The two bedroom cottage is well equipped and very comfortably furnished including a gas fired stove in the sitting room. Making it a perfect place to relax after a day of adventuring to discover the many delights of this wonderful coastline and contrasting landscapes of natural beauty. The paved patio garden with seating and attractive flower borders and beds is a haven for wild life and catches the sun most of the day, making it an ideal spot to sit to enjoy the tranquillity of the area.

The village has the well known Gem Rock Museum where there is also a cafe, a Heritage Museum and craft shop as well as a general store and the butchers.

South West of Scotland is well known for its mild climate, attractive unspoilt countryside and for the diversity of the outdoor and recreational pursuits.

Logan Botanic Gardens, Castle Kennedy and Threave Gardens are all within easy reach as well as many smaller gardens and nurseries.

Nearby Wigtown, Scotland's Book Town is a must, as is the bustling market town of Castle Douglas. Both have a variety of craft and gift shops to explore together with good quality tearooms and cafes for meals out. The Artists Town of Kirkcudbright is also within a short drive and has a number of art galleries and studios due to connections with the “Glasgow Boys and Girls” historic art groups.

The cottage is conveniently situated for walking in the nearby Galloway Hills and cycling along some of the numerous designated cycle routes in the area, as well as the cycle routes of the Seven Stanes mountain bike tracks including the well known centre at Kirroughtree. National Cycle Route 7 passes close by with a local ride to the Cairnsmore of Fleet National Nature Reserve. The Galloway Forest Park offers numerous walks and bike trails and is a premier Dark Skies Park as it is a superb location for star watching.

Poor listing

The property is lovely. The problem is the listing on Vrbo does not explain the pricing correctly and our full party details were not passed on . Resulting in us having pay extra money the day after we arrived . And the cottage is not worth that amount of money.
