We had a fantastic week here surrounded by the beautiful scenery. Plenty of space for all the family and all the amenities we needed. Local shop was brilliant for picking up a few last minute supplies. We can’t wait to return.

We had a brilliant stay, the farm house was perfect for us. Lovely layout, great location, and just what we needed for a Christmas break. Local amenities are a little lacking, especially as the local pub / restaurant is closed until Feb/March. But the local shop was good for any immediate needs. We wanted to get away from it all, Inverglen Farm certainly did that for us. We would absolutely stay again

This was the first family holiday in many many years and it more than delivered for us. We are a family that craves peace and nature with our two dogs and we were more than happy to be on a plot of land that we could call our own for a short period and be as loud as we wanted without upsetting any neighbours! The scenery and local walks are breath taking even at this time of year. As previous reviews mention, you do have to bring some amenities with you but not a problem as we knew this in advance and there is a well-stocked shop/gas station around the corner. We did have some instances where we required speaking to Charles, the property manager but he was always close by and more than happy to help. We were made aware that he was awaiting to amend the downstairs shower to improve the hot water temperature but wasn't too much of a bother as there were two other baths that could be used. We had an eclectic weather experience throughout our stay and the house was more than able to cope keeping us warm and dry. We did have a thunderstorm that took out the Internet on our second last day but wasn't a problem for us as mobile data connection was still pretty good and there was plenty of other things to occupy our time. One of the most magical aspects was having our dogs watch the sheep walk by one of the windows, supplying endless entertainment and a few barks here and there. Having 4 adults and 2 dogs in the car, this left little room in the car so we decided to bring a small trailer. Although the track to the house is narrow and a bit bumpy we were still able to do it and there was ample space for multiple cars, with the bonus of the open barn which we could store the trailer. Internally there is so much charm, fully stocked wood and coal for our stay and the bedrooms were very comfy. Having a ground floor bedroom was ideal for my mum who finds navigating stairs a bit difficult. All-in-all a fantastic break away from the South getting back to our roots. We would recommend.
