The place
Just south of the massive Galloway Forest Park, Little Beach shepherd’s hut stands proudly on the coast, overlooking the Irish Sea. This is an ideal spot for couples either looking to adventure into the region, chasing their hound up challenging hikes or escaping hectic city life in search of chilled-out coastal strolls. Nearby there are places to sample fresh seafood at eateries, grab local produce, sip fiery whiskies or even indulge in wine tastings. Venture out or keep it mellow by staying in, hopping from the outdoor copper bathtub to a prime perching spot on the comfy sofa by the wood burner. Whether it’s following your dog along the coastline, or star-spotting in the unpolluted night sky from your veranda, Little Beach is an unmissable stay.
