Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The barn is quite a bit out from the city, south close to Mairaetai. The parking lot is decently sized but not large. It was half full when we went. The barn itself houses the cafe and the store. The store had quite a few interesting items inside which looked locally made. souvieniers
There were a few table and chairs outside with the chickens and the turkeys. They also had animal feedings. You can get a pouch of feed for $2 from the counter in the barn. You take the ticket out to back to the animals where they can give you anima or bird feed. If you come at feeding time, you can also feed the animals with veges. There weren't a lot of animals to feed though, pigs and donkeys. They also had guinea fowls but they didn't take any of the bird feed.
There is a small area out back which looks to be hirable. It has a small pond near it. There are also some ducks there.
Overall I thought that it was a nice experience even though the animals on the farm was limited.
