Summary: We had a great time visiting Errichel Farm! During our visit, we went on a farm tour and ate brunch at their bistro (Thyme Bistro). It is easy to find off the main road and the lady behind the counter was very friendly. We very much enjoyed learning about their sheep, pigs, horses, and various birds. We watched the pigs being fed and got to feed the birds ourselves. We also got to meet a lamb and one of our group got to bottle feed it. Our meal at Thyme Bistro was decent and was a nice follow up to the farm tour. It is worth a visit if you're in Perthshire!

Summary: We spent the morning with Becky, the lovely co-owner of the farm. She was absolutely fantastic with the kids and created a fun, hands-on, and educational experience. We got to feed and meet the residents of the farm: Peacocks, ducks, geese, chickens, horses, pigs, and more. We ended up with a nice brunch at the bistro. Absolutely recommend.
