  • Restaurant Name: The Duck & Dolittle

    This charming establishment is situated on a working 500 hectare dairy farm. The restaurant is located in the old dairy.

    The restaurant is open Tuesdays to Sundays out of season, and seven days a week in season. Opening times are usually from 9.00am- 4.00pm and on Friday nights.
    They offer wonderful breakfasts, light lunches, and cream teas. There is a craft shop inside the restaurant. There is a jungle gym for the kids, swings etc.
    Children love the little animal farm. There are pigs and piglets, ponies, rabbits, poultry, calves and donkeys as well as an adventure playground. Packets of feed are available from the counter.

    Favorite Dish: There were lots of specials the day we went, but as we had had a good breakfast we settled for coffee and a chocolate pecan nut tart with cream!! It was divine!
    We sat outside, under the shade of a large tree, looking out at the distant mountains with the green pastures of the dairy farm in the foreground.

     Lovely pictures and good tips. I could be there in December but your tip on snakes didn't make it too inviting.
