Local Area

Colvend, on the Solway coast, in a lovely unspoilt corner of Scotland, is an Area of Natural Beauty and with a year round mild climate provides the perfect location whatever your interests may be. Sandyhills beach is a short walk away, while the rock pools at Rockcliffe are just two minutes by car. The coastal walks offer incredible views across the Solway Firth to the Lake District.

The picturesque village of Kippford with its small boats and yachts offers a selection of restaurants and pubs serving local produce and “real” local ales and it is only a five minute drive away.

The region of Dumfries & Galloway is steeped in history and rich in opportunities for outdoor activities or pure relaxation - whether you are looking to do very little and relax or seeking adventure, there is something for everyone.
