Stunning cottage, 3-beds, 2-baths, 2 sitting rooms. Fenced garden, dogs welcome.

This fully restored scandi-chic 17th century barn offers a cosy escape in the heart of Dumfries & Galloway. We have beautiful off-road walks starting right at our door & a short drive will take you to one of the most beautiful - yet undiscovered - coastlines in Scotland. There is a king-size bedroom, a double, and a twin, two bathrooms (one with a huge tub) and two sitting rooms. Everyone room has a desk in - perfect for working from home or getting away & crafting. The kitchen is fully equipped with store cupboard essentials and everything you could need from blender to air fryer. The garden is fully enclosed: perfect to let your dog or kids play & a barbecue on the deck.

We have deer, otters, red squirrels, badgers, kites, & a three-hundred-year-old stone packhorse bridge 100 yards from the door.There is easy access to Castle Douglas, Dumfries, or Stranraer by car or by public transport. We welcome families, lone travellers, LGBTQA guests, cyclists, walkers, kayakers, dogs, & cats.

Superb spacious house, nice garden and decking. A beautiful red kite decided to give us a soaring display one evening :) The cottage is very close to the main A75 so it can be noisy while you're out in the garden. On the plus side, the location gives good travel access to all areas of D&G by bus and by car. Don't miss Threave Gardens - free motorised scooter available for people with mobility problems that would restrict their access to the gardens.
