Blackbird At Kirkland is a bespoke glamping pod set in the countryside of Dumfries and Galloway, just 0. 5 miles outside the village of Haugh of Urr and 5 miles from Castle Douglas in Southern Scotland. Designed with intimacy in mind, this single-level pod opens through large floor-to-ceiling patio doors into a completely open-plan living space that feels surprisingly spacious.
