Lochside Glamour: Harriet's Lodestar Lodge with Private Dock on Seaside Estate

Named after Harriet Tubman, our eternal heroine, for using the night sky to lead her way to freedom, this lodge is an enticing retreat to dream the day away while planning brave endeavours.

The living room features a golden velvet sofa and art deco mirrors. An Eames-inspired armchair creates an additional reading nook by the window. The entire living area is covered in a restored Iranian hand-woven wool rug. The kitchen has a dine-in area with acrylic Louis XV chairs, all with reclaimed engineered hardwood floor.

The downstairs bedroom contains a trundle bed with thick Orthopedic mattress and a memory foam topper. This trundle bed can be converted into two single beds as required. Alternatively, this bedroom can be used as another lounge or dedicated workspace. A full en-suite bathroom with rain shower is also in the downstairs bedroom.

The second bedroom takes up the entire top floor. Here you'll find pale lemon walls with a Botticelli-inspired headboard, in the shape of a seashell. An exceptionally comfortable king size bed awaits you, with meadowland mural to evoke dreams of rambles. A contained bathroom features a rain shower and in-room basin.
The lodge has its own lawn and is surrounded by woodlands. There is an outdoor tub and a separate garage with washer, dryer and freezer.

Just a few steps from the patio outside Harriet's Lodestar is Dunskey's Upper Loch. Here you'll discover a private dock for you with an outdoor table and chairs. It is a perfect spot to take morning coffee, or practice yoga with the swans peeking at you in the distance.

An excellent property, the Lodge was extremely well equipped, the linen and bedding luxurious and everything very clean. The fire pit and the table and chairs at the end of the lodges private pier made the outdoor area even more special. Overall a great holiday destination

Lovely isolated stay - Good for a Getaway
We stayed here as a family of 4 with 2 teenage children. The property is very clean and has a great and well equipped kitchen. There are 2 excellent sized showers and 2 toilets. Lovely welcome pack and great food storage for fresh and frozen. Parking is excellent and we enjoyed the grounds. It’s lovely and quiet with a lot of nature! The road by the house is not too busy, and the property is not far from Portpatrick, a quiet town. Good access by car to a few local beaches and a good location for going running. Great parking of course and we enjoyed the food bought from the estate too.
