Cleghorn Farm

15 units · Glamping, Tents250 acres · Lanark, Scotland
*PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE ONLY OPEN FOR CABIN BOOKINGS UNTIL NEXT SPRING. THE CABIN IS AVAILABLE FOR MIDWEEK AND WEEKEND BOOKINGS. WE REQUIRE AT LEAST 48 HOURS NOTICE FOR CABIN BOOKINGS* 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.

Campsites near Jedburgh guide

Overview

Just minutes from the border with England, Jedburgh is steeped in all of the dramatic history that that frontier has wrought over the years. Visitors with a taste for history can discover the tragic story of Mary Queen of Scots at her former home; wander through the intriguing ancient wynds (alleys) of the well-preserved town centre, and take a stroll around the grounds of the 12th-century Jedburgh Abbey and admire its fascinating artefacts. Nearby, Ale Water Valley offers plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities such as cycling, horse riding and golf.  

Where to go

Around Town

The St Cuthbert's Way 62-mile (100-kilometre) long-distance trail passes through Jedburgh on its way from Melrose to Lindisfarne (Holy Island) off the coast of Northumberland, England. Long-distance walkers and others wanting to spend the night in Jedburgh can set up camp at the small Jedburgh Camping and Caravanning Club Site. Just outside town, it has pitches for tents and tourers.

Ancrum

A 10-minute drive north of Jedburgh, the small village of Ancrum is set by the Ale River and enjoys a peaceful, rural setting. Just north of the village, and surrounded by countryside, Lilliardsedge Holiday Park and Golf Course has pitches for tents and tourers, as well as its own nine-hole golf course.

Hawick

Fifteen minutes west of Jedburgh, Hawick is primarily known for its rich textile heritage, particularly knitwear and cashmere, and for its annual spectacle of horsemanship, the Common Ridings. Midway between Hawick and Jedburgh, Wild Woods Camping Ruberslaw offers a variety of tent pitches, including pitches inside the site’s attractive walled garden.

When to go

With its mild climate, Jedburgh and the surrounding Scottish Borders region is a year-round destination, but best experienced in the summer when the sun is (with luck) shining and the calendar is filled with activities, including the Common Ridings, which take place in various towns over the summer period. Bear in mind that July and August, when the Scottish schools are on holiday, is peak tourist season so booking sites in advance is recommended.

Know before you go

  • Not all sites in the area open year-round: check opening dates before travelling.
  • If you choose to wild camp, be sure to adhere to the Scottish Outdoor Access Code. Note that wild camping is not legal over the border in England.
  • While you can get around by using public buses, having your own transport offers more flexibility. The closest train station is Tweedbank, which is a 45-minute bus journey away.
  • There are a few small supermarkets in Jedburgh but you’ll find more options in Hawick.
