The Chillingham cattle are said to be the only survivors of the wild herds which once roamed freely through the forests of Great Britain. Today they live in a beautiful enclosed 365 acre parkland at Chillingham in Northumberland which has been their home since the 13th century. In the summer of 2009 the herd numbered 85 animals.
Chillingham Park has stunning views across Northumberland and is a beautiful place to visit at any time of year. Visitors are invited to walk in the parkland escorted by the warden on a tour which shows the scenery and the wild cattle at their very best. The warden will take you close to the cattle and tell you about their history, day to day life in the parkland and how the herd structures itself.
