Riverview Lodge is a charming, timber cabin located in a rural, residential area. Situated in a delightful wooded setting, a haven for wild birds and animals, it boasts spectacular views over the Urr estuary, an area of outstanding natural beauty. It is in easy walking distance of the picturesque sailing village of Kippford that has two excellent Inns and is situated in one of the most scenic parts of Scotland. The Victorian seaside village of Rockcliffe is just a 30 minute walk away through the forest or along the famous Jubilee Path.

The lodge is reached by several steps up to the balcony that runs the length of the property. From here there are lovely panoramic views from the Kippford yacht moorings to the South, past the peak of Screel and on to the meandering estuary at Palnackie in the North. Constructed of real cedar the lodge is wood paneled throughout giving it a natural warmth and simple charm.

The open plan living area has double doors opening onto the balcony. There is Sky Freeview TV, a DVD player and video player as well as a selection of films, games and novels. A wood-burning stove completes the cosiness of this rural retreat.
The fitted kitchen includes fridge, electric hob, oven, extractor, washing machine and microwave. There is also a breakfast bar - handy for quick snacks or for when there are just two guests in the lodge.
Both the double and twin bedroom are snug and warm with upgraded electric heating as well as a choice of natural feather or hollo-fibre pillows and pure new wool tartan throws. The double has French doors opening onto the balcony and a luxury feather mattress topper.
The bathroom has both bath and shower over.
