About Us

After working with young people for many years, your hosts Mark and Julie know how important it is to create a peaceful eco-friendly environment for future generations.

Mark and Julie are delighted to welcome you to their peaceful haven following the restoration of the old stables in 2022.

The Manse, their family home, is thought to be on the site of a medieval monastery and Mark and Julie have created a haven of tranquility in the gardens with wild flower meadows, abundant birdlife and a beautiful pond.

“We are looking forward to welcoming you at Kirklands and hope that you can truly rest and enjoy our peaceful haven in Dumfriesshire.
