Comfortable, well-equipped lodge (good selection of books and games) in small, quiet park. Owner was friendly and responsive by e-mail.

There are many nice places to visit in the area (castles, museums, walks) at driving distance. Shops in Dumfries at 10 min drive. Nice restaurants in Kirkcudbright. Edinburgh at 2 hours drive via highway.

Recommended for a family stay in the beautiful Dumfries & Galloway area.

We have stayed at Heron Lodge several times and will be back again later this year. The lodge itself has every thing required for a pleasant stay. It is clean, comfortable and well-maintained. The location is second to none, surrounded by beautiful forests with walks for all ages and abilities.
Being able to take the dog was the main attraction originally, but we have returned again and again owing to the location and the quality of our stay there.
The dog also loved the fact that we were able to take him for long walks straight out of the door with no lead and no car travel required.
We will be back!
