The area around Covenanters Cottage is a cyclist's paradise.  Apart from miles of quiet country roads, Dumfries and Galloway has over 400 miles of sign posted cycle routes.  It's possible to join sections of The National Cycle Route 7 locally, since it  passes through Castle Douglas, Kirkcudbright, Gatehouse of Fleet and Newton Stewart.

There are a number of circular routes from the cottage and details of them will be in your welcome pack.

(There is a lockable garage at the back of the house for bikes and any large items requiring storage.)
