Escape with your loved ones at this bright and cheerful country retreat in the UNESCO-designated Galloway and Southern Ayrshire Biosphere - just 1.5 miles outside the Gatehouse of Fleet. Sleeping six people across three bedrooms, it’s an excellent choice for small families or groups of friends looking for a stylish lodge to call home while they discover Dumfries and Galloway together. Wake up and try your hand at archery or windsurfing at the Galloway Activity Centre (6.5 miles), or head into Kirkcudbright (7 miles) to check out the art galleries, take a tour at the Dark Sky Distillery and the visit the Dark Space Planetarium. Further afield, make your way to Castle Douglas (12 miles) to browse the shops, stroll around
Carlingwark Loch and sample the tipples on offer at Sulwath Brewery. Afterwards, head to the Cocoa Bean Chocolate Factory (15 miles) to take part in a hands-on chocolate-making class.
Step inside this sleek Scandinavian-style lodge and you’ll find an open-plan living/kitchen/dining area with a country-chic aesthetic defined by stylish lighting and light wood flooring. Take a moment to admire the open field views framed by the large patio doors, before you head to the farmhouse-style kitchen area to whip up some dinner. Gather everyone together to eat at the dining table, and then treat yourself to a glass of wine while you catch up on your favourite TV shows. At the end of the day, three beautifully-styled bedrooms await – a king-size with an en-suite shower room, a versatile twin (can be set up as a super-king on request), and a king-size with a PlayStation. A sleek family bathroom with a bath and shower completes the layout.
Open the sliding doors to the large, decked area, fire up the BBQ and share an al fresco feast at the picnic bench while you soak up the tranquil garden views.
