We stayed here for 3 nights, about 4 miles from Kirkcudbright, in a converted haybarn. Very comfortable it was too.

Nice trip :D

Great pics Gary! Looks like a nice place

[Geodude]

Looks great Gary, fun and memories. Shame MBK wasn't still on here I'm sure that Newton place was her beat area. Best selfie ive ever seen Gary, tells a whole story ;) How did you manage a trip with kids and only a tank bag? I think I over pack.

It was a cracking few days GD, We had great fun.
The girls and I had all of our stuff in the tank bag except for shoes and my waterproofs which went in one of Micks panniers. We're experts at travelling light!!

Beautiful! Looks like a great time!
