Very fun outing
Great fun. Impressive sheep dog demo. Held and fed baby lambs. Outgoing and friendly host. Beautiful location. Highly recommend.
Incredible Sheep Herding Experience
Upon arrival, we were given baby lambs to hold! They were adorable. The sheep herding demonstration was brilliant. We would highly recommend this experience!
Nice activity
Tom clearly adapted to his audience. He's very friendly. His explanations are clear and understandable. The herding dog demonstration was just great. we were there with our 3-year-old daughter. He adapted to her. We were able to feed the lambs, pet them, carry them. I recommend +++ this activity. It was great.
Adorbs!
Lovely experience and good insight to the sheep farm. Enjoyed it very much. Baby Lambs were adorable .
Highlight of our trip to Ireland
This visit was an incredible experience. The scenery is beautiful and the sheep farmer was both knowledgeable and gracious. It was so of him to open up his working farm for a visit. He provided a demonstration of his sheep dog working the sheep. It was masterful to watch the way that dog works and obeys his commands. The baby sheep are so cute! Highlight of the trip to Ireland. This is definitely worth a visit!
