Facebook5· 39 Airbnb · An incredible weekend stay - went for a relaxing girls trip & everything was even better than expected. Cat is super accommodating & took the time to chat with us about the many animals on the farm (who are all very cuddly!). The lodge was beautifully decorated & very cosy. Definitely planning to return & would recommend to others!

Facebook · If anyone is looking for a wee trip away, I cannot recommend Meikle Westland Farm Stay Scotland enough. Perfect stay for couples, friends getaway or for a family trip. 2 lodges with hot tubs sit on the farm where you can meet all the animals which have been rescued and given a better life. All the money from people staying goes back into the care of the animals. Cat, who owns and runs the farm, is a one of a kind. She works hard and tirelessly to make sure the animals have the best lives possible in a safe environment with the best care from vets/ animal physiotherapists/specialists. Cat introduces you to every animal by their name, their history and how they came to be on the farm. If you're an animal lover it's definitely a must to visit. After a really really hard 4 months that completely broke us, my sisters and I needed a wee bit of breathing space. We booked up here for a couple of nights and it honestly feels like the start of healing. Fresh air and animal hugs is definitely a therapy in itself. I had been here once before a few years ago and it was amazing to see the wee lambs I had helped bottle feed all grown up. We got to meet this year's new borns and I'm so excited to go back again to see them again. For heartwarming animal content, give them a wee follow on FB and TikTok ??
Facebook · just back from a fantastic stay here! the lodge was immaculate, spacious and had everything we could need! beds were also really comfy and the hot tub was great! the farm was just amazing, to hear from Cat how it all started and how its grown was just amazing! my boys (1&5) absolutely loved the animals. already looking to book again later in the year. thanks Cat ?
Google · Spent the weekend here with my 2 sisters and we had the best, most chilled out time! Loved going round seeing and chatting to Cat about all the animals - it's so beautiful to see how much she clearly loves them, and them her ❤️ The lodge was great, clean, comfy and spacious, with everything we could need. Cannot fault anything and will defo be visiting again

Booking.com · Amazing place to stay We loved our stay, the whole family had a lovely time. The kids adored the animals and how much free rein Cat gave them to explore (able to go in with the goats, play with the dogs and pat the horses). The lodge was spotlessly clean and i found the bed really comfy. Cat was the best host, she had loads of time for us even though she was really busy working the farm herself; spent lots of time talking to us about the animals and answering a million questions. It was much appreciated. All in would recommend. For us, the animal interactions were a highlight but if that’s not your thing, this is still a great place to visit. Very beautiful and tranquil. Hot tub was lovely, WiFi signal was great. No complaints at all and the kids are asking to return! P.s. we want a Dalmatian now ?
Facebook · Lovely lodge surrounded by goats, horses, donkeys and the cutest sheep. Relax in the hot tub and chat with the animals ?.
Airbnb · I took my daughter and grand-daughter for a few days to the Sanctuary. After the madness of Christmas and New Year, we were looking for some peace and quiet. The lodge had it in spades. We arrived to be met by Cat and her wonderful pack of friendly Dalmatians. She showed us to our lodge and gave us full and informative instructions. The lodge had a hot tub which was just a wonderful addition. The lodge was clean and cosy and we felt very comfortable there. Cat was around if you needed her but left you to your own devices if you wished. We loved interacting with the animals. A highlight was meeting the lambs that had recently been born. Cat is an inspiration, rescuing all those animals and being completely responsible for them all! We couldn’t have been happier, it was exactly what the Dr ordered. 5* from us * please be aware that the lodge is quite remote so you will need the use of a car. The entrance into the farm is via a steep farm track *

Booking.com · Fantastic time with Cat and the animals The accommodation. How safe it was. You could walk around and see the animals and walk down to the river. Host was very helpful professional and friendly. The sofas were uncomfortable for us
Booking.com · 10/10 experience What a beautiful place!. Surrounded by the most amazing views and animals. The lodge had everything needed for a relaxing weekend. The hot tub was an added bonus, watching the night sky was magical.
Facebook · Had a fantastic stay! Cat was lovely and welcoming. The lodge was comfortable and warm and it was great having the hot tub to relax in and look at the stars. My daughter did not want to leave. She loved visiting the animals and meeting the dogs. Our favourite was Didley the sheep in the bottom field. He was like a giant wooly, friendly dog-sheep. Would definitely stay again if we're ever back in the area.

Booking.com · Exceptional This was a beautiful lodge in a beautiful farm setting! Cat was a brilliant host, and it was amazing getting to meet the farm animals and dogs. We had a great time here, and the hot tub was brilliant. We also got to see amazing stars and even Jupiter! Will definitely be back.
Facebook · Just spent an amazing week at the farm. Lodges are beautiful, the hot tub was lovely and Cat is like wonder woman taking care of all her animals. Really lovely to be so hands on with donkeys, horses, sheep, goats and dogs. We didnt want to leave and will definately be back.
Airbnb · Meikle Westland Farm is a very special place to stay. From the moment you arrive and are welcomed by Cat and her dogs to the day you leave it is super relaxing. We stayed in Glen Roe lodge. Cat has thought of everything you may need and we were grateful she could provide a cot for our 19 month old grandson. Everything is spotlessly clean. The sky on a clear night is a beauty to behold. The Information pack is comprehensive and extremely interesting. The animals are contented, friendly and fun to interact with. I can’t recommend it highly enough.
Airbnb · I stayed at Cat's place for a few nights with my 2 boys who are 5 and 2. We had a wonderful time and so much fun meeting all the animals. Unfortunately our visit coincided with storm Babet. It was extremely windy during our second day, which meant we couldn't venture too far away from the lodge on foot. When I thought it would pretty much be a whole day spent indoors (not necessarily a bad thing as the lodge was lovely but if you have small children, you'll understand my pain!), Cat went out of her way to ensure my boys were entertained by letting them play with her dogs, feed the goats and peacocks and also collecting the chicken eggs from the coops! It was fantastic and we all had a fabulous time! The next day was much calmer weather wise and we got to enjoy the hot tub which was bliss. Overall, it was the perfect break and just what we all needed - thank you Cat!
Airbnb · A++++ We’re just back from a 3 night stay. Absolutely amazing, the lodge was spotless and smelt fresh. The hot tub was awesome and we could have sat in it for hours at night and watch the stars (we were lucky enough to see three shooting stars) 😃 Cat was a lovely host and on arrival we got 6 eggs OMG they were so rich and creamy we also found a local farm that sells fresh milk again OMG so thick and creamy. We also took up the opportunity to groom two small ponies and my daughters had a blast doing it. All the animals are so friendly especially big donkey and the dogs are so much fun fun fun. All in all we will definitely be back there was something for us all here so much so the kids really didn’t want to go 😞 cat you do a wonderful job keep up the hard work. The shankland’s. Ps wee Emily can’t wait to write to you 🙂.
