We absolutely loved our stay in The Lady Maxwell Room at Buittle Castle. The level of attention to detail the owners have put into decorating each room, designing the garden, and restoring the castle is incredible and makes the experience all the more special. It was so nice to learn from James about the history of the land and their ancestors.
There is plenty of parking, the bed was comfortable , it's near some lovely towns with great restaurants and there appears to be a resident peacock. He was beautiful! Breakfast was delicious and the presentation was delightful. We would stay again in a heartbeat.
The Munches Room at Buittle Castle, boasting a garden, is located in Castle Douglas, 25 km from Dumfries and County Golf Club and 37 km from Caerlaverock Castle.

No matter how grand an environment it is the attention to detail on even small things that move an experience from good to great. The preparation, the thinking and the execution by the small team made this stay great. The room was finished with charm and exceptional attention to detail in an environment giving a first impression of a rustic spot.

Good breakfast, friendly and attentive staff. Cozy dining hall with a fireplace. Quiet unlike the rest of the hotels in Castle Douglas with their loud pubs.

Liked the room. Picking up keys by code lock was good idea. Able to have meal in bar and breakfast. Staff was very good looking after us at evening meal.
A stunning village. Incredible scenery. Great hotel and super coffee shop. RNLI gift shop in the village.
Walk to Rockcliffe around 20 minutes through woodland. Wear trainers not heels.
Once at Rockcliffe you can walk to Castle Point. Says it is half a mile - more like 2 miles. People also walked across mud flats to island.

Kippford is the perfect picturesque spot for a quiet coastal getaway. There are two hotels both serving food, plus a lovely tearoom. We stayed at The Anchor where we had a tasty lunch from a table at the front overlooking the sea. Also enjoyed post-walk coffee, hot chocolate and cake from the tearoom, which also has picnic tables at the front. Good walks from the door, including a lovely circular one to Rockcliffe beach and back, all all with wonderful views.

Kippford is a quiet seaside hamlet with a couple of accommodating pub/hotels and an excellent location on the Solway Firth, handily placed for exploration of an overlooked part of Scotland, the south west, which is rich in history, scenery, and distant from urban life with all its associated advantages and disadvantages. Come for the peace, the coast, the kindliness of strangers, and return home knowing you've had a good break with plenty of sea air and tranquillity.

Kippford is a friendly and very pretty village.
Kippford is a friendly and very pretty village. There are lots of walks nearby, and also 2 pubs - both which were very good. The food in the anchor hotel was varied and very well priced. Walking is the easiest way to get round Kippford. Only sad there is not really a beach, but further round there is a beach but not sand, cockle shells- very pretty

Kippford is an attractive, quiet, small village built along the estuary with lovely views. A good location for watching shore birds and red squirrels There is a pleasant circular walk through the woods and a small marina. Although it is set away from the main road it is easy to get to other places in the area.

Kippford is a lovely place and looks different during high/low tide.
You can walk to the beach which is actually shells rather than sand which is awesome and during low tide you can walk to the neighbouring areas and quite far out to sea, it's awesome especially if you have a dog. Just make sure you roll your trousers up high enough or wear shorts as some places you kinda sink a little as the sea bed around the area is clay like, though it does make for a good giggle.
There's also some lovely walks which include woodland, one walk in particular leads to the Mote of Mark which is definitely worth going up as the view you get is spectacular. Be careful with the steps as they're not typical stone steps, they're more like uneven rocky steps at different heights and can be slippery, it's not treacherous, just be careful especially if taking dogs/children.
There's also an island which you can walk to during low tide however, during certain times of the year they do ask if you can avoid going over there due to birds nesting/feeding though during this time it may be good for bird watchers as you'd definitely be able to see them with binoculars.
There's a lovely little shop that does fantastic ice cream, my partner had gooseberry & elderberry flavour and it was delicious and refreshing, they also do ice cream for dogs that they top with a little dog biscuit which mine absolutely loved!
Overall Kippford is a lovely place to visit with lovely welcoming people and definitely worth seeing.
