The Turoe Stone on the property is considered one of the most important pieces of La Tène style Celtic art in Europe.
The original Turoe Stone is currently housed in the National Museum of Ireland, while the stone on-site is a high-quality replica.
The facility is situated on the historic grounds of Turoe House, an 18th-century residence.
The farm integrates active play equipment with traditional agricultural animal observation to maintain visitor engagement.
The site contains specifically designated areas for toddlers separated from the larger, high-energy indoor play structures.
Turoe Pet Farm is a family-oriented attraction located on a 14-acre site in County Galway. The farm features both domestic animals, such as donkeys, goats, and llamas, and a large indoor soft play area known as the 'Jungle City'. The grounds include an outdoor playground with a bouncy castle and a dedicated sports pitch. A central attraction is the Turoe Stone, a prominent piece of Celtic Iron Age art dating back to the 2nd century BC, situated on the property. The facility provides walking tracks through the surrounding farmland and woodlands. It is designed to accommodate visitors regardless of weather conditions due to its mix of indoor and outdoor infrastructure. The site functions as a recreational space for schools, birthday parties, and families. All animal enclosures are designed for close-up viewing and interaction.
