Over 20 rare breeds, Bennetts wallabies and all the kiwi favourites — come and see, feed and pet the animals at Glenlothian Farm.
Welcome to the farm
Glenlothian Farm is a unique animal farm park and home to a remarkable collection of rare breeds — Enderby Island rabbits and Canterbury Blue pigs among them. As members of the Rare Breeds Society of New Zealand, we're also one of the few petting farms in the country where you can meet Bennetts wallabies up close.
Alongside the rare ones you'll find all the kiwi favourites — Shetland ponies, peacocks, pigs and a flock that loves a hand-feed. Every visit comes with the stories behind our animals, from Captain Cook's goats to the wallaby's journey from Tasmania.

Locally sourced products, made by local hands — browse the onsite Craft Shop beside the pond.
School visits, community groups, craft classes and birthday parties. Call Glenda on 021 032 8817 to book.
