The cottage is very deceiving and is really spacious and planned out. Bed is big and very comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need and the milk from the local dairy is delicious
Heather
Travelling with dogs is sometimes troublesome, but NOT here! Throws for sofas, hooks outside in porch for leads, enclosed garden space. Woods to wander in. Cabins well equiped, warm and clean. Although there were a few cabins occupied we never heard anyone. Each has a private hot tub - should you wish. On a working farm so fresh eggs & milk availabRead morele. We cant say just how much we enjoyed our stay. Such a beautiful relaxing place to spend time. Hide

Fiona
The cottage was so lovely and cosy and well thought out. Everything was easy to use ,the hot tub was great and it was very dog friendly. We came home feeling very relaxed
George
The cabin for its size was very comfortable. No room for bedside table at side of beds but it wasnt a great problem. Small induction hob, no washing machine. Great shower room. Only one tiny mirror but worked out that it was because in was a timber cabin (we were on holiday once before and the sun shining on a mirror started a small fire on a veluxRead more window). So perhaps its because of safety regs. Great peace and tranquillity. Just what we needed Good fields to exercise ones dogs Hide
Calum
The huts were exactly as described, even better as very spacious inside, with lots of thoughtful touches. Huts were exceptionally clean. Setting of hut was in a very peaceful location so lovely to sit outside reading with a glass of wine. Secure dog field was fantastic to let our cocker spaniels off for a run, best dog friendly accommodation we havRead moree found so we will be back! Hide
Elizabeth
The lodges are small but perfectly formed. There is everything you need. The enclosed garden kept the dogs safe, we used the hot tub every evening. The surrounding countryside was beautiful and the dogs loved the walks in the forest. With the Scottish weather the drying room was very useful. We will return.

We had a lovely long weekend The Sheeps Pen. Owners were very welcoming and informative and gave us lots of pointers for the surrounding area. Cabin was clean with lots of little personal touches that made us feel really at home. It was warm inside and our dogs loved lounging around and relaxing while we took a dip in the wonderful hot tub. I honesRead moretly can say it was such a relaxing get away and so worth the five hour journey to get there. We really hope to come back soon! Hide
Catherine
We really enjoyed our stay, we didnt go sightseeing as we had planned to just stay & relax there which we done, it was so peaceful. The hot tub was an added bonus, the dogs loved to run around the enclosed garden area. The welcome pack was a lovely touch. We loved the hobbit style of the lodge cabin. We will definitely be back.

Really lovely wee cottage. Everything in a high condition and extremely cosy. Unfortunately the weather didn't allow for full use of the hot tub as it was too stormy outside but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come back again.

We had the most relaxing stay at Bowmuir Farm holidays. Its so quiet and peaceful. The sheep house is lovely, we especially enjoyed the view from our hot tub when the sun set. Our Dog and little boy loved the garden to run about in and we loved how it was all fenced off and the gate was dog and baby proof :-) We enjoyed our morning walks through SaRead moremmys woods and visiting the alpacas at the end of the drive too! Everything has been thought of and the cabins have been done up so lovely! Hide
