For your nearest hub of amenities, head to Heathhall, where you can stock up on the essentials and dine out at The Lochar Inn, along with touring the Dumfries & Galloway Aviation Museum.

For further attractions, travel north and take in the grandeur of Drumlanrig Castle & Gardens, or Morton Castle, before returning home for sundowners.

Dalswinton is a small village in the Dumfries and Galloway region of southern Scotland and is located just seven miles north of the county town of Dumfries. The River Nith runs through Dalswinton and the village is also home to a couple of small lochs. On the opposite bank of the river is Charles Jencks magnificent Garden of Cosmic Speculation, which normally opens to the public on just one day of the year. Dumfries is known as the Queen of the South and has history dating back to Roman times. Today it is home to a wide range of shops, bars, cafes and restaurants, as well as a number of traditional festivals throughout the year. To the south of Dumfries is beautiful coastline leading to Gatehouse of Fleet and Newton Stewart, whilst the Galloway Forest Park is just an hour’s drive to the west. A wonderful location for discovering this magnificent region.

    Plenty of walks and bike rides in the area directly from the cottage. The owner came to make sure we were settled in and was very friendly. The cottage itself was very tastefully decorated, comfortable and warm. All you needed in the kitchen. It was quiet and on-site parking. Perfect
