Cleghorn Farm is a mixed farm just north east of the market town of Lanark. Comprised of 250 acres of fields and woodland and bounded to the south by Mouse Water, it is a beautiful spot to get away from it all without having to leave it all behind if you don't want to. The fields are grazed and cultivated but the woodlands are much as they were at the end of the last ice age with spectacular walks along Cleghorn Glen with the chance to see badgers, bats, deer and all manner of birds among the towering pine and beech trees.
The Mouse Water (pronounced moose) tumbles down along the edge of the farm and has some glorious pools for swimming, shallows for paddling and some spectacular water falls before it joins the River Clyde, all a gentle walk from the sites.

Built in 1733, King Garth is also known as The Old Customs House, reflecting its role in these fraught times of smuggling. Its strategic position on the banks of The Eden served as the perfect lookout for a bailiff employed by Carlisle Corporation to protect the very important salmon fishery. The plaques on the building which commemorate the visits by Mayors date back to the 1700s. These visits no doubt involved indulgent banquets centring around freshly caught salmon
I grew up on the opposite side of the river. On family walks along the Eden I was always fascinated by the house on the other side sited in such an amazing position.
In 2010, when I returned to Cumbria I was amazed to hear that this house was for sale. It was a ruin and everyone told me I was mad..... I probably was a little! But I soon realised that I wasn’t alone in my love of this house, everyone I met from the surrounding villages had a tale to tell about this iconic place. King Garth is for sharing - with locals, (we have an annual barbecue), with wildlife and with people like you.
The aim when renovating King Garth was to celebrate and embrace its history. King Garth is off grid and has no running water. It is furnished in a style to reflect its history. It isn’t everyone’s ‘cup of tea’: you have to drive a mile down a muddy lane, there is no hot shower, no electric lighting, and a compost toilet. BUT we offer beautiful evenings of candle light, log burner, hot tub under the stars and bathing in the river.
My priority with King Garth and the land attached was to manage in a way to protect the abundant wildlife. There are also alpacas who you can look after during your stay.
You will be astounded by the din the birds make at dawn and dusk!
Inside the house there is an owl box where one summer a pair of barn owls successfully raised chicks. Since then a kestrel frequents the box and has twice laid there.
This part of the Eden is tidal so both estuarine and river species co exist. Kingfishers and otters are often spotted And even the occasional seal! Kinggarth comes with fishing rights and if you want to fish this can be arranged with the host.
The bird feeders are frequented by tree sparrows, yellow hammers, wood peckers, nut hatches and in winter red poll.

Escape to the Woods
Tucked away amongst the trees at Bowie Wood, our spacious 6m bell tent is a secluded woodland retreat designed for slowing down, switching off and reconnecting with nature.
Set on its own raised timber platform, the tent looks out into the woodland, with a covered awning creating a sheltered spot to sit outside with your morning coffee or simply listen to the forest around you.
Inside, natural coir flooring, a king-size bed and the warmth of a wood-burning stove create a cosy retreat whatever the Scottish weather decides to do.
This isn't a manicured campsite. You're staying within our woodland, surrounded by mature trees, mossy ground, ferns and wildlife. Red squirrels, roe deer, woodpeckers, buzzards and bats are all visitors to Bowie Wood, and after dark the woodland becomes wonderfully peaceful.
Follow the woodchip path back to your tent, light the stove, make a hot chocolate and settle in for the evening. On clear nights, step outside and look up — away from the bright lights of town, the woodland is a beautiful place for stargazing.
Although it feels hidden away, Bowie Wood is close to Stirling and makes a wonderful base for exploring central Scotland, from Stirling Castle and Bannockburn to the Ochil Hills, Loch Lomond and The Trossachs.
Bowie Wood is an ongoing rewilding project, where we’re working to restore and enhance the woodland while allowing nature to flourish. You may notice areas of ongoing work around the wider site as we continue to improve habitats, paths and facilities. We aim to keep any disruption to guests to a minimum.
Come here for the quiet, the trees and the chance to experience something a little different.
Slow down. Light the fire. Sleep amongst the trees.

We had a fab, relaxed weekend camping at Beirhope Farm. We are a family of 4 and we were pitched on the woodland magic site. We really enjoyed this pitch as it was set apart from the others - we had a large space all to ourselves (ideal as we have 2 noisy kids!). We all had fun feeding the cute alpacas - Lynn the site owner very kindly gave us carrots each day to feed them. Lovely scenery and amazing view of the stars at night. Would love to camp here again!

