What to Expect
At Craigbank Farm, every visit is unique and tailored to provide an engaging experience for all ages.
Each tour consists of a walk round the livestock shed where the pregnant ewes are housed, along with the newborn lambs. The friendly farmers will talk you through the lambing process and answer any questions you have. From here you will visit the lamb shed where you can really get to know our sheep and lambs, there will be an opportunity to bottle feed the lambs and hand feed the sheep in this shed. Afterwards there will be the option to hand feed the donkeys and take close up photos of the highland cows.
Don’t forget to bring your camera to capture these special moments. Our farm is a place where family memories are made and cherished for years to come.
There is also the option to purchase hot drinks and cakes from our tea tent. Our free-range eggs will be for sale.
