Our top five things to do while staying at these large holiday home Dumfries Galloway sleeps 8 | |
The school is set in the Dumfries countryside, surrounded by country walks one particular walk takes you across the hill at the back to Glenkiln outdoor sculpture park where you can find Henry Moore, and Epstein sculptures in a natural setting. |

Threave Gardens is the closest garden which is one of Scotlands most interesting as it is a training college for our future gardeners as well as a showground of interesting flora. There are over 30 other gardens and nurseries in Dumfries and Galloway including Glenwhan and Port Logan. |

Kirkcudbright is known as Scotland's Artists' Town - a small fishing town which was a favourite retreat for the Glasgow Boys including Hornel, Peploe and many other of Scotlands finest painters. This region plays host to the Spring Fling when over 100 artists open their studios to the public. |

The 7 Stanes are Scotland's great mountain bike routes. The school is close to 5 of them so offers the perfect location if you want to do some of the most exciting biking in Europe. The byeways are also ideal for easy family cycling so do bring your bikes with you. |

Hullaballoo in the Robert Burns Centre does interesting and tasty meals all day and is adjacent to the art cinema. For lovely teas in a vintage setting try Mrs Green's tea house or for generous organic meals and snacks, the Green Tea House in nearby Moniaive. The Cavens Arms does excellent local food. |
