About The Bus Stop

The Bus Stop is situated on a working arable farm and during your stay you will be able to witness its day to day running. Our farm is home to alpacas, goats, sheep and chickens, so there are plenty of great photo opportunities! We have undertaken significant changes in recent years, with a move to regenerative farming. The health of our local ecosystem is paramount to everything we do and you'll see an abundance of wildlife on your strolls around the farm.

Spend time in your own private wood fired hot tub on the decking area, with stunning views to the Lammermuir Hills. Hidden away in the corner of the farm is a small remote pond and picnic spot where you can relax in peace. There are grassed paths around the farm, perfect for family walks and suitable for dogs on leads. Alternatively consider one of our bookable activities below.
