2 Bed Cottage in Sandyhills

About this property

Sleeping four, this stone-built cottage awaits for small families, couples or friends seeking a coastal escape with plenty of outdoor space. Set on the northern shore of the Solway Estuary, it’s perfect for nature lovers, with birdwatching, wildlife trails and lovely walks right on the doorstep. The nearby RSPB Mersehead reserve offers beach walks, sand dunes and opportunities to spot barnacle geese and other wildlife. Families can enjoy rock pooling at Rockcliffe (6.5 miles), crabbing at Kippford (7.5 miles) or visiting attractions such as Mabie Farm Park (13 miles). For those keen to explore further, Dumfries and Galloway is rich in history, with castles, abbeys and scenic cycling routes all within easy reach.

This semi-detached cottage offers comfortable, single-level living and welcoming interiors. The lounge/dining room is the inviting hub of the home, featuring plush seating, a dining table and a wood burner – ideal for unwinding after a day exploring the coast. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything needed for a self-catering stay, including modern appliances and ample workspace. There are two bedrooms: a double bedroom with a classic, homely feel, and a twin room that's great for children or friends sharing. The family bathroom includes a bath with a shower over, offering flexibility for both quick morning rinses and relaxed evening soaks.

Outside, the enclosed garden provides a safe space for both children and dogs, with outdoor seating for morning coffee or evening drinks. Guests also have access to a larger shared farmhouse garden with play equipment, including swings and a slide. Off-road parking is available on-site.
