Sometimes birth is so quick and easy that mom may take a few minutes to know that she has a baby to clean. We have never found a mother in distress. making the birth process, even for a young heifer - quick, relatively easy, and trouble free. Naturally raised, they are a slow growing breed and their calves are exceptionally small - typically between 20 to 40 pounds. In over 20 years we have never had to "pull" a calf, or treat our animals for any sort of severe illness (other than a single heifer that contracted a severe case of pink eye six or seven years ago - and who is now a 1,500 pound favored pet named Susie. If maintained without crossbreeding (as ours are) vet calls for anything other than a physical injury or illness are rarely necessary. They are a hardy breed due to their native/original environment. However, they are now raised in many countries. The breed originated in the Highlands of Scotland and was first mentioned in the 6th century AD. They have long horns and long wavy coats that may be blonde, black, brindle, red, white, or dun, and they are raised primarily for their exceptional meat. Scottish Highland Cattle are one of the oldest breeds of cattle in existence. It’s abundantly clear that the owners, managers and staff enjoy what they do and take pride in this park.On our farm, we've been raising these fantastic creatures for more than 20 years. Sadly it was at the end of our trip so we only stayed one night, but I will definitely go back with my son and spend a bit more time. This park is committed to reducing its carbon footprint and minimising waste which is fantastic for our environment. Clear instructions, efficient, clean machines and dryers that were a pleasure to use. I also did my laundry whilst there and these facilities were also perfect.
Decent, clean, quality, mops, squeegees and buckets were provided to clean the excess water for the next person to use. The shower block was warm, with lovely hot water that was consistent and easy to control, the shower heads were clean with a uniform spray that actually enabled you to wash effectively (as opposed to spraying the ceiling and any which way but on your actual body). The facilities were fantastic with a great bar and restaurant and the park itself was immaculately tidy and very well maintained. Quite a contrast to other caravan parks we had cause to use during our trip. Unbidden, help was offered with regard to directions to the caravan park, information was given as to the facilities, and our late arrival posed no problems as there was a perfect system to accommodate that.
My son is disabled and the gentleman was only too happy to place us as close to the shower block and facilities as he could. With its winning combination of world class heritage, attractions, culture, entertainment, shopping and eating out, Edinburgh buzzes with excitement twelve months of the year.įrom the first phone call (which felt welcomed than an imposition or unwanted interruption) nothing was too much trouble. Head to the bottom of the famous Royal Mile and you’ll find the Palace of Holyroodhouse, the ultra modern Scottish Parliament building and Arthur’s Seat, an imposing peak in Holyrood Park with sweeping views, as does the iconic and much photographed Calton Hill.Įdinburgh is also thee Festival city and home to the largest arts festival in the world – with the Edinburgh Festival, Fringe, Book and Film Festivals, the Royal Military Tattoo, Storytelling Festival and Hogmanay being just some of the world class events that take place in Edinburgh, there is always something to keep you entertained and enthralled throughout the year. Capital city, Festival city and UNESCO World Heritage site – Edinburgh really does live up to its reputation as one of the best cities in the world.Ĭompact and hilly, Edinburgh has a medieval Old Town and elegant Georgian New Town and standing high above Scotland’s capital is of course Edinburgh Castle, home to Scotland’s crown jewels and the Stone of Destiny.
