There are two pubs in the village serving good food as well as a small shop open in season and 3 miles away Dalbeattie provides more general shopping.

The 7 Stanes cycling trails is even closer and there is a most attractive 9 hole golf course within walking distance of the chalet with the championship course at Southerness just round the coast. There are sandy beaches and forest trails to explore and also many lovely gardens nearby for those seeking a slower pace of recreation.

The open plan layout of the large reception area is ideal for a relaxing holiday mood and there are balconies and a gravel garden perfect for al fresco dining or just watching the sun go down over the hills while making plans for tomorrow.

Area Description

Warmed by the Gulf Stream, this area enjoys a mild climate all year round. There is much of historical interest here with links with St. Cuthbert and St. Ninian as well as Robert the Bruce and the Border Reivers. Robert Burns wrote much of his best works here and his home town of Dumfries now houses a wonderful new Visitor Centre.

The particular quality of light brought many well known artists to the region and nearby Kirkcudbright is a mecca for those interested in art and painting. Castle Douglas, Scotland's Food Town, is a short drive away while for those more interested in "feeding" the mind Scotland's official Book Town, Wigtown, is slightly further afield.

The Colvend Coast area

There is a tremendous range of activities here for the visitor. Golf courses, sailing, horseriding, cycling, walking and fishing are all available close by and there are tennis courts and swimming pools in nearby Kirkcudbright, Castle Douglas and Dumfries.

Throughout the year there are various festivals including The Wickerman Festival in July, The Spring Fling Art Festival in May, the Kirkcudbright Jazz Festival in June, Gael Force(World Music) from late August to early November and enough concerts and ceilidhs to appeal to all interests.
