[Closed] Kirroughtree - where to stay

Kirroughtree is great! and what better than to stay at the b&b run by the girls who run the bike shop in kirroughtree forest!

stayed there last year and its great!

their b&b is in castle douglas by the way - half way between kirroughtree and ae 🙂

pubs close by, and a big tesco across the roundabout for supplies.

Second what cp says, The Break Pad is a great B&B. Huge breakfasts, bike friendly (garage/workshop/bike wash), it's run by the two girls who own the bike hire place at Kirroughtree and it's convenient for Mabie, Ae and Dalbeattie as well.

Cheers guys, BreakPad looks like a nice place and decent price. Looks like we have our kip for the night sorted!

"do not miss dalbeattie some do not like it but thats because its hard there is talk of making parts of it easier because of complaints so ridee it now" ... What bits would that be ? rode Dalbeattie a few times nothing too hard I wouldn't think.

i dont think its too hard however the fc have been saying that people find the route avoiding the slab eg red route is "dangerous"
all I am saying is ride dalbeattie its under rated by some or so it appears
and there already have been "IMPROVEMENTS" MAKING IT "safer"

Aye ..sad to hear that the bit around the slab is prob one of the better bits of the red aswell .. Must admit it aint one of my fav trails feels like a man made gravel trail IMO but worth it if you've never tried it.

thanks CP for your recommendation - always nice to hear positive stuff - makes us feel all warm inside and like all the hard\ work is worth it!
