News

Our new Galloway Holidays website was launched in December 2011. Many of our popular tours are the same. We have a few new ones for you to consider.

In March we have decided to price our tours as an 'all inclusive price' i.e. the tour arrangement including accommodation, bike hire and luggage transfer. If bike hire and / or luggage transfer is not required we will provide a discount accordingly.

South of Scotland Coast to Coast (C2C) Cycling Tour

There are several Coast to Coast cycle tours around the country. This is a new one!

Inaugural Tour

- We are having the inaugural South of Scotland Coast to Coast Cycling Tour Starting on Monday 30th April 2012.

The 4 day tour, with days of 60, 65, 40 and 45 miles will have 7 cyclists and act as a tester for future Coast to Coasts this summer.

The Portpatrick to Berwick on Tweed route can also be covered by a 5 day, 6 day and 9 day tour with relative less daily cycling distances.

A mid tour rest day or circular tour to where the pedal cycle was invented by Kirkpatrick Macmillan in 1840 in the Nith Valley and to Drumlanrig Castle to the Scottish Cycle Museum with its replica of ther first cycle can also be added as an extra day.  

We have not yet settled on dates for this new tour, probably one a month depending on demand. Please contact us to let us know if you're interested. Cost still to be ascertained.

The Highest Village in Scotland Tour

Wanlockhead is the highest village in Scotland. It is ideal to visit for those looking for a challenging cycle tour or a good place to start from - 7 miles downhill - for leisure cyclists before cycling down thje Nith Valley via Drumlanrig Castle and on to the Solway Coast back to our base at Castle Douglas.

Again this tour has not yet been put on our new website, so please contact us if you need more details and we will get back to you.
