Weโve been lucky enough to share Bosinver with hundreds and hundreds of families over the past 25 years, and if thereโs one thing that we know for sure, itโs that our guests absolutely love animal feeding in the mornings! Youโll note weโve not just said the children either; thereโs something about having a cheeky sheep or goat eating from your hand that brings a smile to guests of all ages.
Letโs tell you a little be more about how it works during your holidayโฆ
When is animal feeding?
Weโre going to let you in on a little secret; our farm animals are up for being fed most of the time, which is why we run our sessions at 9.30am every morning of the week. The great news with this is that it doesnโt matter what day you arrive, or how long youโre staying for, youโre going to get a go!
How many goes? You can come once, twice, three times, or if youโre like many of our guests, start every day of your holiday with animal feeding! Itโs completely up to youโฆ itโs your holiday after all!
Where is animal feeding?
Worried youโll have to walk miles? Think again; our animals are in a central location, so just a short walk from any of our cottages. Whilst theyโre not into sharing their food too much, one thing they will share is the incredible views across the valley. If youโre looking for a holiday thatโs in gorgeous countryside, then youโll have a moment when you realise youโre hand-feeding a sheep in one of the most magical places youโll visit.
Which animals will you be feeding?
Weโre referring to โanimalsโ a lot, arenโt we? So, whoโs in the gang? A great place to start is with the cockerel, who very much rules the roost over our hens. You might have seen his cock-a-doodle-do on social media and that sound very much means that animal feeding is starting. Then thereโs the ducks, the sheep, the cheekiest of goatsโฆ. and of course, the chance to grab your very own egg from the chickens for breakfast!
Confidence for kids
If your children arenโt confident or familiar with farm animals, then this is still a great activity for you. From the chickens to the goats, theyโre all incredibly good with children and are used to being around them. Let Farmer Dave or Paul know when you arrive and theyโll make sure you have an awesome experience.
