Meet The Coos Private Tour

This private, hands-on tour is for up to 6 people, and it’s the only tour where you get to see all the animals here at Dumble Farm.

 

Guests are driven around the farm in the comfort of our 7 seat Land Rover Discovery by one of the farmers, Will, James or Fi, who will provide you with a unique opportunity to find out what life is like for a Hull Valley farmer.

 

Learn about our history and conservation project, plus of course meet lots of our furry four legged friends!

 

After your introduction talk and safety briefing the tour will start with meeting some of our super cute fluffy Highland calves here at the farm.

 

Next our guests will be taken in the land rover to get up close to our main Highland fold with their young calves (depending on the time of year), with an opportunity to feed them. The cows love to come up to the car and poke their noses through the window so we can give them snacks.

 

You can find out all about these striking cows with their characterful personalities and see in action the positive environmental role that grass-fed livestock plays in increasing biodiversity.

 

We will drive through our wet grassland area that attracts many overwintering wading birds, to see how we are developing habitats for these declining species, hear about the history of the area and the way the farm has changed over time.

 

Then onto the cuddle cow field, where you’ll be able to meet these gentle giants, before been driven through our wildflower fields to the ‘water and woodland’ area, here we are creating a mosaic of habitats, which attracts a variety of insects, birds, amphibians and flora, dependent on the time of year. 

 

Then we head back to the farm to meet our fussy goats.

 

We finish off with tea/coffee and Farmer Fi’s  home baked cakes, made with many ingredients grown here on the farm. There is plenty of time while you have a brew, to have a friendly chat with the Dumble Farm farmers, who will be happy to answer any of your questions about the cows, conservation or their farming lives here in East Yorkshire.
