Gorsebank

A lovely site with friendly staff. They'll pre-warm the hot tub for your first night. The wigwams are warm and dry, with a kettle and a small fridge. You can cook over a fire in your own space or use the kitchen. Bathroom and showers are clean and modern and just a 30s walk away. Good facilities block with a kitchen, washing up area, and drying room. Forest walks and forest biking paths start from the site, and there are plenty of other activities listed. We had a lovely time!

This was a fantastic glamping experience! The pod (Nith) was plenty big enough for two of us with a lot of stuff! Includes a kettle and mini fridge. The private shower and toilet block was great, just a short (well-lit but take a torch so you don't tread on the beautiful frogs!) walk up a gravel path. Nice hot shower. The wood-fired hot tub was awesome, and easy to light and heat up. Nice to have a fire pit too. The other pods a dotted around so you have your own space, but not entirely secluded. The location is great, we did a lovely forest walk, and also took a short drive to a coastal walk. Also brill to have access to an indoor kitchen space if it rained, and a laundry room. Highly recommend!

Fishing trip to the coarse lake, enjoyed a good day catching Carp and a couple of Tench. Tackle available to rent and essentials including pellets etc available at reception to buy. Approx 200 yd walk from parking to the lake which was well stocked and tidy with well spaced pegs. Smaller Tench with Common and Mirror Carp, Crucian are mentioned but I was a little too heavy to tempt them. Had a second visit and was just as successful, recommended!

We stayed here for two nights glamping in one of the contained bliss pods. We had a fantastic time. So very peaceful, comfortable and homely. There is convenient access to the trails in Dalbeattie forest for walking, mountain biking and horse trekking, they also have fishing lakes and off-road segways. Highlight was enjoying the toasty wood fired hot tub with a glass of champagne until well past midnight. Check in and out was seamless and contactless (a result of COVID) but really works well. We had an induction in use of the hot tub once we had settled in and help if needed was a text message away. We will definitely be planning another trip when we need some chill time. Fantastic time, 5 stars doesn't do it justice, thank you Gorsebank👍 Chris & Gillian

Only left Gorsebank today and are already planning our return. We had the most relaxing and cosy few days staying in Bothie 2 and wished we had booked for longer. The owners are so genuinely kind, helpful and lovely, making you feel right at home from the moment you arrive. We loved staying here with the cosy log fire, wood burner hot tub and we added on the gas BBQ which was used daily. The farm itself is full of amazing wildlife, gorgeous horses and a lovely wee cat who would come for a visit and a cuddle daily… The walks were beautiful, views were incredible and the whole place is so well kept. And I cannot stress how peaceful! Genuinely one of the most relaxing breaks we have ever had and cannot wait to return! If you’re looking for a rustic, relaxing and cosy break to just completely unwind, book immediately!
