Dear Dorothy,

Many thanks for a delightful tour in glorious sunshine.

Thanks too for a lovely lunch and great company.

I would certainly recommend this tour to anybody, the delight in seeing Water Buffalo up front and the very informative history of Macroom Buffalo Farm producing great Buffalo Mozzarella, etc,

Sincerely,

Anne Lee,

BOB & FRIENDS , USA

Dorothy,

We just have to let you know

how much we enjoyed meeting you and learning about the buffalo farm. You may not remember us but

we were part of the Murray, Piros, and Kropp group from Georgia and North Carolina, USA.

We visited you on the 14th of September 2022.

Your tour was unquestionably 

the highlight of our 10-day visit to Ireland.

We had some phenomenal tours including exploring the wonderful and historic Dublin city, golfing at Old Head, Falconry in Co Kerry, and a

private cruise off the Dingle Peninsula.

Your Culinary treats were out of this world. We can't stop telling our friends that they need to visit you when

they travel to Ireland.

Thanks for the most memorable

and special time we spent in Ireland....

and that is saying a lot

Our pictures will follow.

Thanks so much again!

Hope to visit again in the future!

Best of Luck to you and the farm

Bob, Kim, George, Susan, Bill and Tina.

Good morning Dorothy,

Many thanks for your kind words. We had a fabulous trip yesterday. The girls and I were blown away with your passion and enthusiasm for the enterprise. Such a magnificent business. We had Open Evening at our school last night. Clare and I spoke highly of our field trip to your plant yesterday.

Wishing you all the very best of luck for the season ahead.

We will organise another visit next year.

Have a lovely weekend.

Kind regards,
