Glentrool Gallery & Craft Shop This community project is run by volunteers. Opening times 10-3 Tuesday to Saturday .

We are a small community project that supports local artists and crafters from Wigtownshire. The gallery is run by volunteers and we charge our artists a lower than average commission fee for selling their work. All profits that the gallery makes go to Glentrool And Bargrennan Community Trust, which in turn benefits the small community of Glentrool and Bargrennan. All work on display in the gallery is produced by people from Wigtownshire and prices are very reasonable, starting at just £2 for a beautifully designed card. We have jewellery, woodwork, original paintings and prints, photography, textiles, pottery and even hand-made furniture for sale in the gallery. It is well worth a visit and we really do have something that will appeal to everyone!

Kicking off with Swim The Lochs!
Join Sarah for a Rise & Refuel Breakfast Swim 🌞
Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th July from 08:00 each day

Start your festival morning the best way possible with fresh forest air, cold water and good company!

You’ll begin with a gentle walk through the trees to the water’s edge before easing into an invigorating guided wild swim surrounded by the stunning scenery of the Galloway Forest.

Afterwards you will warm up with a gentle walk back to the Hive for a shared breakfast. A relaxed and welcoming session perfect for both experienced wild swimmers and those newer to cold water.
