Moffat is the perfect place to stay for a mountainbike holiday. With Mabie, Dalbeatt, Ae and Newcastleton 7 stanes mountainbike courses within easy driving distance Moffat House can offer a place to relax after a good day out on the course. We can provide bike storage and access to outdoor washing facilities for the bikes.

Shooting

Moffat offers superb opportunities for game shooting and the pheasants, partridges and mallards are all locally reared. The season lasts for longer than 100 days per year and whatever your requirements - single guns, full parties, corporate days or shooting holidays - they can all be catered for.

Walking

Scotland is renowned for its outstanding nature, and Moffat is no exception. Surrounded by beautiful hills, the walking paths are many and varied ranging from easy stretches for the beginners to more demanding hikes for the more advanced walkers. Within a few miles of Moffat, you can also find the famous waterfall, the Grey Mare's Tail. Created during the last ice age as an outlet for Loch Skene it has a fall height of around 300 feet.

Sir Walter Scott composed:

Where deep deep down, and far within
Toils with the rocks the roaring linn;
Then issuing forth one foamy wave,
And wheeling round the giant's grave
White as the snowy charger's tail
Drives down the pass of Moffatdale

(Marmion)
