The Roots of Broombarns Farm
Having been farmed by the Mackie family for over a century, Broombarns Farm returned to Dupplin Estate in 2025. Today, it continues its agricultural legacy as part of our wider farming operation.
Our vision for Broombarns Farm Stays grew from a desire to preserve that history while giving these beautiful old buildings a new purpose. Through careful restoration we have thoughtfully transformed the old buildings into boutique self-catering stays, where rustic character and contemporary comfort sit side by side to create a warm and relaxing retreat.
Every stay is designed to offer a sense of calm, space, and connection, with sweeping views across Broombarns farm and the wider the Dupplin Estate and the peaceful beauty of rural Perthshire all around.
From your doorstep, you can set out on beautiful walks across open fields, or venture towards Forteviot to explore our Wetland Restoration Project.
Whether you are here to rest, explore, or simply slow down, we hope you feel part of the continuing story of Broombarns.
“I suspect that there will be few estates in Scotland, maybe even in the UK, that cater as well, either consciously or incidentally, for wildlife”
(Stewart, 2019)
Alan Stewart’s book Walking with Wildlife – a year on a Scottish estate, provides a fascinating account of a year walking on Dupplin estate recording the changes in farming practice, the environment and our varied wildlife.
At Broombarns Farm and the wider Dupplin estate we are actively committed to long term wildlife habitat management. From badgers to bats, birds of prey to invertebrate and a diverse range flora and fungi, the estate is home to all kinds of wildlife.
