Lochlea was a cattle farm when originally acquired it in 2006. Extending some 222 acres it was realised that for a farm of that size to be viable something very different had to be done. Lohlea is also the only distillery in the world who can rightfully claim that Robert Burns himself lived and worked here. He spent his formative years from 1777-1784 at Lochlea.
