The Pig Sty - Clyde Valley

For a restful break in the Scottish countryside with your loved ones and dogs, plan a stay at this bustling farm in the scenic Clyde Valley. You’ll be in a charming wooden hut made from wood panelling for a rustic atmosphere. The site has wonderful views, a hot tub and an exercise where your dogs can roam and play freely. And when it’s time to explore, the surrounding area offers mile upon mile of pretty forest trails to discover.

Created with dogs in mind, the cabin has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate your furry friends, complete with cushioned, non-slip floors. The dome-like wooden ceilings create a cosy ambience, while animal-themed accessories create a playful and welcoming look. You’ll be able to admire views over the surrounding fields from many of the windows.

The inviting lounge area offers an open-concept space that’s perfect for gathering and kicking back after a day's activities. In the well-equipped kitchen, cook up delicious family meals to be enjoyed at the wooden dining table. When you’re tired from walking or cycling, relax on the plush sofa to catch up on a show or film on the Smart TV. The cabin's layout is completed by a family bedroom with a king-size bed and a bunk bed, as well as a modern wet room for washing and showering.

Outside, you’ll have a small private area featuring your hot tub. The six cabins on the property share a larger grassy area with views over a large, unfenced pond. For a fresh-air family feast, you can rent the BBQ hut directly from the owners.
