Ridgeview Lodge is a lovely place to spend a few days where the only noise you'll hear is from the surrounding countryside. Very clean and comfortable with everything you need for a self catering holiday. Not too far to travel to various tourist sites from Gretna Green to the east and Kirkcudbright to the west. Will definitely return.

Lovely lodge in countryside near Dumfries. The area is very peaceful and quiet but within easy reach of Dumfries.The lodge was very clean, spacious and well equipped. The bed was very comfortable (king size rather than double as described).There is a lovely farm shop and restaurant about a mile from the lodge.Wilma, the host, was very friendly and welcoming and we enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the sheep and goats. It's a great place to sit and chill but there is also lots to do in the surrounding area (castles, abbeys, walks, Robert Burns house etc). We saw ospreys at Threave Castle.We would love to return.

We had a short break in this lovely little lodge, breaking a long journey to a holiday further north in Scotland. The owner was very welcoming and the lodge had everything we needed. We enjoyed seeing the sheep, lambs and goats in the field outside.
