There are also 2 children play areas within the park and several walks around the Loch and surrounding countryside of varying lengths.

The house makes an excellent base for exploring Southern Scotland with the Solway Coast's sandy beaches and rocky coves close by, as is Loch Ken for a more extensive selection of water based activities and excellent coarse fishing. The Galloway Forest Park, (also nominated as Britain's first Dark Sky Park) provides plentiful tracks and trails for walkers and mountain bikers of all abilities. It is excellent for star gazing due to the low levels of light pollution and also bird watching including a Red Kite Trail. Slightly further afield are the nationally important wildfowl reserves of rspb Mersehead and Caerlaverock WWT
