Three‑Course Farmhouse Lunch
A highlight of the day is a hearty three‑course farmhouse lunch prepared by Anne Lennox and shared around the farmhouse table — many returning guests single this out as the most memorable part of the visit.
Seasonal, Hands‑On Farming Tasks
Each day differs with the season: walking fields to check stock, feeding animals, moving stock in fields or yards, fencing, gate work or drystone‑wall repairs — guests may participate or simply observe, according to their comfort.
Loch Lomond Setting and Family History
The farm sits with sweeping views over Loch Lomond and carries a long family farming story — an immersive setting for learning local farming traditions and seeing hill sheep country up close.
