Little Lodge is just perfect in every aspect. Beautifully decorated, with magnificent facilities including a super king size bed. We were met by the owner and housekeeper, who proudly showed us the Lodge. There were many extras including a hot tub, towelling robes and plastic glasses for use in the tub.Thoroughly enjoyed the cabin and definitely recommend.
Adam - Aug 2025

Kellyann - Aug 2025
We can't fault the lodge
Claire - Aug 2025
Booked the lodge for a mini break with 2 friends and it was ideal. The lodge was clearly well maintained and the owners and Ruby the dog were incredibly friendly. Would definitely book this lodge again
Jacob - Aug 2025
We enjoyed our stay at the Little Lodge very much, and would stay again. The lodge was in a useful location for seeing he southwest of Scotland, while also being in a nice quiet location itself.The lodge was well furnished and clean, and we felt very welcomed by the hosts. The fridge was stocked with fresh water and milk when we arrived, and there were tea bags and coffee available for us to use, which was nice after a long drive.We also enjoyed use of the barbecue and hot tub while we were there.One potential issue could be a lack of privacy if the surrounding lodges had peope staying in them at the same time, especially when using the hot tub, though this was not an issue while we were there. We also found the approach road quite bumpy, though this is obviously out of the hosts' control.
cus - Jun 2025
We enjoyed our stay here. It's super clean and well appointed for the stay there.Bed comfort was great , the shower is lovely and powerful, have Internet TV is good and WiFi is great However there is no garden for this lodge. Eateries are very few and a long distance away.

This lodge was immaculate, and everything in pristine condition. The host had thought of everything, and it really was the best equipped holiday lodge we have ever visited. Beautiful place, although its very isolated. Perfect for a break and time to recharge batteries. Highly recommend this accommodation .

We have stayed twice at little lodge and both times have been perfect. The lodge has everything you could possibly need, the owners and Kirsty are so helpful and on hand if you need anything. I highly recommend this accommodation, whether you are a couple or a family, it is perfect. We cant wait to return and have already been looking at dates. Thank you so much for looking after us and providing a 5 star holiday. From Louise and Sam in Yorkshire

We also recommend a visit to Castle Douglas and the Treasure Hunt Treasure Trails. These treasure hunts are great fun for the whole family and are an entertaining way to explore a new town or village. Children will enjoy solving the clues whilst learning about the history of the area. The walking trail is suitable for wheelchair users and those with pushchairs so no one is left out of the fun.
