The Land at Laurieston is a 1.276-acre property situated in a private location within the village, with a scenic elevated site featuring grassland and woodland, bordered by the picturesque Laurieston Burn. The land has previously held planning permission for residential development, although this is now lapsed. The area is a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors with its rich wildlife and natural beauty, including the nearby Galloway Kite Trail and Loch Ken, which is home to a variety of birds and other wildlife. The Galloway Forest Park is also close by, offering numerous outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, and birdwatching, as well as the opportunity to experience the UK's first dark sky park.
