Kitchen Coos & Ewes
Kitchen Coos & Ewes offer farm tours and experiences where you can see Highland cows and Beltex sheep in their natural, farm environment in beautiful southwest Scotland.

Wind and watertight - and with padded seats – the farm tour trailer means you can experience a working Scottish farm and meet our Highlanders without even the need for wellies! Your tour will finish with a cuppa and some home baking fresh from the farmhouse kitchen.
