Description
Glenny Hill Farm is a unique and beautiful property located in rural Stirlingshire, Scotland. The farm is situated in the Menteith Hills, with stunning panoramic views of the Lake of Menteith and the Campsie Fells.

The farm has been traditionally managed for grazing livestock, with a mix of improved grassland and woodland. The current owner has managed the farm on a contract farming arrangement, grazing 35 head of breeding cattle, which has helped to improve the land and create a diverse mosaic of habitats. The farm also has the potential for deer stalking and a sustainable supply of fresh venison. There are no services on the farm, but mains electricity and telephone lines are available nearby. The property offers a rare opportunity to enhance a diverse range of habitats and create a lovely manageable farm or small estate.
