This Visit Scotland 3 star graded cottage is dog friendly with enclosed garden, home to a wide variety of wild birds, nice and cosy for 2 but also large enough for 6 people. Located in a peaceful private rural setting, overlooking an old hard tennis court, which may be used by prior arrangement with the owners, it has fine countryside views to the south and east. This modernised cottage is adjacent to the stunning tidal Tarff estuary, which supports a wide variety of wildlife and can be viewed from the 2008 footpath to Tongland Bridge and Kirkcudbright.
Ideally placed for exploring and enjoying the beautiful varied nearby coastline and beaches to the south and to the north; the attractive hills and forests for bird watching, fishing, picnics, sailing, cycling, walking and water skiing.
