THE BARN, SUMMERHILL FARM STAYS, Balmaclellan

The Barn offers a private hot tub on the terrace, with views over open farmland. Guests have access to an on-site golf course, adding a recreational option without leaving the property. Free WiFi and free parking are included, along with air conditioning and private check-in and check-out services.

This one-bedroom holiday home includes a spacious living room with a sofa bed and a fully equipped kitchen. The bathroom is stocked with a hairdryer, and robes and binoculars are provided for guest use. A TV allows guests to log into their own streaming services for personalised entertainment.

The Barn sits in a quiet countryside setting, with only sheep for neighbours and a private terrace enclosed by a fence. An outer perimeter mesh fence surrounds the two lodges, ensuring pets cannot escape the property. Loch Ken is a ten-minute drive away, and the ruins of Kenmure Castle are also nearby for exploration.

The Barn welcomes pets and provides thoughtful dog-friendly touches, including a secure outdoor area and treats left by the hosts. The two lodges share a fenced common area, but each terrace is individually enclosed for privacy. Guests arriving with animals benefit from private check-in and check-out, making the process seamless.

Hiking and cycling are directly accessible from the property, with trails through surrounding farmland and hills. The holiday home is 42 km from Rockcliffe, 35 km from Drumlanrig Castle, and 63 km from Glasgow Prestwick Airport. Guests can sit in the hot tub under the stars after a day exploring the countryside.
