The Joys of a Rural Retreat at South Barlogan Farm
If you’re looking to escape the noise and pace of everyday life, there’s something deeply restorative about a countryside getaway. Nestled in the lush greenbelt of Bridge of Weir, Renfrewshire, South Barlogan Farm offers a truly unique holiday experience. With three self-contained cottages set in a peaceful farm setting and the charming company of alpacas and free-range chickens, it’s the ideal destination to relax, recharge and reconnect with nature.
1. A Breath of Fresh Air
The rural setting of South Barlogan Farm means you’re surrounded by open skies, rolling fields, and fresh country air. Just on the outskirts of the village of Bridge of Weir, you’ll feel a world away from the city, yet still enjoy the convenience of nearby amenities. It’s the perfect spot for morning walks, leisurely picnics, or simply soaking up the scenery from your cottage patio.
2. The Calming Presence of Animals
There’s something special about staying on a working farm where animals roam freely. At South Barlogan, you’ll be greeted by several gentle alpacas, known for their inquisitive and friendly nature. Guests often find joy in watching their peaceful grazing or snapping a selfie with these charismatic creatures. Our free-range chickens also add a touch of rural charm—and if you’re lucky, you might even collect fresh eggs for breakfast!
3. Space to Truly Unwind
Unlike busy hotels or bustling resorts, our self-contained cottages offer space and solitude. Whether you’re sipping a morning coffee with views of the countryside or enjoying a starlit evening with nothing but the sounds of nature, South Barlogan Farm is a haven for those in search of peace and privacy.
4. Perfect for Families, Couples, or Solo Travellers
Our cottages are suited to a range of guests—from families looking for a safe and spacious environment for children, to couples seeking a romantic countryside escape. Solo travellers, too, will find it a nurturing space to relax, reflect, or write that novel they’ve been meaning to start.
5. Connect with Nature, Disconnect from Stress
Modern life can be overwhelming. At South Barlogan, you have the chance to slow down, disconnect from digital distractions, and reconnect with what really matters. The experience of simply watching alpacas in the field, collecting eggs, or listening to birdsong can be surprisingly therapeutic.
6. Gateway to the West of Scotland
While our farm feels delightfully remote, it’s also a fantastic base for exploring wider Renfrewshire and the west of Scotland. From woodland walks and cycle routes to charming village shops and historic sites, there’s plenty to see and do nearby if you fancy an outing.
