Sheep flock to Les Cotils...

Friday 25 May 2018

Les Cotils Christian Centre now has a flock of sheep in its grounds, to help keep the grass cut, and also add to the natural beauty of the place.

Owned by a local farmer, the centre is using its 11 acres of land for the flock of 14 ewes and 28 lambs to graze on.

Fiona Naftel, Managing Director of Les Cotils, said: "They came about really because we had lots of grazing land that we wanted to put to use. We have had them for about two weeks now and its really nice to have them around.

"We have had quite a few visitors commenting on how nice it is to have livestock on the grounds. I think ideally we would like to keep them around, though they are owned by a local farmer - Jason Niles - so it is his choice. I think it is really part of what the Cotils is like."

Ms Naftel said they were happy to keep the flock, though it was the farmer's decision as to how long they would stay at Les Cotils.
