Dogs are welcome but must be kept on a lead and under control on the farm as there are other dogs and animals living on the farm. Please don’t leave your dog unattended in the property for long periods of time. Distressed dogs bark and whine and this creates anxiety amongst the other farm animals. Any dog mess must be cleared up immediately.
