An unforgettable Highland cow experience at Jacksons at Jedburgh in the Scottish Borders.
If you’re looking for a unique thing to do in the Scottish Borders, our Highland Cow Experience at Jacksons at Jedburgh is one you won’t forget.
Set in the rolling countryside just outside Jedburgh, this is your chance to meet our much-loved Highland cows (or coos, as we call them 
) up close – not from behind a fence, but right there in the field with them.
Highland cows are one of Scotland’s most iconic breeds, known for their long, shaggy coats and impressive horns. They’re a hardy breed, perfectly adapted to the rugged Scottish landscape. At Jacksons at Jedburgh you can get a firsthand look at these fascinating creatures.
During your visit, you’ll have the chance to interact with the cows, feed them, and take plenty of photos. We’ll be on hand to answer any questions you might have, and to share their knowledge and passion for these amazing animals.
Durng your visit, you’ll:
- Take a scenic trailer ride through the farm
- Meet our Highland cows up close in their field
- Learn about their personalities, behaviour and life on the farm
- Get the chance to feed them and take photos (lots of them!)
It’s relaxed, hands-on and completely different from a typical “petting farm” experience.
But that’s not all that Jacksons has to offer. We also have a range of other animals, including pigs, goats, chickens and sheep. With plenty of space to explore and play, it’s the perfect for both a couples outing and a family day out.
Why We Love Our ‘Coos’ (And Think You Will Too)
There’s something about Highland cows that people instantly connect with.
They’re calm, curious and full of character – and every single one has their own personality. Some are bold and come straight over, others hang back a little (until food appears… then suddenly everyone’s your best friend 😄).
For us, they’re a huge part of everyday farm life – and sharing that with visitors is one of the best parts of what we do.
Supercharge that phone – you’ll need the battery for all the pictures you’ll want to take during your visit.
