Bed in Longtown (94673)

About this property

A contemporary bungalow surrounded by undulating countryside 5 miles from Gretna, an historically and culturally important town close to Scotland's border with England. The dog-friendly bungalow features an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, a large enclosed garden with a BBQ hut and easy access to both National Cycle Route 7 and Hadrian's Wall: in short, an ideal base for an active family or group getaway to the countryside!

The property is located at the end of a narrow farm track that sits just off a country lane winding its way through lush green farmland peppered with woodland beneath an endless sky. Its fresh and bright exterior is beautifully complemented by its quirky interior, which is blessed with bold colours and trendy soft furnishings practically arranged across hard flooring. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is a welcoming space filled with comfortable seating options all within a few paw prints of a wood burner and garden views. Three inviting bedrooms - an en-suite king-size bedroom and two double bedrooms - are found across the hallway, while a family bathroom (complete with its own TV) is close by. The outside space enjoys panoramic country views and comprises a lawned area, a hot tub, a BBQ hut for indoor dining and a patio area with seating.

National Cycle Route 7 is within 500 metres of the bungalow and is an open invitation for those who love lengthy two-wheeled expeditions. The quaint town of Gretna is just 5 miles from the bungalow, while historic sites and important battlefields surround Carlisle (10 miles) a convenient launchpad for exploring Hadrian's Wall.
