Marianne Halford and her son Ed have kept Highlanders at the farm since 1997, during which time we have learnt to appreciate the unique character of this hardy native breed of cattle.
We
have had great pleasure from letting people comb the
cattle at Agricultural Shows and from leaning on gates
at the farm on a summer evening listening to the Curlews
and now would like to share this with you.
When
you come, you can see other animals to which we are adding
all the time, including our two inquisitive goats.
We
make every effort to make sure that you enjoy your
visit and your safety is important to us. We therefore
would suggest that you note the following points: • Make
sure that hands are washed after touching the animals
and before eating food. • Do not shout or scream
round the animals: it can frighten them and their
reactions can then be unpredictable. • Children
should always be in the care of a responsible adult. • Cuts
and grazes should be covered with a waterproof dressing. • DO
not eat the animal’s food, or kiss them. • Do
not eat food that has dropped on the ground, share
food with the animals or replace dropped dummies
in mouths. If in doubt about anything please ask
a member of staff. STRICTLY NO DOGS
