Moffat is an attractive conservation town, coaching stop and 19th Century spa town. Its ’double’ high street has lots of specialist shops and due to its weaving associations you can choose from wool and cashmere in colours to match the local hills. The town lays claim to the narrowest street in Scotland and the shortest street in the UK. According to the Guinness Book of Records, the ’world famous’ Star Hotel, at only 20 feet across, is the narrowest hotel in Britain, if not the world! Moffat is so easily reached and if calculations are to be believed, it is situated one mile south of the centre of Britain! Both Glasgow and Edinburgh can be reached in under an hour and Carlisle is around forty minutes to the south.
The double bed is in the open-plan living room.
Chest freezer available for guests use can be found in an outbuilding.

The cottage was charming, it had everything that we needed. Very nice garden to enjoy morning coffee. The cottage was short walk from the town centre with good selection of shops and cafes. Moffat had nice walks around and also not far from Glasgow and Edinburg. Charlie the host was very welcoming.
