Woodhead Farm is situated off the A711 some 31⁄2 miles west of Dumfries. Woodhead Farm is an exceptional dairy farm, benefitting from not only a traditional farmhouse but an architect designed four-bedroom secondary dwelling, along with modern and traditional farm steading incorporating a 14/14 Herringbone parlour, range of young stock buildings and a fairly recently established equestrian livery which utilises the traditional courtyard. The property benefits from both mains and private water supplies.

The land is in a ring fence with about 225 acres of agricultural land. The agricultural land is down to grass or forage crops for grazing and conservation (silage or hay), with the land also being capable of growing a wide range of cereal and other forage crops.

The farm is conveniently located not far from the regional centre of Dumfries, which provides all essential services within the busy market town. The town boasts all essential and professional services, along with three retail parks, an ice rink, and a University Campus. Dumfries offers a wide choice of both primary and secondary schooling with the Crichton University Campus offering a wide variety of further education choices.

THE STEADING

The steading buildings are a mixture of modern and traditional construction and house the dairy herd and young stock, with the traditional buildings being adapted to a 15 stable livery.
