Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Dumfries and Galloway

Perfect place to start or finish the Hadrians wall path. Staff were great. So much room on offer in their apartments.

A perfect base for the start of our Hadrian’s Wall Cycle adventure. We did a Solway loop to Silloth, then Carlisle and back to Bowness on Solway (around 56miles)

Colin contacted us prior to our stay to give us accurate details of where to go, and what to do. He gave us his contact number incase there was any issues, and told us to contact him anytime. His apartment was very clean, the bed was very comfortable, and the photos do not do it justice.. and the views from the balcony were 100%. The location was perfect for what we was looking for. We would highly recommend ,and definitely stay there again.😊

The loft apartment at Bowness House Farm exceeded our expectations- in fact the whole courtyard complex did. The apartment was beautifully styled and thought through with an excellent kitchen area, spacious en-suite, very comfortable sitting area and bed. We loved the details and finish- in fact I wish we’d been staying for a week rather than one night. Michelle, the manager, was welcoming and helpful. She also cooked our delicious breakfast this morning. The restaurant is full of warmth and character and we loved the inspirational sayings from 20th century icons ( including Nelson Mandela, Bob Marley and Stephen Hawking), the sparkling lights and the general ambience. We also throughly enjoyed our evening meal there. This was such a beautiful place I’d cycle the 150 miles back just to stay again !

Fantastic apartment for a weekend stay. Extremely comfy bed and well stocked kitchenette. Rebecca was great with her communication and check in was quick and easy. The hotel facilities included in our stay were great, with a pool (free pool towels available), sauna, bar/restaurant and kids games room. Lovely grounds, quiet and peaceful. Easy access to Keswick. Would definitely recommend to anyone wishing for a quiet, peaceful stay clowe to other towns and attractions.

great value for money. the rooms/ toilet was sturdy clean! other areas of the house were always accessible and I loved how the whole house was nicely maintained. David himself is very welcoming. I had a good chat with him over a cup of tea. I would definitely recommend his airbnbs because of the maintenance as well as David's welcoming personality

Lovely home – very grand with high ceilings, spacious rooms, etc. only 100 meters or so down to the beach and easy access to shops plus lots of parking on the property. We had a really lovely stay with three couples from Australia. Couldn’t recommend this highly enough as a great venue for a group stay. Just found it a little hard to get in touch with the host the day before check-in but all ended up fine.

I stayed one night at Gavin’s. I’m not sure what I expected but it’s an outstanding place. Clear instructions on how to get in and check out. The room it self is very private and has everything you could need for probably a week away if need be. His attention to detail and ideas for decor was impeccable. Bed linen lovely and crisp and bed super comfy.
