Discover Dumfries and Galloway and all that it has to offer. You may love to stroll the beautiful beaches, sit and sketch in the forest or take on the huge variety of mountain biking trails!

 

We are located near the Solway Coast and close to the world-class ‘7 Stanes’ mountain bike facility at nearby Dalbeattie, 10 minutes drive. Also in the vicinity is the Galloway Forest Park which is one of just a handful of ‘Dark Sky Parks’ in the western world in recognition of spectacular sightings of the starry skies it affords.

The region’s capital, Dumfries, is a 25 minute drive, and is known for its links with Robert Burns; visitors may explore his house, sample a dram in Burns’ favourite hostelry – The Globe Inn, or find out more about him at the Robert Burns Centre.

Other nearby activities include Colvend Golf Course, Southerness Golf Course and fishing.

Along the coast, discover unspoilt villages, dramatic coastlines, sandy beaches and rocky coves. There is wildlife in abundance with an RSPB Mersehead Nature Reserve nearby. Whitecroft itself has an abundance of wildlife such as roe deer, red squirrels and plentiful birdlife including the majestic red kite.

During times of agricultural activity (lambing, shearing, hay making, feeding calves) we are more than happy for visitors to view or even have a try. This can be arranged during your stay.

Shop, pub and restaurant 6 miles.
