About this property

Savour the natural beauty of the Glenkens with a stay in this delightful country cottage, a charming and comfortable base for couples and smaller families seeking a little extra space. Hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and wildlife spotting are all within easy reach, with nature reserves, scenic lochs, and long-distance walking routes close by. Discover Loch Ken (6.5 miles), a hub of outdoor adventure offering water sports, fishing, and the chance to spot red kites soaring overhead. The Galloway Activity Centre (4.5 miles) provides a range of guided experiences on land and water, while the nearby town of New Galloway (4.5 miles) offers useful amenities alongside a golf course and historic castle. You can also join the Southern Upland Way – Scotland’s renowned coast-to-coast trail – or explore the Galloway Forest Park, a designated Dark Sky Reserve.

This semi-detached, two-storey cottage has been tastefully decorated with a light, contemporary style and clean, minimalist interiors. Step up and inside via the entrance hall and choose between relaxing in the inviting lounge or heading into the separate dine-in kitchen. The lounge is a cosy retreat, complete with comfortable seating, a wood burner, and a Smart TV, while the well-equipped kitchen provides everything needed to prepare meals with ease. Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms and a family shower room featuring a spacious walk-in shower. The master bedroom is a bright and airy king-size room, enjoying peaceful woodland views and an abundance of natural light. The second bedroom is a stylish single, with a pull-out bed that can be made up when required.

Outside, the wild, woodland garden invites exploration, with mature trees and an open lawn where children can play freely. As the garden is unenclosed, supervision is advised. A patio area with outdoor seating offers a lovely spot to relax, while private parking and secure bike storage add practical convenience to your stay.
