Welcome

Gloagburn is a farm shop and coffee shop on the Niven family's farm at Tibbermore, just west of Perth and a short hop off the A9.

Ian and Alison Niven, third-generation farmers, opened it in 2003, and it has grown to take in its own butchery, bakery and gift shop. The farm's own beef and pork, free-range eggs and oatmeal sit beside award-winning sausages, and the oatcakes baked here are the shop's bestseller. The big coffee shop makes everything by hand, from breakfast at half past eight to soups, sandwiches and home baking at lunch, with afternoon tea from half past two. Children can let off steam in the farm park, with a zip wire, ride-on tractors and a duck pond to feed, and highland cows, sheep, pigs and hens out in the fields through spring and summer. Dogs are welcome in the heated huts outside, the whole place is on one level, and it's open every day.
