Merry Christmas to you all!
I thought all I had to do was pop down to the farm with my Santa hat and a handful of feeding and I’d get the perfect Christmas picture with Hotty and Hetty!
I thought wrong!
Hope you all have a wonderful time x

Can you help?
I havent been very good at keeping you all up to date recently - this Autumn seems to have been super busy. But after a week in the sun I’m feeling revived and ready to go for another year.
But... I need your help - what's your favourite thing about Craigduckie Shepherds Huts? What should I be picturing or shouting about. Any help hugely appreciated.
P.s I.m away to put my tree up and find some festive spirit 😜 🌲

A very wintery scene at Craigduckie last weekend. Thankfully it wasn’t here to stay. As much as it looks pretty it just causes havoc.
I always think it’s nice to have a little snow to get you in the Christmas spirit.
Have you remembered to open the first door of your advent calendar?

A true shepherds experience.
We recently changed the pillows in the shepherds huts and instead of synthetic material we opted for the natural option.
We love the idea of using the wool we produce. Wool is a natural temperature regulator keeping you warm when you are cold and cool when you are hot.
We do our best to make sure you have the best stay!

On nights like this, light the stove and cuddle up for a movie night!
The TV in our hut is just a DVD player as your on holiday so shouldn't be catching up on the soaps but sometimes its nice to watch a movie together.
Whats your families favourite movie?

Grown your own conker tree from conkers you collect. When I was about 10 I found a conker that had sprouted and I planted it in the garden. Fast forward a few years (and a few more) a few house moves and it’s growing in our garden larger than life. So if you want to grow conker trees with your kids here’s how to do it - 1. Collect conkers 2. Place them in a bowl of water tans make sure they all sink. 3. Place them in an air tight container with a piece of kitchen roll at the bottom. 4. Dampen the kitchen roll with water.5. Place another price of kitchen roll on top and pop the lid on. 6. Place in the fridge for 2 - 3 months. 7. Once sprouted plant them in a pot of soil and keep watered. Our boys loved doing this and I hope you do too. Save this post so it’s to hand when you next collect conkers. #conkers #outdoors #growyourown #conkertree #outdooractivitieswithkids #familytime #screenfree #homeschooling #parenthack #craigduckie #glamping #gorural

Did you know we are only 50 minutes from the centre of Edinburgh! We all enjoyed an amazing family trip to the Edinburgh Military Tattoo on Wednesday night! Wow what an experience it was and to top it off the gentleman staying with us @craigduckieshepherdshuts was one of the marines performing. Have you ever been to the Tattoo? If not I’d highly recommend for all ages. #edinburgh #tatoo #edinburghtattoo #militarytattoo #edinburghcastle
Come for a look around our Ewe View Shepherds Hut. We can’t wait to welcome you.
Lambing time!
For those of you who are looking to get in on the ‘live lambing’ action at Criagduckie Shepherds Huts this year we would suggest booking your stay between the following dates:
28th Feb - 10th Mar 2024
&
29th Mar - 30th Apr 2024
With approximately 1500 expectant sheep there will be lots of lambs - we just need you all to keep your fingers crossed for some dry weather.
We have had a busy weekend pregnancy scanning our ewes (mummy sheep). Each ewe is scanned so we know exactly how many lambs she will be having.This is really important so we can ration their feeding depending on how many lambs they are having. We feed the triplet mums more than the single mums so that the single lamb doesn’t get too much and end up too big which would mean a difficult birth for mum and also so the triplet mum gets enough to grow all three of her lambs.Its now time to get organised for lambing - they will be here before we know it.Are you excited?
Welcome to Craigduckie Shepherds Huts!Where you can escape everyday life, get back to nature and explore the countryside - making memories that will last a lifetime.We cant wait to meet you and show you around.
Are you looking forward to spring?I can’t wait for warmer days, lighter nights, greener grass and of course baby lambs!What’s not to love.Let us know in the comments what you are looking forward to most.#springiscoming #lambs
Are you in need of a cosy night by the fire?
Our single night offer is available for all dates throughout January and February.
Just drop us a message to secure your dates!
2023 - what a year it’s been! Thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way - we have loved catching up with returning guests and meeting new ones and can’t wait to welcome you in 2024! We would like to wish you all the very best for the New Year ahead! #happynewyear #happyhogmanay #2023 #2023inpictures
