3 detached cottages on 500 acre estate by the sea


A wonderland awaits

Ever wanted to stay somewhere you could never tire of exploring? Where the kids can safely ride their bikes all day, climb trees and make dens? Only coming back in for dinner and bed?

Where you can walk your dogs all day, through wildflower meadows and ancient woodland, past our private loch and down to our own rocky shoreline - and not bump into anyone else?

Rediscover your inner child and relive your childhood memories with your own children, during a peaceful stay at our private country estate, Orroland, near Kirkcudbright in south west Scotland.

Located right by the sea, with views out over the Solway Firth, to the Irish Sea and Cumbrian mountains, Orroland is a nature lover’s dream, with easy access to some of the best mountain biking in the UK.

Escape the crowds. Isolate. And recharge. The chances are you will never want to leave!

Meet the owner

Melinda Kennedy

The Kennedy family has been at Orroland since 1973 when we arrived to find sheep grazing in the gardens and almost not a tree in sight. Over the Kennedy years, Orroland has undergone a complete transformation with a great deal of tree planting and landscaping, the digging of the loch, building of the pavilion and a continuous stream of other interesting projects and improvements which combine to create the character of this magical space. This is a three-generation enterprise (AKA passion!) and comes to you with our love.
