Something for Nature Lovers
There is so much wildlife to see around Gatehouse of Fleet and in Dumfries and Galloway. www.visitdumfriesandgalloway.co.uk/see-do/wildlife/
The Carstramnn Wood Wildlife reserve is within walking distance from the Lodge and provides a habitat for summer migrant birds as well as roe deer and red squirrels. In the spring there is a carpet of bluebells. www.scottishwildlifetrust.org.uk/reserve/carstramon-wood
Gatehouse of Fleet sits on the edge of the Galloway Dark Sky Park. It's 70 times darker than Edinburgh and a perfect place for star gazing.