From the moment I arrived Lynne greeted me and my kid (6yrs) and made us feel welcome - she went out of her way to be helpful and made us feel really welcome. The site is beautiful and our pitch was shaded which helped (heatwave) and higher altitude meant consistent mild breeze. The alpaccas were soo charing and make a relaxing murmuring noice (so not disruptive) . Lynne and her team clearly are important to the local community they had a small gathering to watch the lunar eclipse and meteor shower with fire and bbq, which a local enthusiast brought telescope/camera to stream the eclipse through to look & special glasses. Beautiful shop too. Just perfect!

Once again, Lynne and the crew at Beirhope go above and beyond and do not disappoint.
Last year we stayed at the Hatties Hideaway pitch and were impressed by the outdoor kitchen, so this time we picked Samuel’s Super Pitch. Did not expect to have a stove and proper cutlery and crockery included, but I now know that when we next come we can pack lighter.
The highlight had to be the astronomy event that was organised for campers and external guests alike, including a short trek up the hills to take pictures of the sky in one of the darkest places in the country.
Lynne greeted us by name when we arrived, checked in throughout our stay and coped with the offspring’s animated info dumping. Cannot recommend Beirhope Alpacas enough and already making plans for our next stay.

I would 100% recommend anyone to check out camping at Bierhope Alpacas. Me and my girlfriend stayed for 2 nights on Phil’s patch and it was brilliant! Lynne welcomed us and she was absolutely lovely and happy to help with anything during our stay. The views and surroundings are great, and you have everything you need in terms of facilities. We will definitely be back!

This is a nice quiet spot in the Borders, within reach of a few good places. Clean and well kept campsite, the alpacas provide that extra interest. The charm is the rustic off grid but even within the basic nature of the place most things are still provided, shop, fires and toilets. Lynn is a good host and took the time to make us feel welcome and even managed to find small screwdrivers to fix our glasses.

Lovely campsite, so peaceful and Lynne couldn’t be friendlier. We really loved the reading nook and being able to camp so close to the Alpaca’s. Lynne has clearly put a lot of attention to detail in ensuring people have a comfortable stay and there are a lots of complementary add-ons you can purchase once you arrive. Would definitely recommend to those looking for a relaxing stay in the Borders.

The site at Otter Moss is stunning, and set in beautiful, quiet Cumbrian countryside. Ruth and her family are lovely hosts, and the beautiful cabins and yurts make the camping experience cosy and comfortable. Close to Hadrian's Wall and less than an hour from the Lake District, this is really a special find. Would highly recommend!

A wonderful stay for our anniversary weekend.
We had everything we needed and hosts that made us feel like family.
The alpacas made awesome neighbours, as did the other campers. There was just a general feeling of happiness at the site. The pitches are well thought out, spaced so that you have plenty of room but can still enjoy atmosphere from others around you.
There are birds everywhere, swallows, house martins, chaffinches and in the twilight hours, little bats!
The eco loos and washing facilities were immaculate.
On our pitch we had Kale's kitchen and were very grateful for the seating under shelter when we were hit by heavy rain.
We have been campers for a few years and nothing has come close to how good Beirhope is.
This place is really special - a slice of rural paradise that we hope to see again soon.
Thank you Lynne and Al. x

Where to go
Around Town
To the west of town, Bonnyfield Nature Reserve is home to a diversity of flora and fauna, including the rare Burnet Moth. The reserve also lies close to the John Muir Way long-distance walking route. Just a few minutes’ drive south of the reserve, Bonnybridge Eco Camping and Glamping has tent pitches, as well as bell tents and a glamping pod for rent.
Falkirk
A 10-minute drive east of Bonnybridge, Falkirk is known for its two engineering marvels, the 98-foot- (30-metre-) high equestrian sculptures named the Kelpies, and the Falkirk Wheel, the world’s first rotating boat lift. The Falkirk wheel links the Union and Forth and Clyde Canals, and you can experience it by taking a boat trip. On a working farm in a rural location, the Wheel Caravan Park has tents pitches as well as static caravans for hire.
Campsie Fells
A 45-minute drive west of Bonnybridge, the gently rolling hills of the Campsie Fells are popular with hillwalkers. You can access to the hills from Campsie Glen Holiday Park, which has pitches for tents, motorhomes and caravans, as well as glamping pods, lodges with hot tubs and static caravans for hire.
When to go
For enjoying long days that you can pack full of activities—and for your best chance of good weather—visiting between May and August is your best bet. This is also the busiest tourist season throughout Scotland, however, so it's a good idea to make reservations in advance, especially during the school summer holidays in July and early August. September is a good alternative for fewer crowds and a still pleasant climate.
Know before you go
- Not all campsites are open year-round: check opening dates before travelling.
- If choosing to wild camp, be sure to adhere to the Scottish Outdoor Access Code.
- There are plenty of shops in town for stocking up on the essentials.
- Local buses can get you to most places of interest. The closest train station is in Falkirk, a 25-minute bus journey away.
