What customers say
Top spot for a quiet, secluded woodland stay. Friendly hosts, clean loos, great country views. Good for families & dogs, with cosy fire pits. Carry gear in, a bit more water would be nice, but everyone loved it and wants to come back!

From the manager: Thanks, Auli, for the great review. Look forward to having you back!
Lovely site, good pitches, and friendly owner.
Pondwood unpowered forest floor tent site (four person)
Liked We liked that the campsite was small, with only 5 sites, with plenty of space inbetween, and surrounded by trees. There was a nice communal fireplace, and the site was isolated enough to feel like wild camping. There was a composting toilet, with a sink at the side to wash hands and dishes.
Disliked Be prepared to hike gear into the site from the car park, although wheel barrows are provided. Also, be aware that there is a railway line nearby, so you will hear trains. Not really dislikes, but worth a mention.

From the manager: Thanks for the lovely comments. We deliberately try to keep the nearly wild feeling by asking people to park away from the site, but also, as a working farm it can be quite busy at certain times.
Would definitely go back and certainly recommend.
Pondwood unpowered forest floor tent site (four person)
Liked Great little site that is exactly as described, as close to wild camping as you get without fully wild camping. Great communication from hosts who were really friendly and helpful.
Kids (10, 8, 6 and 5) all loved it and the dog enjoyed himself too!

From the manager: Thank you for a great review and hope the Park Run went well.
Brillant woodland wild campsite.
Solo tents and Hammocks unpowered forest floor tent site (solo)
Liked 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.

Liked Lovely facilities with cute messages on the wall.
Clean campsite.
Lovely views.
Very close to shops etc.
Lovely family and great service.
Disliked Could be more accessible by car.
Could have at least one shower but not a huge negative.
Could perhaps have WiFi however, I didnt asked when we stayed
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: 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.
