Venture Off Park

The market town of Dumfries is a short drive away with its many amenities and attractions, including the home of Robert Burns. At the pretty village of New Abbey, you can visit romantic Sweetheart Abbey, the 18th century water-powered Corn Mill and the Shambellie House Costume Museum.
