Modern 2-Bedroom Lodge with Coastal Views in Dumfries & Galloway

This is the 2nd time we’ve stayed at Gatehouse Luxury Lodges, firstly in Seascape 2 bed room and this year in Cairn Dyke 3 bedroom. The facilities and views are fantastic. The location is ideal for touring around Dumfries and Galloway but there’s lots to do closer to the lodges if you want to chill. We are an adults only party with one elderly parent who has mobility issues. Single level living, no steps into shower and plenty of space to move around with a walking aid were essential for us and these lodges met these needs.

Seascape, at Gatehouse Luxury Lodges is in an idyllic spot, with high end finishes, offering all of your home comforts and more. It provided us with a much needed safe haven, and respite from our busy lives.

The lodges are beautifully located just outside Gatehouse of Fleet, and offer a great base for exploring the breathtaking countryside, coastal towns and forests.

The view through the panoramic window on arrival was breathtaking. Views of the farm, Fleet Bay and the Solway Coast are framed like an artist's masterpiece. It's the kind of view that makes you want to stay forever, and sets the scene for the explorations to come.

The operation itself is efficient, with digital welcome packs, (some update may be required here as a few things were out of date) key safe entry and all of the operating instructions for the property. Donald is very helpful and available should the need arise.

It is apparent that a lot time, thought and love has gone into the design of the lodges, with much consideration given to accessibility - this is rare, and was one of the things that influenced our choice when booking and ultimately made our stay so much easier and more enjoyable. James very kindly purchased a shower seat for my daughter which was very much appreciated.

The accommodation is beautifully presented, spacious and comfortable, and has everything you need.

Seascape has very good accessibility overall allowing for a high level of independence for my daughter which made a huge difference to her.

A tiny note - the bathroom (by the front door with accessible shower) as a wheelchair user, accessing the bathroom and closing the door whilst navigating the bathroom cabinet may take a little practice, as the space is a little tight, but my daughter got the hang of it.

Some assistance will be needed to navigate the trim of the french doors to access the decking from inside the property, but once outside the decking offers a lovely space to sit and take in the stunning views.

The icing on the cake would have been to have more accessibility outside the property, to enable a little more independence to explore, get in and out of the car, and be able to access the garden independently. The path from the front of the property is not wide enough for a wheelchair chair, but you can access the garden via the lawn to the left or right of the property instead, but there is a step up to the decking from this direction.

I would definitely recommend bringing a robust power assist of some description, if you're intending to go on walks. We did manage to find a few wheelchair accessible routes a short car drive away, which would be a good inclusion for the welcome pack.

It was quite easily the most relaxed and enjoyable holiday we have had in a long time, and I would not hesitate to return to enjoy the breathtaking dark skies and have an opportunity to visit the beautiful countryside and walk along Mossyard beach.

We had an amazing family break at Seascape Lodge.
The view from our lodge was stunning and the lodge definitely had a luxury feel. The rooms were modern, clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed.
There were plenty of things to do within a 20-30 minute drive- beaches, woodland walks, galleries, cafes, distilleries, gardens etc.
At the end of our stay, my son left his jacket behind. The owner, James, very kindly arranged for it to be posted back to us.
Many thanks for a wonderful holiday.

June 25,
A idyllic stay in Seascape lodge, the lodge has a stylish look inside and out complete with everything you need for your stay.
What did stand out was its cleanliness, the view as far as the sea is breathtaking.
Watching a variety of birds feed on the fastballs in the day was a joy! Go ahead and book!

We loved our stay at Seascape. The Lodge is superb with everything you need. The views are amaising and surrounding countryside is just beautiful. Lots of places to go and things to do. We'll definitely be back. Donald and the team are brilliant. Friendly efficient and a pleasure to deal with.

A beautiful location and so quiet and peaceful. The lodge ( Seascape) is well equipped and has all you need and more. An ideal base from which to explore the area or just chill. The view over to Fleet Bay is breathtaking. We so enjoyed sitting out on the deck in the sunshine, with a glass of wine in hand!

We have just returned from our second stay at Seascape, and we are already planning a third visit.

*The* perfect place to explore Galloway, situated in the gorgeous village of Gatehouse of Fleet with unrivalled views of the Galloway hills and the beaches. We watched the sunset each night from the luxury of our warm and beautifully decorated lodge.

The lodges are so spacious, so light and airy, and offer the highest in technology, including sonos speakers in the ceiling, to provide that extra special touch without providing a nuisance to any of the neighbours! The owners have thought of everything, including everything you need for a toddler and even, a bike and buggy shed on site. It truly feels like you are secluded when you are here.

This time, we enjoyed exploring more of the beaches (Carrick Bay), Raiders Road and the Otter Pool, Kirroughtree Visitor Centre and the Loch walk and feeding the deer at Red Deer Lodge. However, sticking closer to the lodge, there is still so much to do and see including the pretty high street of Gatehouse of Fleet (Galloway Lodge has so many homemade and locally made goodies) with its various art shops, local park, the bluebells at Cally Woods and flying the kite in our own garden.

It's truly a location that any age and demographic would benefit from a few days there!

We stayed at the 'Seascape' Lodge and had a Fabulous and Relaxed time I couldn't fault anything it was just what we needed. The Lodges are of a high standard with everything you could possibly need and the views and location are Spectacular. The proximity to the local beaches and tourist attractions in the area are perfect. The Owner James couldn't have been more helpful, What a genuinely nice and quality person he is, and the welcome and hospitality from the Dodds family who all live close by was second to none.. If you intend to visit Dumfries and Galloway then you must give this place a try. You won't be disappointed!!.. We will definitely be coming back for return bookings in the future...

We had a relaxing stay at Seascape lodge. The location is peaceful and scenic. Communication with Donald was good.
We know the area well and enjoyed revisiting our favourite places. There is a lot to explore and discover in the area.
My only complaint was that the mattresses on either bed were too soft for me. Along with the duvet being too hot. This is obviously personal choice and has no reflection on the lodge itself.

There is evidence of some building work in process on a plot next to Seascape. Not sure how this will effect the present two lodge’s.
