Our Story

Farm owners: Shona & Craig

Hi, we are Shona and Craig, in 2022 we fulfilled our lifetime ambition of owning a farm when we bought Craigbank Farm. Neither of us come from a farming family so despite having some farming experience it has been a steep learning curve! However, three years later we are loving it, and would love to share our experience with you.


We have loads of really friendly animals and love people to get hands on experience of life on a farm. We really believe education is the future of farming and love to explain how it all works to anyone who will listen, so bring all your questions!


We look forward to meeting you and your family.

What We Offer

Visitor Experiences

Hear from our happy visitors


This was a great opportunity for my grandchildren to have hands on experience in a safe & environmentally friendly setting. Kids loved getting to know the names of all the lambs & getting a change to bottle feed them.

Paid a visit to Shona and Craig’s lovely farm. Family of four, my partner our two young boys and myself. Shona is a very knowledgeable, and approachable person who’ll make you feel very welcome. The visit met every expectation in terms of the animals and the accessibility, also the way in which children were encouraged to feed the sheep & lambs. The key factor was that there was a distinct lack of commercialism and concentration on animals.

Lots of variety in animals to see and interact with..

We had the best day at Craigbank Farm, both adults and kids! It’s one of the best interactions we have had with farm animals and my daughter loved it and still talks about it to this day! This family run farm by Shona and Craig, her handy sidekick, show you how much the animals are looked after and cared for. We will definitely be back!
