This was an amazing break away. My partner and I travelled here with our two friends for a three-night stay. We stayed in the Glen Roe Lodge and were welcomed on arrival and told all the need-to-knows before we unpacked and settled in. The lodge itself was gorgeous and extremely cosy. We were given complimentary chicken and duck eggs which was a lovely personal touch. The lodge was in perfect condition both in hygiene and cleanliness. The views both travelling to and on the farm were stunning. The animals were all very friendly and the hosts gave us a tour of the farm where we were told each of the animals backstories. Inside the lodge there is a handy booklet which includes phone numbers for local taxis, takeaways etc and a map of the farm and other local walkways. There was a wifi connnection which had a medium strength signal but was sometimes a bit iffy- however this wasn't a major issue as we spent most of our time exploring cumnock or outside in the hot tub! Cat and Ellie were very quick to respond if we sent them a text which was very helpful! The only issue is that the central heating is set to only be allowed during set hours which did not allow us to dry our towels conveniently (when the weather did not allow us to dry them outside). Although we brought some of our own towels, we also could have done with a few more towels than those which were provided. As there was no washing machine facilities, this meant we had to reuse towels. The only reason we had to use so many towels is because there were 4 of us and we had to shower before and after using the hot tub, which we used each of the three nights we were there. It wasn't a huge deal but was definitely an inconvenience- however, Cat and Ellie did put our used towels in the tumble drier for us so that they were atleast dry on the last night for us using the hot tub. Overall we had an amazing time at Meiklehill Westland Farm in the Glen Roe Lodge and would highly recommend this place for a couple, group of friends or family! We will definitely be returning as we had a great time here :) Thanks again to the hosts. Laura, Ali, Beth and Connor x
