Rivox bunkhouse is an ideal base for skygazing, walking, mountain-biking, or staying overnight when cycling between John O’Groats and Lands-End, JOGLE, or LEJOG!
The farm is set within a thousand hectares of forestry and enjoys a large diversity of wildlife, with Red squirrels, Black grouse, Goshawk, Owls, Otters and Badgers, and streams with the clean water needed by pollution sensitive invertebrates.
With many miles of private Forestry Commission roads surrounding the farm, the area is ideal to explore by bike or by foot without having to negotiate stiles or challenging terrain.
Facilities in the Bunkhouse include bunks for up to 18 people in two rooms (you will need a sleeping bag), with two toilets, a shower, and a kitchen. There is an oven/hob in an external annex and outside you can sit round a campfire overlooking the lake. Barbeques welcome!
Parking is private and free. Rivox is accessed via a private road from the B7076 (follow the signs for Middlegill and go under the railway bridge, cross the Cloffin Burn and keep on going until you see the turn off). The road is used daily by 2WD vehicles, but care should be taken with ground clearance - if you have any access concerns contact us at rivox.farm@gmail.com
