A couple decided to mix up their dating game by going to a local farm - and taking goats on a walk.

Rebecca Baty, 35, and Andy Murray, 36, both from Newcastle, were looking for new dating ideas when they came across the fun activity.

Rebecca, a social media coordinator, had heard about Ouseburn farm's goat walking through a newsletter and decided to give it a go.

She said: "I’ve always loved animals and the farm. It’s a lovely community organisation."

"We go there quite regularly and when we read about the goat walking, we thought it would be a fun thing to do as a couple."

Rebecca and Andy took three goats named Jerome, Robbie and Sonny for a half an hour walk around the farm.

Whilst they both had fun, It was fair to say the goats weren't the easiest to control at times

Rebecca said: "I think you can definitely see from the video that the boys were a little bit sassy to say the least."

Ouseburn farm is a small local charity located in a valley just outside Newcastle.

The farm work with adults with additional needs and provides a space for everyone in the community to learn about farming, nature and animals.

Rebecca said: "The farm is completely free for anyone to go and visit"

"It's great for adults with special needs so they can learn new skills and build up their confidence."

"It's a great day for everyone of all different ages, as a date, as a family or even like a work team building day."
