If you're looking for a true Irish experience look no further. Glenshane Country Farm was amazing. I learned so much about sheep farming, saw the skills of the adorable sheep dogs, and got to hold a sheep! I would 100% recommend this stop to anyone coming to Northern Ireland and will definitely come back if I ever venture this way again.
