Why stay here ...

Ideally situated just 2 miles off both the M73 (main Scotland North-South route) and M8 (East-West) within the green belt and Glasgow's Seven Lochs Wetland Park Area.

Adjacent to a small farm and chalet and our 5 acres of woodland, this quiet site is a perfect stop-over or ideal base for exploring all that Glasgow and Southern Scotland has to offer. (Edinburgh, Stirling, Perth, Clyde Coast, Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park are all less than an hour away).

P+R/Bus service into Glasgow 1/2 mile away and Rail Stations are within 2 miles.

Families are welcomed, but we don't provide any facilities for children. These are at Drumpellier Country Parkn which is only 3 minutes away and has excellent children's play facilities, a loch walk and miles of signposted trails etc.

Within 3 miles are the Time Capsule Waterpark/Ice Rink, and the [excellent, free] Summerlea Museum of Scottish Industrial Life, plus golf clubs and two excellent Retail Parks for shopping without going into the city.

There are smaller shops, supermarkets, takeaways etc within 1 mile.

EHU, WiFi and an enhanced Pitch are proposed - please check first if these are essential to you.

2 well behaved dogs only. This is a working farm so dogs would need to be on a leash at all times. There is no dog walking allowed on site/in the adjacent woods. (Drumpellier Park is less than 5 minutes away).

Facilities on site ...

  • Battery charging
  • Dog walk from site
  • Golf course

Great location

Lochwood Farm
Not only is this site well located as a stopover for journeys further up north or back down south, it is also ideal for trips into Glasgow itself. Its other great selling point is the helpfulness of the owners. Their flexibility on leaving and arrival times makes journey planning that bit easier. The site itself is very quiet (I couldn't hear any motorway noise despite it being so close) and surprisingly rural given its location. It also feels very secure.

Lovely site

Lochwood Farm
This is a lovely, peaceful site which is ideal as a stopover or for visiting Glasgow. No EHU, but that's OK for us as we're self sufficient. Even though the motorway can be heard, it doesn't intrude on the general quietness of the site. Nice environment with secure gated access. Paul met us on arrival and was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We drove a few miles to the railway station where parking was easy, and took the train into Glasgow Queen St. Perfect!

This CL is a gem for off-grid tourers.

The owners, Christine and Paul are very friendly and welcoming and happy to give local information. The site is very roomy and despite the background noise from the motorway, very peaceful. Access to Glasgow could not be simpler with the blue train into Queen St station from Gartcosh - which has a large car park. We will certainly be back!

Close to Glasgow but country feel

Lochwood Farm
Although there’s constant background noise from the motorway this feels like a very rural location. The site is delightful in a clearing surrounded by trees.There was constant birdsong, we saw a very handsome fox, and heard owls and a woodpecker. Really useful stop over travelling to & from Highlands.

Ideal location

Lochwood Farm
Ideally located for Glasgow. Friendly welcome when we arrived. Very clear guidance beforehand on location of services and gate key code. Plenty of space on a pretty even field. Site is generally quiet, with occasional traffic noise. NB site is off Lockheed Road, which can be busy, and is not so easy to walk along in either direction.
