What to bring - Slippers are a must, torch, camera, food and drinks remembering that bottle of bubbly and of course time....... to just sit and enjoy this really unique experience set in your own shire!
In the evening sit outside overlooking the views of the Ochils and watch the beautiful horses roam. Test your cookery skills on the BBQ and enjoy your food al fresco. You will be treated to lots of birds - we regularly have Red Kites fly overhead -, wildlife, soay and ryeland sheep, ponies, our two donkeys, our pygmy goats, a variety of poultry including turkeys, rhea, guinea fowl, ducks, geese and the stars of the show our two highland cows Uigg and Beag!
There is plenty to do in the area in the day but if you don't feel like leaving the idyllic setting you can just enjoy the two acres of grounds and gardens at Craighead.
Kids - sorry but the Howf's are not suitable for children.
Dogs - Sorry but we can not accommodate dogs
