What ever the reason for your 'get away' we can't wait to welcome you to Craigduckie! Why not bring your wellies and roll your sleeves up to help with feeding and caring for our sheep, cows and chickens? - all guests receive a complimentary farm tour with a chance to meet the animals and sit on the tractor. We want you to spend quality time together, making memories whilst embracing the outdoors, getting back to basics, building dens, flying kites or going on an adventure off the beaten track. We are conveniently located just 15 minutes from junction 4 of the M90, 40 minutes from Edinburgh and just an hour from Glasgow so are very centrally based for exploring Scotland. Our handcrafted Shepherds Huts are finished to an exceptionally high standard with a partially glazed stable door leading to the quirky double bed (which folds up to create a seating area) and single bunk beds (suitable for children). The huts take glamping to a new level of glamorous with hot showers, wood burning stoves for warming the toes, solid oak kitchens with Belfast sink, hob, oven and fridge. Our kitchen area is fully equipped with everything you might need and we love to add little touches like home baking, marshmallows for toasting as well as tea coffee etc to get you started. Each hut has a fire pit with grate for BBQ’ing, outside seating area and its own hen house so you can collect fresh eggs for breakfast. We can’t wait to welcome you! Outside, park your cars adjacent to the huts and pack your luggage (and kids) into a barrow for the short walk to your hut (20m). Due to our rural location a taxi is required from our local bus station at Halbeath or Dunfermline (approx 3 - 4 miles) or the railway stations at Queen Margaret or Dunfermline Town. If you need any assistance with travel arrangements please contact us. We are never far away and are always happy to help whenever needed. We want to make your stay with us one you will treasure. We love to show guests around the farm and answer any questions you have about what we do. We also respect the fact that some people may simply want to escape and will leave you in peace.
