    The lodge was ok, equipped with everything needed in a home from home. The beds were comfortable. Secluded area, with private garden space nice for watching the wildlife. Nice and central for exploring Galloway.

Hildur
An unmissable opportunity to stay in a 16th-century castle. With 7 ensuite bedrooms, victorian lounge, bar, dining area, gym corner and a social area for all age groups, it is perfect for family holidays. The castle is nestled in beautiful forested grounds and has a lovely large lawn, perfect for picnics. There are beautiful nature reserves right on our doorsteps, suitable both for families but also for the more avid mountain biker or hillwalker. The area is also home for many golf courses.
