This area of Dumfries and Galloway boasts rugged coastlines and secluded sandy beaches which benefit from the warmth of the passing Gulf Stream and is surrounded by breath taking scenery, offering an ideal base from which to explore the Machars Peninsula and the Galloway Hills. There are many beautiful gardens to explore, including the renowned Logan Botanical Gardens. The area boasts many pretty little ports like Sandhead, Portpatrick and the RSPB Scotland Mull of Galloway Nature Reserve, where thousands of seabirds nest in the cliff face during the spring and summer.
Walking is a delight, whether along clifftops, beaches, hills or forests, and the Southern Upland Way passes close by. This is a cyclists’ paradise with the world famous 7Stanes within easy reach. If you prefer shooting or golf, there are many facilities nearby, including the county course just 4 miles away.
