A Furry Favourite Returns to Saltire Estate in 2025!

The Highland Games Hunter Valley is back in 2025, and alongside the pipes, dancing, and stone throws, one beloved attraction is making a highly anticipated return - the Highland coos. These iconic Scottish cattle will once again roam the grounds of Saltire Estate, offering visitors a chance to meet these gentle, shaggy animals up close.

Known for their long horns, thick woolly coats, and calm temperament, Highland coos have become a crowd favourite at the games. Whether you’re bringing the family or exploring with friends, a visit to the coos’ paddock is a must. They’re friendly, photogenic, and a perfect symbol of the Scottish spirit at the heart of the event.

Set against the scenic backdrop of Saltire Estate’s vineyards, the Highland coos add a rustic charm that makes the day even more memorable. While you’re here, take a break at our cellar door for a wine tasting or a glass of your favourite drop. With live music, local food, and traditional festivities happening all around, there’s plenty to see, sip, and enjoy.

The Highland Games Hunter Valley is more than just an event - it’s a celebration of culture, community, and connection. And the coos are right at the centre of it.

Join us at Saltire Estate to meet the Highland coos and experience the charm of Scotland in the heart of wine country. Get your tickets now for the 2025 Highland Games Hunter Valley!
