The village has a bowling club which welcomes visitors, also sailing / boating / canoeing tuition is available locally.
There are many delightful walks from your door - take a stroll along the beach, which is approximately 50 yards from your front door! Or head into the woodland garden and arboretum of Galloway House Gardens, famous for its spring display of azaleas, rhododendrons and its unique hankerchief tree which flowers end of May / beginning of June. The pretty little sandy beach at Rigg Bay is delightful and the views from Cruggleton Castle are simply breathtaking. Golf and fishing are within easy reach, as are the Galloway Hills and the world class 7Stanes mountain bike trails.
Wigtown, Scotland’s book town, as well as Whithorn and the harbour villages of Isle of Whithorn and Port William, are only a short drive or cycle ride away on quiet roads. The larger town of Newton Stewart, known as ‘the Gateway to the Galloway Hills’ is a short drive away with a wider range of amenities and larger supermarkets. The Moorings certainly does provide the perfect base for couples who want to enjoy a relaxing break away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life
