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.

We had a lovely time at Corriedow. The peacefull and quiet location was the highlight for us, and the views were absolutely stunning. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean, and we really appreciated the thoughtful touches: a welcome basket waiting for us on arrival and a fridge stocked with essentials, which was such a nice surprise after a long journey. It's clear a lot of care goes into making guests feel looked after. We'd happily stay again and would recommend Corriedow Cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful break with gorgeous views.

Amazing stay at Corriedow. The lovely hosts have thought about everything and more so the house is so well equipped and comfortable and there was an exceptional welcome hamper on arrival filled with so many treats as well as all the essentials. Location is great, lots to explore. We sat for hours gazing through the picture window at the wildlife and watching the weather change across the glen. House is very clean and well equipped. This was our second stay at Corriedow and we cannot fault it!

Peace, tranquillity & solitude, the gentle rhythms of country life, are but a few of the pleasures that await. Coupled with the warmest of welcomes throughout our stay, what's not to like. We are sure to return..
