Cleghorn Farm is a mixed farm just north east of the market town of Lanark. Comprised of 250 acres of fields and woodland and bounded to the south by Mouse Water, it is a beautiful spot to get away from it all without having to leave it all behind if you don't want to. The fields are grazed and cultivated but the woodlands are much as they were at the end of the last ice age with spectacular walks along Cleghorn Glen with the chance to see badgers, bats, deer and all manner of birds among the towering pine and beech trees.
The Mouse Water (pronounced moose) tumbles down along the edge of the farm and has some glorious pools for swimming, shallows for paddling and some spectacular water falls before it joins the River Clyde.

Star Hosts in Blawhorn Moss National Nature Reserve
Glamping in Blawhorn Moss National Nature Reserve with a private bathroom guide
Overview
The windswept moors of Blawhorn National Nature Reserve feel secluded and hidden away but are just a 45-minute drive from Glasgow. The land that makes up this magical nature reserve is the remnant of the raised and blanket bogs that once covered much of central Scotland. Follow the raised boardwalk around the moss and feel more than 8,000 years of history under your feet, locked into the bog’s layers of peat. As a protected nature reserve, there is no camping within the Moss. The closest organised site is in Strathclyde Country Park, a 35-minute drive west.
When to go
The reserve appears at its best when the sun is shining and so the best time to visit is from April through July when days are long. Spring is a good time for spotting red grouse in the blooming purple heather, while in summer the reserve bursts with red, fuchsia and orange colours and dragonflies, damselflies and butterflies flit around. In the autumn, there’s the possibility of seeing roe deer in the early morning or evening.
Know before you go
- The boardwalk that runs around the reserve is accessible and provides close-up views of the bog.
- The closest bus stop is in Blackridge, which is connected to the reserve by a footpath network. Blackridge Railway Station is on the North Clyde Line from Helensburgh to Edinburgh and stops at Glasgow, Airdrie and Bathgate. The Reserve entrance connects with the National Cycle Network Route 7.
- Visitors should keep the Scottish Outdoor Access Code in mind as they visit the reserve. Take your litter home with you and keep dogs under close control.
