For those wanting to completely unwind, there is a sauna room and heated jacuzzi. There is also an outdoor swimming pool for guests to enjoy during the summer months, as well as a splash pool and fun slide for the little ones to enjoy. For all year round fun there is an outdoor play park to entertain children.

If you want to venture outside the park there are some great coastal walks nearby, with a track down to the beach straight from the site, although the track is quite close to the cliff edge so it isn't suitable for buggies.

For some other great nearby beaches, it's just a 25 minute drive to Rigg bay or St Medans beach, so take a picnic and enjoy the caves and rock pools at low tide!

In the opposite direction, you can take a 50 minute walk, or 5 minute drive to the quaint seaside village of the Isle of Whithorn where you can enjoy local restaurants, a tearoom, or the local art gallery. Here you can also visit the roundhouse to learn more about St Ninian and his pilgrimage.

The local beaches and the rocks at Burrowhead allow sea fishing, so bring your rod!
