The fold

---

Clementine first arrived here in 2024 alongside a Black Angus named Daisy, who now roams the property with the rest of the Angus herd. From the moment she arrived, Clementine made it very clear that she intended to be in charge.

As the matriarch, she’s known for being a little bossy and wonderfully stubborn, always keeping an eye on what’s happening around the farm and making sure the fold follows her lead. Despite her strong personality, Clementine has a very gentle side once she gets to know you. She enjoys attention on her own terms, loves a good scratch, and will never say no to a handful of carrots. With her calm confidence and unmistakable presence, she’s become one of the true characters of the property.

Winnie is Bonnie’s half-sister, sharing the same sire, and her pedigree is made up entirely of imported bloodlines. She carries plenty of natural Scottish character, with all the charm, style, and personality that Highland cattle are so loved for. Her striking features and confident nature make her a standout in the fold.

Winnie definitely has a sassy streak and isn’t afraid to let her opinions be known, but underneath it all she’s incredibly friendly and enjoys being around people. She loves a good brisket scratch, is fully halter trained, and is always one of the first to wander over for attention. Like any Highland with good taste, her absolute favourite treat is a lucerne cube — and she’ll happily remind you if she thinks it’s snack time.

Bonnie is Winnie’s half-sister, and together they came from highly respected breeders within the Highland community. They share the same sire, while Bonnie’s dam line traces back to a long lineage of prestigious purebred breeders, giving her both exceptional bloodlines and classic Highland character.

Bonnie has a beautifully gentle nature and absolutely loves being around people. She’s always happy to stop for a pat or cuddle, enjoys being brushed, and is fully halter trained. Calm, affectionate, and easygoing, Bonnie has a quiet confidence about her that makes her a favourite with visitors. She’s the kind of cow who enjoys simply being part of whatever is going on.

 Delilah and Tallulah are sisters who, sadly, experienced mistreatment in their previous lives. Because of this, they can still be a little wary and standoffish around people, but with time, patience, and gentle care, they continue to grow in confidence every day.

Despite her cautious nature, Delilah is impossible to miss — she proudly sports the best dossan (fringe) in the fold, with a wonderfully wild Highland look that perfectly matches her personality. Together, the sisters are a quiet reminder of how resilient and deserving these beautiful animals are.

Tallulah (on the right) arrived here alongside her sister, Delilah. After experiencing a difficult start in life, she can still be a little cautious around people, but each day she grows more comfortable in her surroundings.

With patience, kindness, and the company of the fold, Tallulah is slowly learning to trust and settle into farm life. It’s been incredibly rewarding to watch both sisters become more relaxed, curious, and confident as they realise they are finally safe and cared for.

 Wilma came to us from our neighbour’s farm when they were no longer able to keep her, and she has settled in beautifully. Although she’s a Highland, she was disbudded as a calf, so she doesn’t have the traditional horns — but she more than makes up for it with her big personality.

Having been hand-raised, Wilma is incredibly people-friendly and still carries the playful, joyful spirit of a calf. She’s often seen racing around the paddock, bucking and jumping with excitement — especially when she knows food is on the way. Her happy nature and cheeky energy make her impossible not to love.

Morag is a sweet-natured young Highland heifer with a gentle, curious personality. She’s still settling in here but she's an absolute delight and is quickly becoming a favourite around here. She has a lovely, balanced frame with a long body and a soft, feminine look, but it’s her friendly nature that really stands out. Morag is the kind of girl who makes spending time in the paddock just that little bit more special.
