Highland cow experience - We took the tractor tour to see the cows, was great to get up close to them and hear all about them. There were also pigs, sheep, goats and horses to see

Amazing day! - Absolutely brilliant day! We went for the highland cow experience, we were able to see the other animals and enjoy the rest of the farm whilst there. The kids loved feeding the animals, they were given a free bag of feed each upon entry. The animals were clearly well cared for and the attraction wasn’t over commercialised. Nice seating area to enjoy a picnic. We went on the trailer up to the highland cow field, this was amazing! A little intimidating at first but the farmer (Finnick - sorry about the spelling) was brilliant, showing us what to do and keeping everyone safe. The cows themselves were magnificent!

well worth a visit - We had a great day out here. We were running late for the lamb feeding and called ahead but they were very understanding. The staff are fantastic. We booked for the lamb feeding. They happily answered any questions and taught the kids how to make up the bottles. the kids were just in amazed with the lambs, They were happy for us to sit with the lambs and have cuddle after too. Its quite small but a wholesome day out with mudkitchens, tyre swings and outdoor play area. We will be back.

Great trip to Jackson’s - We visited the farm at the weekend and booked the lamb feeding. It was a great day, such a lovely farm, I love that we got feed for the animals and my boys loved feeding the lambs. Credit to the whole family, who are all involved.

Lamb feeding - We had a great day out feeding the lambs. All of the staff were welcoming and excellent with the girls. They took their time explaining the feeding process and they enjoyed making the formula for the bottles. They had so much fun feeding the lambs and spending time with them and the mischievous calf. Unfortunately the weather was dreadful and we couldn’t take advantage of all the farm had to offer but will return in drier weather.
