From keen coastal explorers to anyone who loves nothing better than a good hike, this contemporary lodge in Mossyard offers the perfect base for exploring the true beauty of South West Scotland. The surrounding traditional working farm is situated in a magnificent coastal location with the beautiful backdrop of the Galloway Hills in the heart of rural Dumfries and Galloway. The Gatehouse of Fleet, located 4 miles away on the edge of the magnificent Galloway Forest Park, offers a wild landscape with expansive moorland, perfect for keen walkers and hikers. Sitting at the northern end of the mouth of Fleet Bay, the small Mossyard Beach, half a mile away, offers the opportunity to skim stones out to sea and many exciting rock pools to explore. The lively fishing port town of Kirkcudbright, with its fabulous marina popular with visiting sailors, can be reached within 12.5 miles.
Complete with rustic wooden-clad ceilings and walls, quintessentially coastal hues and homely touches everywhere you look, the light-filled open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner at the heart of this home-away-from-home is bursting with cosy charm. The delightful gas fire adds both warmth and charm, whilst stunning patio doors to the deck not only make the most of indoor/outdoor living, but frame mesmerising views across the bay. The plush sofa and farmhouse-style dining set are perfectly placed for you to sit back and enjoy the view as you unwind at the end of a busy day’s adventure. Back through the entrance hallway, you’re met with a contemporary family shower room which offers everything you need to feel refreshed. Enjoying the same natural wood hues as the rest of this charming bolthole, the king-size bedroom and two twin bedrooms promise a peaceful rest.
Enjoy breathtaking views across the bay and sandy shores of Mossyard beach below as you enjoy a spot of al fresco dining on the wrap-around glass-fronted veranda, which also boasts a BBQ.
