The Buoys - a lodge that sleeps 6 guests in 3 bedrooms

Mossyard, home of the McConchie family for five generations, is a traditional working farm situated in a magnificent coastal location with the beautiful backdrop of the Galloway Hills. Mossyard, located 4 miles west of Gatehouse of Fleet, is in the heart of rural Dumfries & Galloway, south west Scotland.

The Buoys, our well-loved and popular original lodge, occupies a commanding and uninterrupted view, not only over the beaches and coves (a five-minute stroll from the door), but down to the Cumbrian Hills and The Isle of Man.

The living/ dining area has sliding glass doors opening out on to a spacious, glass-fronted veranda, and beyond to the sea. Inside, we have a selection of books, games and DVD’s for those wet days, or darker evenings. A basket of fresh local produce is provided on your arrival. and our bed linen is of the highest quality.

We hope you will love Mossyard as much as we do.
