Farm Shop Family Barbecue
It’s officially BBQ season but if you’re more of a back seat griller and prefer someone else doing the cooking then pop along to Hopetoun Farm Shop for their annual summer BBQ.

Explore the links between three of West Lothian's most historic sites with a guided walk between Hopetoun, Blackness Castle and the House of the Binns. Enjoy a lovely summer's walk, spot local wildlife and hear about these three places of interest with your guides from The National Trust, Historic Scotland and Hopetoun Ranger Services.
The Gillespie Macandrew Horse Trials offer a host of activities each day including Shetland Grand National, Pony Club Games and Jumping, British Show jumping Competitions, Lurcher racing and an array of shopping trade stands. The event is a great chance to see some of the country's top riders competing at Hopetoun.
Bring the kids along to this fun deer themed guided walk. Take part in games and activities along the way and top it all off with a visit to meet the Hopetoun red deer herd. Meet at the main visitor car park.
The team at Hopetoun Farm Shop needs your help to choose a brand new ice cream flavour for the farm shop. We'll provide the spoons!
