Frugaldom

About Frugaldom

Frugaldom is an off grid, nature and wildlife project that is also home to a small herd of rescued and rehomed ponies and goats. We are a recreational project promoting sustainability, frugality and environmental art. As a voluntary organisation and social enterprise, as well as proud supporters of the Galloway and Ayrshire Biosphere, all funds raised contribute towards the running costs and site developments. Our motorhome and campervan Aire provides a no services stopover point for fully-self-contained vehicles only. Although we do not have a booking system in operation, it is always advisable to call ahead to ensure space is available. We welcome well-behaved dogs kept on leads and our visitors are welcome to volunteer while here. We have the ponies, goats, wildlife gardens, small ponds, herb gardens and an on-going tree planting project. Adding to this mix, we also have our resident artists who create all of the environmental artwork and decorative signage that can be seen on site.

Frugaldom is about escaping the humdrum and getting back to nature to relax, unwind and enjoy Galloway's dark skies within a rural setting. There is no nearby street lighting and we are completely off grid. Water is rain harvested, drainage is via soakaways, our minimal lighting is provided by solar panels and the campervan pitches are within a secure area accessed via private track through a gate. The gate is closed overnight.

Arrivals anytime in the afternoon, daylight hours only. Departures before noon.

Please bring everything you need and leave no trace.

We look forward to welcoming you to Frugaldom and our fabulously, frugal project.
