Beautiful views, very quiet and sedate. Wild life and farm animals great company. Lodge made us wish for a one full time.

A beautiful location close to local amenities. Very quiet and tranquil and you are delighted by the plethora of wild life witnessed whilst sitting in the living room our out on the porch. A truly amazing place if you are looking for somewhere to experience utter peace, and located within easy reach of all the nearby historical features that the lower part of Scotland has on offer.

Ridgeview Lodge is a lovely place to spend a few days where the only noise you'll hear is from the surrounding countryside. Very clean and comfortable with everything you need for a self catering holiday. Not too far to travel to various tourist sites from Gretna Green to the east and Kirkcudbright to the west. Will definitely return.
