The Main Event

If you’ve ever dreamed of hugging a Highland cow (and honestly, who hasn’t?), this Highland Cow Cuddling Experience with Afternoon Tea in Shropshire for Two is the ultimate treat. It’s wholesome, heart-warming, and absolutely perfect for animal lovers looking for something a bit different.

Set on a beautiful Shropshire farm, you’ll be welcomed with a friendly health and safety briefing before the fun really begins. Then it’s time to meet the stars of the show, a small fold of pedigree Highland cows, each with their own big personalities and glorious fringes. These beautiful creatures have impressive Yorkshire lineage, linked to prize-winning stock, and they absolutely love attention.

You’ll get up close and personal with them in their paddock, feeding, grooming, and giving them a good old fuss. Whether you’re snapping selfies with your new shaggy friends or enjoying a quiet moment brushing their silky coats, it’s a truly unique experience that’ll leave you grinning from ear to ear.

After your cow cuddles, you’ll sit down to a delicious locally made afternoon tea, beautifully presented in a boxed picnic-style spread. Think freshly baked cakes, sandwiches, and sweet treats, all washed down with a proper cuppa. You can enjoy it in the farm café or head outside to take in the sweeping Shropshire countryside views.

Don't forget to take a look around the rest of the farm to meet the other animals too!

Perfect for couples or friends who fancy doing something a little bit different, this experience is as relaxing as it is memorable. It’s a brilliant way to slow down, reconnect with nature, and spend time with one of Britain’s most charming breeds.

Whether you’re searching for an unusual gift for someone who loves animals or simply fancy treating yourself to a day out with a twist, this Highland Cow Cuddling Experience with Afternoon Tea is moo-ch too good to miss.

  • Highland cow cuddles

    Had a lovely day despite being a little disappointed that there was a wooden fence between me and the highland cows, I was expecting to be able to get closer in a more intimate environment, but can understand that as she was pregnant and probably unpredictable. The afternoon tea was amazing and all the staff were very friendly as was Geoffrey the alpaca lol!

  • A lovely Highland Cow Experience

    We had a fabulous time having a Highland Cow hugging experience. Jon was an excellent host he was very funny and extremely informative about highland cows and farm animals in general. It was interesting hearing his story about the farm. The afternoon tea was delicious and the was lots of it. In all a very fun day out.

  • Best experience

    Really good experience. Got to get close to the cows and feed them.
    The afternoon tea was all home made and tasted amazing.
    Would definitely recommend to anyone.
    Only feedback would be that the group size was quiet large as I was told it would only be 4 people in a group so everyone seemed to not have as much time with the cows as expected.

    This was really a lovely thing to do and the owners were very friendly and experts in what they do. The Afternoon tea was lovely and lots of it in a box so you could take some home if you couldnt eat it all which we couldnt. Thank you

  • Perfect Day Out.

    We had booked the Highland Cow Experience with Afternoon Tea after.
    Farmer John and Natalie were so welcoming! The time spent with their adorable Highland Cows is a must for any fans of them - spent time feeding and grooming and fussing them with lots of photo opportunities too! After we were allowed to walk around the farm and meet all the other animals too which was an added bonus!
    The afternoon tea was delicious and very well made and presented!
    We were absolutely thrilled with our day and will be returning.

  • Beautiful afternoon

    I bought this as a Xmas present for my partner. When contacting the farm they were amazing, they managed to fit the booking in with my tight time frame. Email was sent out day before with directions although we missed the turn off of main road twice, from there it was easy to follow. We were happily greeted at check in and the farmer was lovely, very friendly and enthusiastic about his farm and new way of life! He was very knowledgeable and provided a relaxed and enjoyable experience. We were able to walk around the farm and greet the other animals even had a little cuddle with some lambs! The afternoon tea box was huge! Full of English favourites!
