  • "We all loved this place."

    So peaceful and remote, but close enough to Stranraer. The lodge was exactly as written, perfect for our family, loved the disabled access ramp and downstairs bedroom. The lodge was equipped with everything we needed. We’ve stayed in many cottages and this was by far the most outstanding in every way. Loved the personal touches by the owner. We all wish to go back!

  • "Another wonderful stay at Corsewall Castle Farm & Lodges!"

    We absolutely love it here! The house is perfect. You can either go on days out or stay local and spend as much time as you wish in the house. It’s such a peaceful getaway, I can’t praise this house enough. Iain & Marie are always on hand if you need anything. Their children who help out on the farm are lovely and very polite. If you’ve any questions about the farm, they always stop to answer them and have a little chat. Honestly, if you’re thinking about booking this house, just do it, you won’t be disappointed!! We will be back next year!

    With the farm on your doorstep and the coast with all its sea life and wildlife just down the road, you really get a sense of being with nature and peace and quiet which is what this holiday is all about. Cannot recommend this holiday lodge highly enough.

    The location is fantastic, so peaceful and relaxing. The house is very clean and well equipped. We love to cook and there was everything we needed. Lots of space and the bedrooms were so comfortable. The sensor night lights were a great addition as we didn’t need to leave any lights on for the children during the night in case they got up. We went for a meal at the lighthouse and the food was amazing, would definitely recommend. Overall an amazing stay and can’t wait to go back.

  • "We had an excellent week in this very large, spacious and very comfortable holiday home."

    Marie and Ian have obviously put a lot of thought into the design and build of their two holiday homes. They were very welcoming and helpful throughout our visit. The area is slightly remote, which we loved. The house was extremely comfortable and very well equipped, with a huge kitchen/dining area, which we love on holiday. This is great for family interaction. The views out to sea and across Loch Ryan are great and you can watch the ferries coming and going all day. There are lots of places to go and things to do in the local and the general area, although much of this depends on the time of year of the visit. We had a lovely time and would certainly think of coming back in the future and using these lovely homes. Thank you for having us.

  • "What an amazing accommodation, really first class, thank you Marie."

    We were lost within the wonderfully sized rooms and the bonus of a pool table gave our young son the opportunity to learn the game. Plus the local "extras" upon arrival (including homemade Irish loaf!) made our stay even more special. Locally, we loved every minute of the Galloway coast peninsular, the peace, tranquillity & sea air unwound our tired working minds and the property is really close to Corsewall Lighthouse, which is brilliant and their evening meal (a big shout out to Helen, who couldn't do enough to please!) is highly recommended.

  • "This is the best holiday cottage we have stayed in our 40 years of cottage holidays within the UK, mainly Scotland."

    Beautiful house and designed from the start with the user in mind. Excellent kitchen, eating area, lounge with sea views and a wood burner. Extra large bedrooms with en suite facilities, one on the ground floor that can easily accommodate wheel a chair. Cottage was spotless on arrival and and excellent home made Irish loaf, with strong cheese, chutney, bottle of wine and milk. Saw Marie a few times during our stay. I just suggested that a cullender and a slow cooker would be of benefit for the chef of the day. No sooner said, the next day she had been out and purchased both for each cottage. Now that is what I say is excellent customer/owner feedback results! Lovely lady. Hope all goes well with your lambing this year and don't work too hard. Kind regards Peter & Shelley HYDE - Shropshire farming country.

    The journey along the A75 and the arrival at Corsewall Castle Farm dispelled negative thoughts. The house was magnificent in facilities and position. Marvelous views of the sea, Ireland and north up the coast.The ferries plying their trade to Belfast and Larne were a picture day and night. The night sky was a little reticent in its appearance but when it did, wow! An exposure inducing dip in the sea at Lady Bay is a must, as well as for its beautiful location. All plans of meals out were cancelled with a resounding, 'Why?', when the kitchen/dining room was viewed. A holiday house and area thoroughly enjoyed by three generations, aged 8 to 75.

The property

Enjoying an enchanting position on the Northern tip of the Rhins Peninsula, located a few miles from the village of Kirkcolm, is this detached lodge.

With views across to the Kintyre Peninsula, Arran, Ailsa Craig and Northern Ireland, spend the evening watching the sun setting, as ferries pass.

This spacious accommodation is the perfect base for a large group of family or friends looking to spend some time within this picturesque part of Dumfries and Galloway, with a well-equipped base to come back to each evening.

Here, you will be spoilt for choice by the sleeping accommodation, with four well-presented bedrooms (two of which en-suite) situated across both floors to choose from, designed to suit a group of all ages and tastes.

All rooms come with super-king-size beds which can be split (zip/link) into two full size single beds per room.

Look forward to spending your down time within the spacious sitting room, where you can curl up in front of the woodburning stove or enjoy a game of pool in the sunroom and admire the far-reaching views of the Irish sea.

The designated chef of the group will be delighted by the well-equipped kitchen, where a Falcon range cooker takes centre stage before all of the other appliances you will require to cook a delicious home-cooked meal.

Spend a moment or two outdoors where you can roam the large lawn and make friends with the inquisitive farm animals in the adjacent fields before enjoying a spot of alfresco dining during the warmer months.

If you can tear yourself away from this delightful base, take a walk down to the Lighthouse Hotel where you can enjoy a meal made from the best of local fare or head into the village of Kirkcolm for a tasty meal at the local pub.

For those feeling active venture a couple of miles along the road to Lady Bay, a beautiful secluded beach or further afield to the sandy beaches and cliffs of the Mull of Galloway.

Alternatively, discover the Scotland’s most exotic gardens at Logan Botanic Gradens or over 75 acre of gardens at Castle Kennedy.

Or you could even hop on a ferry to Belfast.

Corsewall Castle Farm Lodges is a wonderful base for a family gathering to Scotland. Please note: this property can be booked along side property ID: 947014.

KIRKCOLM

Stranraer 6 miles.

Kirkcolm, formerly known as Stewarton, which was established in the early 17th Century, is a small village on the tip of the Rhins of Galloway Peninsula.

Stranraer is the gateway to the Rhins of Galloway Peninsula and the town’s main attraction is the Castle of St John, which is a ruined four-story tower house built around 1500.
