Nestled in an idyllic private woodland setting Forest Lodge offers a lovely relaxing retreat close to Kippford, often described as Scotland's 'Riviera'. Locals refer to this area as The Golden Triangle - Colvend, Rockcliffe and Kippford-and frequent visitors understand why. The climate is temperate as Galloway is touched by the Gulf Stream with many golden, sandy and often empty beaches to explore.For excellent views of the Rough Firth estuary, the Jubilee Path is highly recommended. This was named to commemorate Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee and is the main path between Kippford and the equally charming village of Rockcliffe. There are wonderful views out to sea, and the path passes Mark of Mote, a 100 foot high granite outcrop, with a Dark Age settlement on top. Sandyhills and Rockcliffe are small Victorian bathing resorts and Sandyhills as the name implies really has a beautiful sandy beach! Kippford was once a smugglers' haunt with a wealth of stories and legends to discover and is now a pretty sailing resort with quaint fisherman's cottages. There is a low tide walk from the beach to Rough Island
