The Alpaca Barn Clyde Valley Reviews

Linsey

Really enjoyed everything about our stay. It is fabulous for dogs. My 2 collies had a great time. The cabins are immaculate and cosy and so peaceful. I'll definitely be booking again

Colin

An excellent site. The Alpaca Barn was comfortable, clean, cosy and well-equipped. The hot tub was brilliant. A good position for visiting local places, and both Glasgow and Edinburgh were reachable with ease. Beautiful countryside. A lovely working farm.

Margaret

Fantastic location for any one with a dog. So peaceful and quiet with beautiful walks nearby for you and your four legged companion.

Liz

I have now stayed 3 times and I absolutely love the whole experience. The cabin is always spotlessly clean with everything needed for a restful and relaxing time away. One of the bonuses is that my dog is as welcome as me and there are areas for all the dogs to run freely and safely. She absolutely loves it which makes my stay all the more happy.

Tina

The lodge was extremely clean, comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals. The hot tub was wonderful. The enclosed garden was a huge bonus as we could leave the door open for the dogs to roam. The separate utility unit, with a washing machine & dry room was really useful. Tom was quick to respond to our request for helpRead more with a heating issue. We enjoyed some fantastic trips out, but relaxing in the lodge & grounds was a treat also. Hide

Everything was absolutely perfect. The cabn was spotlessly clean and had everthing I needed and more. The welcome pack of fresh milk, lovely biscuits and treats for my wee dog too.

Susan

What an amazing place, beautiful cabin , immaculate and gorgeous surroundings..

David

This was our first time away as a family with our 7 week old baby and dog, everything was absolutely perfect and just what we were looking for. Cottage was spotless, the wee garden was ideal for the dog and the hot tub was amazing! We will definitely be back, hopefully for longer next time.

Andrew

Excellent place to stay. Everything you need is inside and all really easy to use. Fabulous walks for the dog as well as a secure play field.

Andrew

Excellent accommodation, in an excellent location. We had our dog with us and the fenced area around the property was great for him to wander in and out from without any worries for us, especially when we were in the hot tub. Tom and Sarah are excellent hosts and we would highly recommend staying here. We'll be back!

Sonia

Had a fantastic few days at the Alpaca barn with our lab. The house was lovely, plenty of space, clean and comfortable. Great having the enclosed garden to be able to let the dog out in the morning. Lovely forest walk direct from the cottage and great to have the exercise field too. Biggar is a nice wee town with a selection of coffee shops and nicRead moree pub. Lovely pet shop too - we got some nice chews to occupy the dog while we were in the hot tub! Hide

We cant recommend this cottage highly enough, everything was spotlessly clean. The bed was super comfy as were the armchairs. Sarah was very helpful with any questions.

A lovely weekend with our doggos in a super dog friendly cabin, surrounded by gorgeous countryside. Really comfortable, cosy, and well equipped, with plenty of space for our dogs own day beds and their crates, both sleep better overnight when in their crates do having space for these was fab.

Amazing and well equipped cottage with an amazing view! Highly recommended

William

We stayed in the Alpaca barn and had our 4 dogs with us . This place is so lovely and so peaceful. The owners have really thought of everything to make it an enjoyable stay - from dog treats and poo bags to fresh milk in the fridge for your arrival. There also treats in the form of locally baked biscuits , for the humans lol. The garden is fully en closed , and you have great views all around . There was a "smart TV" in the lounge and the free wi-fi is very fast . Highly recommend

Alex

Beautiful views and a really lovely place. Cottage was extremely clean and had everything needed to make our stay comfortable. Great place to take dogs to. Owners were friendly and extremely helpful. Will definitely be back!
