A hotel with a rich history

We are an intimate 10 bedroom property with a great history to tell. This historic hunting lodge has featured in John Buchan’s The 39 Steps, was the boyhood home of Royal Navy submarine ace Lieutenant Commander Malcolm David Wanklyn VC, and played a pivotal role as the secret meeting place for Churchill and Eisenhower as they planned the D-Day landings.

Our other cottage, Shingle Lodge is a luxury, cedar clad self catering cottage, nestled in its own secluded beach cove in the peaceful countryside of Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. The property boasts wonderful sea views across the Irish sea to Northern Ireland and sits within the grounds of Knockinaam Lodge Hotel, a small, boutique hotel with a 3 AA rosette restaurant.
