Dabton House is delighted to announce the completion of the renovation of Dabton Lodge, a beautifully restored one-bedroom self-catering accommodation, designed as the perfect cosy retreat and base for exploring Dumfries & Galloway.
 
Located at the main entrance gateway of Dabton House, formerly the wonderful family home of the 10th Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch, the Lodge has been thoughtfully renovated to reflect the refined interior style of the main house, which itself underwent a significant restoration just a few years ago. The result is an elegant yet intimate retreat that blends historic charm with contemporary comfort.
 
The interiors of The Lodge mirror the sophisticated décor of Dabton House, designed by the Countess of Dalkeith, drawing inspiration from the building’s heritage as the former family home of the Duke of Buccleuch. Soft, timeless furnishings, high-quality finishes and a carefully curated colour palette create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, ideal for couples looking for the perfect countryside escape.
 
Designed specifically for couples looking to explore Drumlanrig Castle & Country Estate and wider area of Thornhill and Dumfries, Dabton Lodge offers a secluded sanctuary just moments from Dabton House itself. Offering a dog friendly stay with a haven of dog friendly walking trails right on the doorstep.
For those looking to get married at the house, the Lodge allows the honeymooners or guests the opportunity to enjoy some privacy whilst extending their wedding experience in style. As a fully self-catering property, it provides both flexibility and luxury, making it equally suitable for short romantic stays or longer countryside escapes.
 
The completion of The Lodge renovation marks another milestone in Dabton House’s ongoing commitment to preserving this historic estate while enhancing the guest experience with exceptional accommodation.
 
With its rich history, breathtaking landscapes, accommodation offering and proven capability to deliver exceptional events, Drumlanrig Castle & Country Estate attracts visitors from all over the world, cementing its position as one of the UK’s most outstanding destinations in Scotland. The wider estate offers world-class activities, everything from tours of the main historical attraction at Drumlanrig Castle, gardens, e-bikes, have-a-go clays, walks, fishing etc, which can all be enjoyed when staying at Dabton House & Lodge.
