A family farm shop and coffee bothy at Blairlogie, at the foot of the Ochils, opened on the old dairy farm in 2001.

Welcome

Blairmains Farm Shop and Coffee Bothy sits at the foot of the Ochil Hills in the village of Blairlogie, just east of Stirling, with the steep crags of Dumyat rising behind it and a great stone cairn with a carved eagle at the gate.

It was a dairy farm until the family opened the shop in June 2001 to safeguard the farm's future, and it grew so quickly that the buildings have been extended again and again; a second café, the Coffee Bothy Express, opened in 2007 to deal with the lunchtime queues.

The shop is full of fresh local produce, with gifts and homeware alongside, and the Coffee Bothy serves freshly made meals, home baking and good coffee. Everything is on one level, parking is free, and it is an easy stop on the Hillfoots road between Stirling and Alloa, or after a climb up Dumyat. It opens every day from 9am, until 5pm (4pm on Sundays).
