3 Bed Cottage in Colvend, Rockcliffe

About this property

Embrace the smugglers’ coves, sandy beaches, seafront golf courses and mountain biking trails of South West Scotland, staying in this exceptional coastal retreat with space for six guests. This marvellous cottage sits just 1 mile from Portling Bay, a peaceful, sandy haven offering a quieter alternative to nearby beaches such as Sandyhills (1 mile). Both locations boast sweeping shorelines, scenic coastal walks and idyllic picnic spots, with views stretching across to the Lake District hills. Nature lovers will enjoy exploring Bainloch Deer Park (1.5 miles) and the RSPB Mersehead Nature Reserve (4.5 miles), while a local golf course at Colvend (0.5 miles) adds further appeal. For cycling enthusiasts, the renowned 7Stanes trails at Dalbeattie (4.5 miles) offer thrilling routes, or you can join the National Cycle Route 7 from Kirkcudbright (19 miles).

Access the property via a few steps to the front door or through a ramped entrance leading into the utility room. Inside, discover a welcoming blend of comfort and style, with homely décor throughout. The modern kitchen is well equipped with all the necessary appliances and features a breakfast table for relaxed dining. Adjacent to this, the dining room provides a more formal setting, perfect for celebratory meals or gathering together in the evening. The lounge is a separate, inviting space, with patio doors that flood the room with natural light and provide direct access to the garden. Comfortable seating is arranged around a wood burner and a Smart TV. Three bedrooms are located off the main hallway: two doubles and a charming twin.
