The Area
Glenlee Holiday Houses can be found in the heart of Galloway – a charming, unspoilt corner of south-west Scotland – an area which has lots to discover yet can still offer the comforts and amenities crucial for a good family holiday away from it all.
The villages of Dalry and New Galloway, both two miles away, have a bank and post office, general stores, craft shops, as well as good pubs and cafes. There is a garage in Dalry. The local medical practice has surgeries in both villages. There are 4 Church of Scotland churches in the Glenkens and one Episcopalian Church in New Galloway. There is a Roman Catholic church in Castle Douglas, about 25 minutes away by car.
The Surrounding Area
Often described as ‘Scotland in miniature’ the surrounding countryside and landscape of Galloway are varied:
soft rolling hills,
- pastoral farmland,
- open moorland,
- woods and forests,
- rivers and lochs and
- the sandy beaches of the Solway coast.
