Looking for an unforgettable animal experience?

Join us for a private, hands-on visit with some of the friendliest residents of Nicholyn Farms! During this exclusive 45–60 minute experience, you'll spend time with our Highland cattle, donkeys, and mini ponies while learning about their personalities, care, and life on the farm.

This isn't just a chance to see the animals; it's an opportunity to interact with them.

During your visit, you'll have the opportunity to:

• Brush and groom the animals
• Hand-feed approved treats
• Take photos and videos
• Learn about each animal and their unique personality
• Enjoy plenty of hands-on interaction and affection

Our Highland cattle love a good brushing, our donkeys never say no to extra attention, and our mini ponies are always happy to soak up the admiration. If you're looking for a farm experience filled with furry faces and unforgettable memories, this is it.

Meet the Herd

Depending on the day, your visit may include time with:

• Our Highland cattle, including Linnhe, Maree, and Lochlan
