Discover the story behind our family estate

The Dalreoch & Bardrochat Farming and Sporting Estate belongs to the Wellesley family who descend from the McConnels who have lived in the Stinchar valley for 150 years. It is run as a traditional rural estate with farming, fishing and shooting at its heart.

Set in the Stinchar Valley near Colmonell, the estate is home to a range of cottages and houses available for short stays or to rent long term, set among the farmland, woodland and riverbank that shape this quiet corner of South Ayrshire.
