Cow cuddling with Münsterland picnic box

Owner Britta is firmly rooted in the Münsterland region: life at Haus Visbeck has characterised her for over 20 years. Her Dexter cattle are her personal favourite project. The trusting animals are at the centre of a special experience: cuddling cows in the pasture. Britta accompanies the encounter with great sensitivity for people and animals, explains the behaviour of the animals and creates a safe space for slowing down. Afterwards, there is a delicious Münsterland picnic with regional products and non-alcoholic drinks! The picnic box (for two people) from Dülmen Marketing e.V. is also available as a vegetarian option on request.

Cow cuddling with Münsterland picnic box

Britta is firmly rooted in the Münsterland region. She has been shaping life at Haus Visbeck for over twenty years - with a great passion for the historic estate, for animals, nature and what constitutes THE GOOD LIFE in Münsterland: peace, mindfulness and genuine warmth. Her Dexter cattle are a personal project close to her heart. The frugal, trusting animals reflect her values and are at the centre of a very special experience.
When cuddling cows at Haus Visbeck, this deep connection between humans and animals becomes tangible for everyone. A quiet, almost meditative atmosphere is created in the middle of the pasture. The gentle cattle allow closeness and trust - and invite you to consciously experience the moment. Britta accompanies the encounter with a great deal of experience and sensitivity for people and animals, explains the behaviour of the animals and creates a safe space for slowing down. Afterwards, she offers a delicious Münsterland picnic.
The picnic consists of the popular picnic box (for two people each) from Dülmen Marketing e.V. and includes regional products. Vegetarian options available on request. Non-alcoholic drinks are also available.
