About this property
Set in the sweeping hills of Dumfries and Galloway is Corriedow, a former shepherd’s cottage which has recently been converted into a contemporary yet cosy holiday home. With 360° views of beautiful Scottish glens, this rural spot is the perfect place to spend time with family and friends.
Imagine waking up to breath-taking views of the Scottish landscape ready for a day of exploring the surrounding glens before returning in the evenings to get cosy around the wood burning stove or watch the sun set from the terrace with a glass of wine in hand.
Corriedow is set in a secluded rural spot in the sweeping hills of Dumfries and Galloway. The 360° views over three glens, The Shinnel, Scaur and Dalwhat and the dramatic Tynron Doon (an Iron Age hill fort) make it a magical holiday destination. The cottage was once used as shepherd’s accommodation but after a recent renovation has been transformed into a contemporary yet cosy holiday home. The spacious open plan layout of Corriedow means it is perfectly suited for families or small groups of friends.
The cottage is situated in the Nithsdale area of Dumfries & Galloway where the star attraction is its picturesque countryside with numerous walks to be taken across the rolling hills of the Southern Uplands or by the river in the Nith Valley. The small village of Tynron is only 3 miles away from Corriedow, while a greater number of local amenities can be found at the nearby village of Moniaive (approximately 4 miles distance) and the small town of Thornhill (approximately 8 miles distance). Moniaive has two hotels, grocers/post office, café/bistro and an amazing Italian restaurant. Thornhill includes two hotels, a bakery, two supermarkets, butcher’s shop, coffee shops, a florist and independent boutiques.

This cottage and the location are absolutely fabulous. The host was great. Provided was with at the most amazing hamper for over the New Year. If you enjoy great views, being remote and away from it all, this is the perfect destination. Amenities are 30 mins away. I recommend this cottage to a family as it is a little too intimate for friends and family together.

If you want peace and seclusion in an extremely well kept and equipped property with open views into the valley; you will struggle to better Corriedow. The property owner was everything you would wish being very pleasant and accommodating. As everything necessary was already provided there was nothing further for Lynne to do but I am certain if there was any issue she would bend over backwards to assist. Would absolutely stay here again and hope circumstances allow us to do so.

Absolutely delightful cottage in a beautiful area. Very comfortable and cosy and a very high standard. Everything was easy to use and bed, pillows and sofa very comfortable. Lovely welcome from Lynne owner, and an amazing array of goodies and treats in basket and fridge. Fabulous!!
