Well equipped tidy cottage in gated farm. Sliding doors onto patio area which overlooks a field visited by deer daily. Located close to Galloway Forest walks and Dark Skies.

The view was amazing and luckily we had the weather to sit outside to enjoy it. The location was perfect for exploring the area. The owner was very nice and left us some welcome gifts.

A lovely clean, warm single storey bungalow in a great location just outside Newton Stuart (15 mins walk into town). Very well equipped and comfortable. We loved having access from our little patio into the field for our dog to have a run. We were visiting for the walks and scenery in the area and weren't disappointed. Beautiful area and no crowds.
