For thrill seekers the nearby Galloway Forest Park containing sections of The 7 Stanes Mountain Biking Route offers numerous challenges which are constantly being updated to keep the routes fresh and exciting. It's a fantastic place for mountain bikers and this spring sees the launch of a new route in nearby Kirroughtree Forest. Bikes can be hired from Kirroughtree Visitors' Centre which also has a shop and café open from Easter onwards.
(There is a lockable garage at the back of the house for bikes and any large items requiring storage.)
