Lace up your boots and ditch the city grid for the green kind at Oban Historical Guest Farm! Our nature walks are the perfect antidote to digital overload. Breathe in the fresh air, listen to the symphony of birdsong (conducted, of course, by our resident rooster), and keep an eye out for our resident dassies who may or may not be stockpiling roots for the coming apocalypse (just a hunch). You might even spot some majestic wildlife… or at least some very interesting-looking cow pies.
Channel your inner Lewis and Clark (minus the pesky paperwork) with a canoeing adventure at Oban Historical Guest Farm! Glide across our scenic dam, soaking up the tranquility (and keeping an eye out for any rogue ducks who may challenge you to a race… they’re surprisingly competitive). It’s the perfect way to explore the beauty of the farm from a different perspective. Just remember, sunscreen is your friend, and so is a waterproof phone case (because let’s face it, capturing those majestic duck races is a must).
Cast your line and lure in some serenity (and maybe a few fish) at Oban Historical Guest Farm! Our scenic dam is teeming with feisty fighters (well, maybe not that feisty) just waiting to be caught… and then gently released, of course. It’s a catch-and-release program, so the only thing you’ll be taking home are bragging rights (and maybe a few funny stories about the one that got away… or the one that stole your bait and swam off with a mischievous glint in its eye).
Make a splash and wash away your worries (literally) with a swim at Oban Historical Guest Farm! Our spring-fed dam is the perfect place to cool off on a hot day. Just be sure to pack your swimsuit (and maybe a pool noodle for some impromptu jousting with the resident ducks – they’re surprisingly competitive). Remember, relaxation is key, so float your cares away and enjoy the tranquility.
Saddle up for some four-legged fun (and maybe a few laughs) with our horses and donkeys at Oban Historical Guest Farm! These gentle giants are always up for a good cuddle (just watch out for the occasional donkey who might mistake your hat for a tasty snack). Whether the kiddos have ridden before or not, our friendly staff will help you get acquainted with these charming creatures. It’s the perfect opportunity to create memories that’ll last a lifetime (and maybe a few photos of you accidentally ending up on the wrong end of a donkey’s hilarious affection… don’t worry, they’re all laughs and kisses… usually).
Unleash your inner ornithologist (without the fancy hat, binoculars are optional) at Oban Historical Guest Farm! Our farm is a haven for feathered friends, from the chatty crows who seem to have an endless supply of gossip to the shy owls who hoot cryptic messages at dusk (just don’t take it personally if they judge your birdwatching skills… they can be a bit snooty). So grab a seat on the veranda, grab a cup of coffee (or a handful of birdseed, if you’re feeling adventurous), and prepare to be entertained by nature’s own feathered circus (just be warned, the weavers have a thing for dive-bombing unsuspecting guests with crumbs… all part of the charm, right?).
Charge your camera (and your sense of humor) for an unforgettable photographic adventure at Oban Historical Guest Farm! Our farm is a feast for the lens, from the majestic mountains (perfect backdrop for your next “conquering the wilderness” pose… even if the biggest challenge is that rogue chicken) to the playful geese who might photobomb your sunrise shot (hey, they just really want their modeling careers to take off!). So unleash your inner Ansel Adams (wildlife photography skills optional) and capture memories that’ll make your Instagram followers jealous (just be sure to tag us… and maybe give our resident donkey, Bella, some credit if she ends up stealing the show with his unexpected close-ups).
