Glamping in the peaceful outdoors
Corriehall Stopover is a small farm made up of 8 acres of grassland and is based between Cargenbridge and Lochfoot which is approximately 3.5 miles from Dumfries town centre. Situated in beautiful countryside directly on cycle route 7 and central to the 7 Stanes. We live on the farm with our horses, which we imported ourselves from Southern Spain, along with our dogs and farm cats.
A little history...
Many years ago we believe Corriehall was built and used to house drovers overnight as they passed through with their animals for market and you can still see a strange “kink” in the boundary wall to the roadside where we believe animals could pull off the road to take fresh water from the overflow from the well that served Corriehall.
With all this in mind we came up with the idea of creating Corriehall Stopover for the many cyclists that visit the area for both the mounting biking and touring therefore utilising Corriehall for the passing travellers once again.
For our friends on 2 wheels
We are particularly close to Mabie Forest and Dalbeattie Forest and the forest of Ae are in the nearby region all of which have excellent mountain bike trails.
And much much more!
There’s plenty to see and do including fishing at the local lochs, lots of golf, and water sports at Castle Loch in Lochmaben, such as kayaking, sailing and paddle boarding- only 15 miles away!
We also provide clothes washing and drying facilities.
There is a local bus service which runs into Dumfries and ends at the train station which will stop directly outside Corriehall which finishes around 7p.m. allowing the further exploration of the area.
Shepherds Huts
Our shepherds huts provide accommodation for one, two or four people. All bedding and towels are provided.
Motor Homes
We have 5 motor home hard standing pitches that come with 16 amp electric hook-ups for motorhomes. Our motorhome pitches are situated away from our Shepherds huts making an ideal location for passing travellers visiting Dumfries & Galloway and taking the scenic route between Dumfries and Castle Douglas.
