Nestled in the heart of southern Scotland, this unique experience takes place on a busy working beef and sheep farm located within the stunning 600-acre Kirkwood Estate. Just south of Lockerbie, between Dumfries and Gretna Green, this estate has been farmed by six generations of the Steel family since 1865.
