This was the best highland cow experience we could have hoped for! Our guide Andy was friendly and knowledgeable, and we got to pet and feed so many cute coos! We also got to pet and feed the sheep, and play with the energetic and friendly dog on property. Snuggling with Flora the calf was an amazing highlight. Definitely a must-do for anyone in the vicinity of Loch Ness!

This was the best highland coo experience! Wonderful coos and phenomenal views of Loch Ness and castle below. The smaller group lead to close interactions with the coos. Ian was great and loves his coos. I would love to do this again!

What a wonderful experience on the Highland Coo tour! Donna is a very good tour leader and her passion for the animals is clearly evident. There are also sensational views from the croft. I highly recommend this tour.

Ian, the croft, and the coos were amazing! If you are looking for a genuine Hairy Coo experience, look no further! Ian was awesome to hang out and chat with and the coos were friendly and sweet.
