Knockinaam Lodge
Knockinaam Lodge is a five-star former shooting lodge in Dumfries and Galloway with spectacular views over the Irish Sea. It has a rich history and once hosted a clandestine meeting between Churchill and Eisenhower as they planned the D-Day landings. It has been converted into a luxurious hotel with 10 bedrooms and AA 3 Rosette restaurant. Nestled in a private cove, the location and facilities make this a true retreat from the hustle and bustle.
Perfect for a secluded beach escape.

About the Hotel
