Sitting in the heart of Rascarrel Bay, this sleek lodge in a stylish complex of properties on a working farm offers endless sea views and plenty of serene seclusion. Sleeping two people in one bedroom and welcoming two faithful friends, it’s the ideal country retreat for a romantic couple who want to surround themselves in the wild beauty of Dumfries and Galloway. You’ll adore sitting in the outdoor hot tub as your pups potter happily around the enclosed garden/patio.
Step inside this detached lodge and you’ll find yourself in a spacious hallway where there’s plenty of space to store all of your dog-walking essentials. Explore further and you’ll find the spacious open-plan living room/kitchen/diner. With its impressive floor to ceiling windows, this stylish space really does have the wow-factor. Get busy preparing a romantic meal for two in the bespoke kitchen and take in the lovely sea views from the dining area as you eat. Alternatively, step through the French doors onto the patio and dine alfresco. After dinner, take a dip in the private hot tub as your pups explore the enclosed patio, take a seat on the deck and allow the twinkling mood-lighting to set the mood, or watch a movie in the comfortable living area. At the end of the day there’s a wonderful king-size bedroom to retire to.
Take your pups for a long stroll at dog-friendly Sandyhills Beach (16.5 miles). At low tide, vast stretches of sand are exposed, so your dogs will love it. Alternatively, take your pups to the organic farm at Cream O’Galloway (19.5 miles), where your four-legged friends are welcome in the picnic areas, nature trails, gardens and crazy golf course. There’s also an enclosed dog walk area where you can let them run off-leash.
