Guests can also opt to sample the delights of the Cream o' Galloway Ice Cream Factory - some of the best Ice Cream we have personally ever tasted! Guests can also take walks to Castramon Wood, a 400 year oak wood planted originally to serve the manufacture of Bobbin Reels for the many mills that were in existence in the last century. We are also very close to National Cycle Route 7 where mountain bikers can meander through the many woods/forests and venture up the hills surrounding Gatehouse of Fleet.
