don't sink and the muddy water does not come over the tops of the kids wellies. Always on the plus side... More

Visited The Gincase for Sunday Lunch for son's birthday. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Food was excellent, staff very friendly and lovely pleasant atmosphere. Had a look around the gift shop but didn't look at the animals on this visit, there is a fee to see the animals.

The indoor barn with all the animals for the children to feed safely and the information available. The food is all freshly prepared and the Gincase is a family run place where you can be sure of good food and a friendly welcome always.
