65 Barend, Sandyhills, Dalbeattie, Kirkcudbrightshire, DG5 4NU

The property

65 Barend is located on a quiet cul-de-sac at the edge of Barend Holiday Village. The lodge enjoys a pleasant open outlook to the front. Barend, Sandyhills is approximately 6 miles from Dalbeattie, 12 miles from Castle Douglas, the "Galloway Food town", and 21 miles south west of Dumfries. Sandyhills Beach is one of the best sandy beaches on the Solway Coast and is a short walk from the lodge. There are lovely coastal and cliff top walks to the villages nearby including Rockcliffe and at Kippford. Barend is an ideal location to explore the Galloway countryside as the area provides excellent outdoor activities such as yachting at Kippford, 18 hole golf courses (adjacent Colvend Golf Course and a short drive to a Championship course at Southerness), fishing in lochs and rivers, the 7 Stanes mountain bike trails and walks in the nearby Dalbeattie and Mabie Forests. There is a Wildlife Reserve at Mersehead on the Solway Coast and a Deer Park nearby. At Barend there is a Farmhouse style complex which provides a private heated indoor swimming pool and sauna, a restaurant and lounge bar, boules courts and a small adventure playground. A fishing loch, owned by Barend, is adjacent to the site, as is Barend Riding Centre. 65 Barend is a detached, single storey lodge of solid log construction. The property has three bedrooms and is beautifully presented throughout. The current owners have made some improvements in recent years, including the installation of new windows and external doors and a new shower room suite.
