OUR VISITORS

They either share a love of the countryside and its peace and quiet or pitting themselves against it on a bicycle or in a boat. 

Mountain bikers come for the 20km track that passes on the hill behind as well as others at nearby Drumlanrig, Mabie and Dalbeattie.  A drying room, pressure washer and bike lock-up is available for their use.   Canoeists also love the drying room.

Walkers and birders also access the hills and paths from the back of the farm.   The mature stands of lichen covered fir and larch have a rich under story of ferns, fungus and flowers.  In spring the ditches are thick with tadpoles and newts and deer, red squirrel, crossbill and goshawk are occasionally glimpsed through the treesr.  Buzzard, kestrel, sparrow hawk, owl, woodpecker, siskin, jay and raven are common sights.

There are streams and meadows and ponds around the farm and the hedgerows and roadsides are thick with rasps, brambles and bilberrie.  There is much for kids of all ages to explore.
