Kirkcudbright 28 miles.
The market town of Newton Stewart, famous for its salmon and trout fishing, lies in a superb location between the serene rolling countryside of the Machars to the south and the Galloway Forest Park to the north. The area is steeped in history. The first Christian missionary to Scotland landed at The Machars, founding the first church in AD 397 in Whithorn. The Whithorn Dig Visitor Centre lies on the site and displays material dug up over years of excavations. The beautiful coastline is a mixture of sandy beaches and rocky shores teeming with birdlife. Inland there is superb walking country in the Galloway Hills and Forest Park. Sailing, riding and fishing are all available locally and there are plenty of excellent courses to keep the keen golfer busy.

Superb, private accommodation. Very dog friendly and in a superb location with the best views ever. Will book early again next year.

Superb property for 2 people and dogs. Quiet but convenient location for amenities of Newton Stewart and for touring the area. Lovely views and safe enclosed, beautiful garden.
Mrs Martin, Heanor, April 2012
This cottage is situated in a brilliant part of Scotland where the locals are very friendly and there are lots of interesting places to see. The view from the cottage window is superb with lots of wildlife to see.
Mr Cluckie, Cupar, October 2011
The location was excellent. It gave a feeling of isolation and yet it was only a mile away from the town and it had a lovely traffic free path. It was within easy reach of some of the most beautiful walks and views. All the walks were easy to follow and well marked which meant for a worry free walk in the wilderness. The cottage was so comfortable and we would have been happy just to sit in front of the picture window and watch the ever changing scene. We were extremely happy with the warmth, space and comfort. We can't wait to go back and visit. That is why l would not recommend this property to our friends as it would probably be fully booked when we tried to go again, that would never do!
