Cleghorn Farm

A aimé : Quiet, near wild campsite, with friendly welcoming hosts, large communal open campfire and great views. Highly recommended!
Wee walk from car park to pitches, but easy with the provided wheelbarrows.
Few minutes drive to the town of Lanark, so plenty of shops available.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for your kind words. Because of the nature of the site and the fact that we are a working farm with children and animals, as well as tractors, etc, we deliberately limit the amount of traffic beyond the car park. We know it's a bit of a walk and do offer a quadbike service if people have lots of stuff. Showers are first on our list of wants, too! Thank you for leaving the place so tidy.

A aimé : I've stayed in various cabins with my dog in Scotland and this one is the best I've stayed in by a million miles. Fab cabin, friendly check-in, beautiful big farm with long entrance road with fields of sheep and horses, plus agricultural fields you can walk round the edges of. There's a map in the cabin showing various walks around the farm.It's a bit of a trek from the farm buildings to the cabin but the pay off is total peace with no neighbours! No randoms staying in a next door cabin, just wildlife, sheep and horses. The main train line runs close by but it's no issue the trains are infrequent, you can see them in the distance from the tip top sawdust toilet. The cabin is big and well equipped with the log stove to heat up drinks or food. Decking outside with a great sink unit plus another fire. Total bliss, a slice of heaven in central Scotland. Me and my dog had the best time. Thanks

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for such a lovely review and glad that you had a lovely time.

A aimé : Gorgeous rustic, secluded and tranquil stay. The cabin is basic in keeping with the owner’s description. The stove heats up the cabin super cosy and extra blankets are provided for when the fire runs cold.

N'a pas aimé: Bring your own wood. We felt the amount of wood for the price did not equate. We recommend bringing your own. Only side plates provided so if you need dinner plates bring your own.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Hello and thank you for your review. Glad you enjoyed your stay.
Sorry that you didn't feel you got value for money for the wood. The wood we sell is stuff we bring in from trees that fall around the farm. We process it all ourselves and people are welcome to bring their own.
Point taken about the crockery!

A aimé : The location of this camp site was almost perfect. very basic. just a toilet. woodland area quite for the most part. just far enough of the beaten path. friendly owners very helpful.

N'a pas aimé: no so much dislikes and point of reference. road in is a farm track gravel ok for cars not so much for motorbikes but manageable.
this site is more geared up for the solo back packer than the family or biker (no parking near your pitch )camper as there is a little rustic walk to the actual camp area. one the plus they do provide wheel barrows. pack light if you want to stop here.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi Mark,
Thanks for your review and kind words about the site.
We are trying to keep it deliberately "nearly wild" partly to avoid any issues with farm traffic but also to limit damage to the road which, as you will have noticed, really doesn't like lots of rain!
Thanks again and hope you enjoyed your onward journey.

A aimé : Not crowded
Family friendly
Being cozy and relaxing

N'a pas aimé: Toilet services and manual water pump can be improved

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thanks for your review, Omid. I'm glad that you all had a relaxing time. Our toilet facilities are very basic as we are trying to have a minimal impact on the land. We appreciate your feedback and are always trying to improve what we offer. The weekend you were here was our busiest yet and it was interesting to see what the site could cope with!

A aimé : Very quiet and very chilled out which was what we were looking for

N'a pas aimé: Bit of a walk to get to the camp

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for your review, Lorraine. The walk up to the site is unavoidable due to our need to keep the traffic around the farm to a minimum but thanks for your feedback.
