点评:We stayed two nights in the large family home at Glenshane Country Farm
, and it was immaculate—spotless, spacious, and so comfortable that we wished we could have stayed longer.
What sets this stay apart is Jamese's passion for his craft. It wasn't just a tour; it was a fascinating look at the skill and craftsmanship behind a working sheep farm. Jamese is an engaging teacher who clearly loves sharing the history of his family's farm. Watching him work with his incredibly skilled dogs was a masterclass in handling, and we loved getting 'up close and personal' with the different sheep breeds they keep as pets. We even got to hold baby lambs and see the traditional tools used for shearing.
To top it all off, we enjoyed a delicious, homemade lunch prepared by the family using locally sourced ingredients. Dining in their beautiful, scenic area was the perfect end to our visit. We also fell in love with their dog, Boss—if he could have fit in our suitcase, he might have just come home with us!
What surprised me even more was that all experiences are private, with no large crowds or squeezing around people to get a good look at the demo. Just your group! Whether you stay the night or just visit for the experience, this is a must-do in Northern Ireland. We would recommend it to everyone!
翻译:我们在格伦沙恩乡村农场(Glenshane Country Farm)那栋宽敞的家庭住宅里住了两晚。
房子一尘不染,宽敞舒适,我们真希望可以多住几天。
这次住宿体验最特别之处在于主人詹姆斯(Jamese)对农场的热情。这不仅仅是一次参观,更是一次深入了解绵羊农场背后技艺和匠心的奇妙之旅。詹姆斯是一位风趣幽默的老师,他显然非常乐于分享自家农场的历史。观看他与他那几只技艺精湛的牧羊犬一起工作,简直就是一堂精彩的驯羊课。我们也很喜欢近距离接触他们饲养的各种绵羊品种。我们甚至还抱了抱小羊羔,看到了传统的剪羊毛工具。
更令人惊喜的是,我们还享用了一顿由农场主人用当地食材精心烹制的美味午餐。在风景如画的农场用餐,为我们的旅程画上了完美的句号。我们还爱上了他们的狗狗博斯(Boss)——如果它能装进我们的行李箱,我们真想把它带回家!
更让我惊喜的是,所有体验都是私密的,没有拥挤的人群,也不用为了看演示而挤来挤去。只有你们一行人!无论你是选择过夜还是仅仅体验一番,这都是北爱尔兰不容错过的景点。我们强烈推荐给大家!
