The popular Highland Hoedown event features hands-on experiences, including grooming a nine-month-old Highland cow named Ghia and meeting a newborn calf. Following its success over May half term, the event returns on June 6 and 7. In addition to the Highland cows, visitors can interact with a variety of small animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, and ducks.
