Culsharg is a non-MBA bothy that sits on the Merrick Trail in the Galloway Forest Park. It's quite close to the road so probably a busy bothy, we didn't have time to stop and explore inside unfortunately.

2024 update: There's no windows or doors, but there's a roof that looks pretty solid. Use at your own risk, of course 🙏

The bench is no longer there. There was a swallows nest in the room to left of door so try not to disturb it. Beautiful views from it and neighbouring burn
