  • Stylish lodges with stunning views, 10 minutes from Castle Douglas
  • A 10-minute drive to Kirkcudbright; 20 minutes to Galloway Forest Park
  • Walking trails and horse riding centre on site
It’s tricky to decide which is more attractive at Barstobrick Holiday Lodges: the stunning scenery of the Dumfries and Galloway countryside or the stylish interiors… But as it happens you can admire both at the same time thanks to the large windows specially designed to make the most of the gorgeous views towards the Galloway Hills. Want a closer look? This site between Castle Douglas and Kirkcudbright (and about 10 minutes’ drive from either) is in a great position for exploring both countryside and coast, with several walking trails starting just outside the lodges and maps available to buy to make sure you don’t go astray. For an alternative way to get around, sign up for horseback treks from the riding centre on site – it’s got outings for all abilities, plus lessons for those who need a bit of guidance (booking ahead is advised for all riding activities). And if all this sounds a little tiring? Simply settle at the table and chairs on your deck, pour a drink and sit back to admire the views over the pond to the hills beyond. That outdoor table also makes a fine setting for an alfresco breakfast, which you can have delivered to your lodge in a hamper for an extra charge. Inside your lodge, it’s all comfy and smart – each one has a kingsize bed, kitchenette, Smart TV and an ensuite shower room.

Local attractions

It’s really straightforward to start exploring the locality from Barstobrick, as it has marked-out walking trails running direct from the site. Pick up maps at reception for a scenic stroll along the two-kilometre Ridge Trail or the longer 5.5-km Hot Blast Trail. For mini travellers, the kilometre-long Galloway Faerie Trail is the one: it’s buggy- and wheelchair-friendly and filled with magical things to spot along the way… For longer spells, try the trails through the Galloway Forest (20 minutes’ drive) or steel yourself for the 7Stanes Dalbeattie mountain bike trails (25 minutes). You may well spot wildlife along the way, but for guaranteed sightings you’ll want the Red Kite Feeding Station (10 minutes). Elsewhere, you may like to seek out sea air at Mossyard beach (20 minutes), play golf at Birhouse Bay (25 minutes) or wander around Cardoness Castle (15 minutes). Foodie Castle Douglas and arty Kirkcudbright are both 10 minutes’ drive away for some town time.
