For a great family day out that's really different, why not explore the farm with a difference? Admire our magnificent herds of deer and find out more about farming today.

See how we look after our animals and protect the countryside and watch our farm in action on our special demonstration days. Explore the farm animals of yesteryear within our large conservation of rare breeds of sheep, pigs, cattle, chickens, ducks and others.

Gaze at the collection of birds of prey. Marvel as they fly gracefully through the air. Enjoy a light meal in our coffee shop or relax with a Bar-B-Q or picnic as the children have fun in our indoor and outdoor adventure area.

Join our ranger for a walk through the lovely Scottish Borders' countryside and discover more about the environment, nature and wildlife. Cuddle and feed our 'pets' in the 'clapping' corner - a must for all the family.
