Galloway Lodge - just right for a treat

A fridge well stocked


We’re on a bit of a, well not a healthy eating thang, but more of a GOOD eating thang… as you could see by the Simon’s Pie post we did a while back!

How I see it, a little of what you fancy does you good. Too much rich choccy or too many cakes and you’re fat, but just a little is OK.

Galloway Lodge Preserves is one such luxury.

They are a family run company in Gatehouse-of-Fleet in the heart of Galloway, devoted to making delicious marmalades, jams, chutneys, jellies and mustard for over 30 years and use only the finest ingredients and cook in small batches using traditional methods. This guarantees a quality product with an authentic taste.



We tried a Raspberry Jam made in very small batches of 18 jars using only the best quality fruit- Glen Ample Raspberries from Perthshire

We also sampled a marmalade too. A rich traditional marmalade made with medium cut peel. Pete liked this one best.

At £2.90 a jar they’re not the cheapest preserves on the market – but quite a good taste. We were impressed and loved our morning toast on the patio just a little touch more that week!

They’re nice as little gifts too, as the jars are very pretty.
