Hilly Cow Wigwams

Hilly Cow Wigwams is a small, family-run glamping site on Leyden Farm in West Lothian, near Kirknewton, sitting at the gateway to the Pentland Hills and roughly 10 miles from Edinburgh city centre.

The Barr family has farmed here for over 35 years, raising beef cattle, sheep, and arable crops, and welcomes guests into that working-farm environment.

Accommodation consists of several individually named heated wigwams — including Woollies, Larry Lamb, Henry's Ensuite, and Poppy Pig — each sleeping up to four or five people, with standard, ensuite, and deluxe options available.

Guests can explore the farm animals, join spring lambing tours, and access nearby walking, cycling, fishing, and golf. The site is also accessible by public transport, with a train or bus stop approximately 15–20 minutes' walk away.
