Watch skilled working sheepdogs in action during interactive demonstrations on a traditional Highland organic farm with Scottish Blackface sheep and Luing cattle.

Lurgan Farm offers visitors a unique opportunity to experience authentic farm life in the Highland Perthshire hills above Aberfeldy. Run by Ann and Gert alongside their young children, this traditional organic hill farm welcomes guests to witness the partnership between shepherd and working dog through engaging sheepdog demonstrations. Visitors watch the dogs in action, learn about training methods, and gain insight into the skill and teamwork required in modern farming. The farm features a flock of hardy Scottish Blackface sheep, a herd of Luing cattle, and a team of skilled working dogs. Demonstrations are organized in one of the bottom fields near the main road for easy access, providing a close-up, practical experience that differs from typical tourist attractions. The venue also offers a highland calf bottle-feeding experience for families. Lurgan Farm is suitable for families, local visitors, and anyone interested in seeing working dogs and learning about traditional farming practices. The experience provides an honest, hands-on introduction to farm life and the seasonal rhythms that define Highland farming. Booking is required for all demonstrations.
