The Main Event

This VIP Farm Experience is packed with some of the cutest animals you could hope to meet. 

During this unforgettable visit, you’ll enjoy three special animal experiences, giving you the opportunity to meet some truly loveable farm residents up close.

You'll meet with the farm’s pygmy goats, a cheeky little group of tiny goats who are full of personality. Step into the paddock and spend time feeding, petting and bonding with them as they bounce around and investigate everything in sight. They’re curious, playful and always ready to cause a little mischief, making them a joy to spend time with.

You'll head out to the fields to meet the farm’s beautiful herd of alpacas. This relaxed encounter lets you enjoy the alpacas roaming freely in their paddocks, rather than walking them on leads. You’ll be able to feed and pet them while learning about their unique personalities and behaviours. They are extremely photogenic, so expect plenty of opportunities for selfies and photos. You’ll even get to meet the farm’s llamas and discover what makes them different from their fluffy alpaca cousins.

The highlight for many though is the chance to meet the farm’s magnificent Highland cows. With their long, shaggy coats and impressive horns, they’re one of the most recognisable cattle breeds in the world. After a short introduction and safety briefing, you’ll step into their paddock to get properly acquainted.

Here you’ll be able to hand feed, groom and pet these gentle giants, spending quality time with the small fold of Highland cows who call the farm home. Known for their calm nature, they’re wonderfully relaxed animals and incredibly rewarding to interact with. And of course, their striking looks make for fantastic photos.

Combining three brilliant animal encounters in one experience, this VIP farm visit is a wonderful gift idea for anyone who loves animals.
