Description
Dumfries 12.4 miles.
Tucked away in the peaceful green countryside some 12 miles from Dumfries, is Glen View.
This detached cottage sits in the middle of a 100-acre forest with wild deer, you can even catch glimpses of these majestic animals coming to drink from the pond within the grounds.
With spacious rooms and lovely stone features, there is a real sense of character throughout this charming abode, making the ideal spot to bring your family and friends for a relaxing holiday.
Step into the open-plan living room and get cosy by the woodburning stove on a cool winter's night.
Find a quiet spot to get your teeth into a good book or get competitive over a board game with the whole family around the coffee table.
Rustle up something delicious in the fully-equipped kitchen, home-cooked meals can be enjoyed over a bottle of wine around the dining table before you unwind into your evening.
The ground level is complete with a king-size double bedroom, a twin bedroom and a family bathroom for you to either relax in the tub after a long walk or enjoy a rejuvenating shower each morning.
Climb the stairs to the second king-size double bedroom, which has a walk-in wardrobe and overlooks the unfenced pond within the grounds, where red squirrels and deer can be spotted.
You can walk straight from the extensive gardens that surround the property, up the hills and into the forest for an adventure with the kids and your four-legged friends.
You are in a beautiful countryside location, however the market town of Dumfries is within easy reach by car, where you have a wealth of shops full of holiday treats and plenty of places to grab a bite to eat and a drink.
You are inundated with walking and cycling trails all around, perfect for those who love to be outdoors and at one with nature.
The Galloway Hills are a must-visit, each commanding exceptional views from the summit over the Galloway Forest Park and you can also discover Caerlaverock Castle just south of Dumfries, with one of Scotland’s great medieval fortresses.
Here at Glen View, you have a superb base for a holiday in Scotland.

What guests are saying
We loved our time at Glenview, the cottage itself exceeded my expectations and the location was exceptional, particularly if you seek solitude and the opportunity to get closer to nature.
Our 2 Border Collies loved the area and their early morning walks along the tracks and within the forests, we saw deer every day and the night sky was pretty spectacular. The cottage was probably one of the best equipped and furnished we have stayed in, and is certainly dog friendly. Nearest shops probably around 30 minutes drive away and the track to the property is interesting, but for us thats a plus if it allows us to get far from the maddening crowds! Stephanie responded quickly to any queries. We had very limited mobile phone coverage but the excellent WiFi provided access to all our needs and a level of reassurance. We would certainly stay at Glenview again and are already looking at the calendar for next year.
Beautiful property and we and the dogs were made to feel very welcome.
Wonderful, peaceful spot, with lots of wildlife. Dogs had the best time ever!! We'll definately return.
Loved our stay at Glenview, such a perfect place for r&r we needed.
Plenty of wildlife around the cottage spoilt the animal lover in me
