Westlands Country Park, part of the Wanderwood Lodge Holidays Collection, provides an idyllic country escape in the Borders of Scotland. Nestled among woodlands and offering some lodges with waterside views, this park is ideal for exploring the scenic Dumfries & Galloway region and is conveniently close to the market town of Annan. Known for its clay pigeon shooting, which is a world-class venue utilizing competition-level equipment, the park attracts both seasoned professionals and newcomers. Additionally, guests can enjoy the tranquility of well-stocked fly-fishing lakes, making it a quintessential destination for a Scottish countryside getaway.
For those looking to unwind, the park invites visitors to take leisurely strolls through its beautiful surroundings or simply relax in the hot tub. Upon arrival, guests are required to provide a £200 security deposit via a credit or debit card, which is held and released after a satisfactory accommodation check. While bath robe and slipper sets are available for an additional fee, each guest is provided with one set of towels and one toilet roll per lodge. To maintain a peaceful environment, hot tubs and swim spas are restricted after 11 PM, and noise levels should be kept to a minimum during the night.
The park offers clay pigeon shooting and fly fishing daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, with advance booking recommended to ensure participation. Group bookings, especially single-sex parties, require prior approval from Hoseasons. Additionally, ongoing construction near the reception aims to enhance the park's offerings with a new visitor center, bar, restaurant, amenity shop, and gun room, set to open in Summer 2020. While some facilities may be temporarily suspended due to government guidelines, essential services like takeaway options and laundrette facilities remain available for guests. Nearby attractions include the cultural highlights of the Devil's Porridge and Clan Armstrong Centre, as well as family-friendly spots like Dino Park and Lockerbie Ice Rink.
