  •  Our restaurant provides a wide varied range of home prepared meals, something to cater for all tastes.

The Abbey Arms Hotel is an ideal base for riding three of the 7stanes, the premier mountain biking trails in Scotland. These are:

Mabie Forest (3 miles),one of the early leaders in mountain bike courses in Scotland. It is renowned for its expert level north-shore (  tricky wooden trails ), the longest known as “The Dark Side”. Mabie does however have many other routes for all level of skills.

Forest of Ae (18 miles) offering a superb downhill course for experts together with easier routes.

Dalbeattie (17 miles), renowned for its massive “slab” rock feature.

In addition there is Drumlanrig near Thornhill, which despite not being a 'stane' is regarded as a bit of a jewel and is only a half hour drive away.
There are 8 trails set in a more natural environment suitable for all levels of skills, Drumlanrig is also where the only Scottish museum of cycling is to be found and where the bicycle was invented by Keir Macmillan.
