James

We loved the lodge-super well equipped and in an amazing spot right by the rocky beach. It's so peaceful, perfect for unwinding. The views over the sea from the living room and hottub are absolutely stunning. Definitely somewhere we'd return to!

Sam

Absolutely loved the lodge, great location, everything was spot on, couldn't ask for more!

James

We had a lovely stay at this lodge! The setting is peaceful, with stunning views and only a handful of lodges around, so it felt really private. The arrival pack was a nice touch-wine, chocolates, dog treats-and the hot tub was spotless and cosy. Everything we needed was nearbyand we've already booked for next year. Highly recommend!

Emma

Such a calming experience, genuinely loved it!

Emma

We had such a lovely stay here! The circular walks were perfect for our spanieland it was a relief to know he was safe inside the property. The hot tub was fantastic, offering stunning views over the Solway Firth and the surrounding countryside - we couldn't get enough of it. We also spotted some Ospreys, which was a real bonus. Nearby Kirkcudbright and Gatehouse of Fleet are charming, but honestly, we just enjoyed relaxing locally and strolling to the little shop in Auchencairn. Great spot!

Emma

The lodge was peaceful and spacious, perfect for relaxing. Watching the waves from the hot tub was absolutely lovelyand I really appreciated the enclosed patio for privacy.

Emma

We had an absolutely lovely stay! Fiona and her family really go the extra mile to make sure guests feel at home, with thoughtful touches like gifts and super soft towels and robes. The view from the property is just stunning, no matter the weather - a real dose of nature! The hot tub was spotless and so relaxing, especially to the sounds of waves, birdsand owls at night. We saw hares, deer, bats, curlews, geeseand loads of seabirds. A great spot to explore Galloway!

James

The lodge was super cosy with everything we needed, perfect spot to just relax and enjoy the sea!

Emma

Cozy place, stunning views, loved every bit!

Jamie

We had a fantastic four-day stay for my birthday! The scenery was absolutely breathtakingand we even spotted a seal right from the bedroom window - pretty special! The place was super well-equippedand the little welcome gifts were a lovely touch. It was cosy and warm, perfect for the chilly weather outside. The enclosed outdoor area for the dogs was a real bonusand hearing an owl hooting while relaxing in the hot tub was magic. We're already planning to return!

Ellie Thomas

We had an amazing stay! The directions to get there were straightforwardand the little touches like the welcome wine, chocolatesand flowers really made us feel special. The lodge was just right for us and our two dogs - every appliance you could think of was there. No3 was utterly stunning with breathtaking viewsand the location felt so secluded. The beach nearby was perfect for dog walksand I felt totally safe staying solo for a few nights. Would definitely come back!

Emma Clarke

We had such a lovely stay at the lodge! It's beautifully decorated and super cosy, with breathtaking views that really made our mornings special. The hot tub was spotlessly maintained and a perfect way to unwind after a busy day exploring. Checking in and out was straightforwardand the little touches like flowers, wineand chocolates on arrival were a lovely surprise. Our dog was also well looked after with her own treats and bowls. Overall, a fantastic escape we'd definitely recommend!

We had such a lovely, chill break in this gorgeous part of the country, with breathtaking views everywhere. Taking the dog for coastal walks, spotting dolphins, deerand plenty of birds made it special. Ending the day in a fantastic hot tub was the cherry on top! Big thanks to the friendly owner for the wine and treats for the pup-we'll definitely return!

We really enjoyed our stay! The place had all the facilities we needed, plus stunning views. It was super quiet, perfect for relaxing. Castle Douglas is about 20 minutes away, but Auchencairn's local shop is just a few minutes' drive - handy! Would recommend.
