Please have confidence when driving. Once you cross the bridge at Penwhirn, there is a very long private road that can put people off.

Have courage and continue - it will get you there.

Sheep Advice

We would like to remind all drivers that the Estate remains a working sheep farm and therefore we ask our guests to drive extremely carefully along the roads as the sheep do enjoy sitting on the tarmac.

Public Transport

Planes either arrive at Glasgow or Prestwick, both with good rail and bus connections. Trains originate at Glasgow and trundle through the stunningly scenic Ayrshire countryside, before terminating at Stranraer Station - once the UK ferry port to Ireland. From there, taxis are available from the station to the house, a thirty minute drive over the hills - local drivers should know the Lodge, but if in doubt the driving instructions above will get you to the house.
