It is Close to three of the Seven Stanes Mountain Biking routes (Dalbeattie, Mabie & Ae Forests) The food town of Castle Douglas is a 35 minute drive away and the "artist" town of Kircudbright is a little further along the coast. There are lovely walks along the coast and pretty coastal villages to explore nearby such as Sandyhills and Rockcliffe, plus the popular sailing village of Kippford. The Award Winning Farm shop at Loch Arthur is nearby and the delightful village of New Abbey the setting for Sweet Heart Abbey is 15 minutes down the road.

Notes on Carsethorn (400 metres along the beach from South Carse) During the 18th and early 19th centuries, this small, tranquil coastal village was a busy port with regular sailings to Liverpool, The Isle of Man and Ireland. Some 21,000 emigrants left Scotland from here for a better life in the New World . But the arrival of the railway in Dumfries in 1850, along with the cost of the many improvements needed to navigate the channel, led to a gradual decline in seaborne trade and, by the early 1900s, there was very little left. Today, Carsethorn is a pretty village consisting of a line of cottages facing out across The Solway Firth. Almost certainly the biggest attraction in the village is The Steamboat Inn - a popular local hostelry with both residents and visitors alike, serving lunches, dinners, fine ales and spirits seven days a week, all year round. The local beaches and the bird-rich merse where millions of seabirds live or over-winter are part of the rich natural heritage of the parish. Visitors to the National Nature Reserve on the far side of the Nith come round by the coachload to watch birds on the Carsethorn foreshore, before continuing to the nature reserves at Southwick and Mersehead. And whilst the original pier is no more, the beach is frequently visited by pleasure boats and yachts, some of which anchor in the mouth of the burn north of the old pier.

Curlew Lodge is named after the curlews that frequent the foreshore and the field in front of the chalets from autumn to early spring. It is slightly set apart from two other lodges - on the right as you look at them - with an orchard of fruit trees around it. This lodge has two bedrooms, one double and one twin.

The marvellous wildlife and birdwatching at the RSPB Mersehead Reserve just a few miles along the coast should not be missed.
