Hairy Coo Encounters

Hairy Coo Encounters

Welcome to Hairy Coo Encounters, a unique experience brought to you by Andrew and Lorna Prentice, and daughter Kelsie. Our passion for Highland Cattle and traditional Scottish Blackface sheep is at the heart of everything we do. We offer visitors the chance to get up close and personal with their magnificent ‘Hairy Coos’ in the beautiful setting of the Isle of Arran. We are proud to be the only Pedigree registered fold on the Isle of Arran through the Highland Cattle Society. Our dedication to breeding quality Highland Cattle has been recognised with success at the Highland Cattle show & sale held in Oban, and at the local Farmers Show, recognising our commitment to preserving and promoting the Highland breed. Come and experience the magic of Maol Fold! Our visitor encounters offer the opportunity to interact directly with our gentle 'Hairy Coos'. Learn about their history, their unique haracteristics, and their role in the Scottish Highlands. This is an unforgettable hands on experience for animal lovers of all ages. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to meet our 'Hairy Coos'! Book your encounter today by contacting us via social media:
