Great care has been taken over the conversion of the building to ensure that the original character of the mill is retained whilst providing a superb living environment. Crossmichael village is just a short walk from the property and offers a small inn serving meals and a village shop. The busy rural market town of Castle Douglas is less than a ten minute drive away, offering a wide range of amenities. These include a range of interesting independent shops, art galleries, a community run theatre which doubles as a cinema, cafes, restaurants & pubs, a swimming pool, a 9-hole golf course, and a small independent brewery.
Loch Ken lies to the back of the village with excellent bird watching opportunities, the loch also has many water sports available including free fishing on parts. The nearby Galloway Activity Centre provides both water and land based activities for all ages including sailing, canoeing and paddle boarding.
The Galloway Forest and Solway Coast are easily reached with their wonderful wildlife, scenery, peace and tranquillity. The forest also has excellent provision for active pursuits with the 7Stanes Mountain Bike Network offering routes for all levels of ability. The Galloway Forest was designated Britain's first dark Sky Park and on a clear night, due to the low levels of light pollution the star gazing opportunities are unsurpassed.
If you want to explore the local culture and history of the area you are spoilt for choice with local sites such as Threave Estate with its Castle and gardens, Sweetheart Abbey at New Abbey and a short drive away the Robert Burns Trail to Ayr or visit one of his favourite hostelries at the Selkirk Arms Hotel in Kirkcudbright or his farm at Ellisland near Dumfries.
